Airtac TMIC Guided Cylinder with Guide Unit TMICL25X100
The AirTAC Airtac TMIC Guided Cylinder with Guide Unit TMICL25X100 is a genuine guide-frame (guided) pneumatic cylinder — a Ø25mm double-acting MI mini cylinder built into a twin-rod guide unit running on linear bearings. The guide frame absorbs side load and torque so the 100mm stroke stays true, giving you a ready-to-mount linear slide without a separate guide.

About the Airtac TMIC Guided Cylinder with Guide Unit TMICL25X100
Built around a 25 mm bore, this twin-rod guide-frame unit pairs an MIC round-body cylinder with linear bearings to deliver precise, square motion under side load. It generates 245.3 N of push force and 206.1 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, while a needle-set variable air cushion at both ends absorbs high-speed shock for quiet deceleration.
The linear bearings provide low friction and high load capacity, making this variant the top pick for smooth vertical push-up moves. For a safe working thrust, figure roughly 147 N (about 60 percent of the 0.5 MPa push rating), which translates to pushing about 12.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. Remember that the frame's actual carrying capacity falls as the load sits further from the plate, so always confirm the allowable load from the offset curve rather than relying on thrust alone. It uses a 1/8" port and, as this SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot accept position sensors.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC TMI/TMIC datasheet. Guide frame & fixed plate: aluminum alloy; matching cylinder: MI/MIC round-body mini cylinder. Allowable load depends on the load-offset distance — consult the TMI/TMIC maximum-load curves before final selection. Thread options: PT (blank) / G.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø25mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 245 N | 206 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 344 N | 289 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 50 kgf | |
Thrust equals the underlying MI cylinder. The usable load a guide frame can carry is limited by the load-offset curve, not by thrust alone — always check both. Actual force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure.

Where the Airtac TMIC Guided Cylinder with Guide Unit TMICL25X100 Is Used
Vertical Pressing
Leverages the 245.3 N push force and low-friction linear bearings to drive lightweight pressing or seating tasks smoothly downward without rod deflection.
High-Speed Diverting
Uses the twin-rod frame and variable air cushion to absorb end-of-stroke shock during rapid package diverting on a 100 mm stroke.
Precision Insertion
Relies on the high-precision linear bearings to maintain alignment during component insertion, handling side torque without binding.
Is the Airtac TMIC Guided Cylinder with Guide Unit TMICL25X100 the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 25 mm bore unit, compare it directly with its siblings: step down to a 20 mm bore if your thrust needs are lower, or consider the brass-bearing TMICM variant if you need higher torsional stiffness over low-friction precision. Keep the TMICL when smooth, accurate travel and vertical push-up performance are the priority. The variable air cushion is essential for high-speed moves, but note that it only decelerates near stroke end—it is not a lock. If you need position holding on air loss, add an external rod lock or pilot check valve. The maximum load depends entirely on the load-offset distance, so size strictly from the load curve. Because this specific configuration omits the -S magnet, CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors cannot be fitted.
Quick checklist

- ✓ Load and offset within the load curve
- ✓ Bearing: brass (torque) vs linear (precision)
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Keep the load within the load-offset curve.
- check Mount on a flat, rigid surface using the fixed plate.
- check Do not exceed the rated speed (30-500 mm/s).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac TMIC Guided Cylinder with Guide Unit TMICL25X100 FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it provides 245.3 N push and 206.1 N pull; at 0.7 MPa it provides 343.4 N push and 288.5 N pull, with a theoretical max of 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa. However, thrust is not the load limit—the allowable load drops as the offset distance increases and must be verified from the load curve.
This specific SKU lacks the -S magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. The linear bearings ensure low-friction, high-precision travel ideal for vertical push-up moves, while the needle-set variable air cushion at both ends decelerates the piston smoothly at high speeds. The cushion only slows motion near stroke end and does not hold position.
