The AirTAC Airtac MG Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MG20X350S is a genuine double acting JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø20mm bore and 350mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a SUS304 stainless-steel barrel with a hard-chrome-plated rod for reliable, mildly corrosion-resistant service.
With a 20 mm bore and a long 350 mm stroke, this MG series cylinder runs double acting on filtered air, pushing with about 157 N and pulling with 131.9 N at 0.5 MPa (219.8 N / 184.7 N at 0.7 MPa, up to 32 kgf theoretical at 1.0 MPa). The round SUS304 stainless barrel is riveted onto the covers rather than tied with rods, and the hard-chrome plated 8 mm rod shrugs off washdown and damp shop air better than painted minis. Because the footprint follows the JIS mini-cylinder standard, standard brackets and I or Y rod knuckles bolt straight on.
In practice, plan on roughly 94 N of usable push at 0.5 MPa, which lifts about 9 kg vertically once you halve the 16 kgf equivalent for a 2:1 margin. The fitted magnet means CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches can be clipped on for end-of-stroke signalling without reordering a special build. A fixed anti-impact pad softens each direction change, and the 350 mm stroke sits well inside the 500 mm standard range for this bore, so no made-to-order surcharge applies.

The fitted magnet and 157 N push at 0.5 MPa suit a 350 mm-throw ejector on a packaging line that kicks undersized bottles off a conveyor into a reject bin.
A stainless barrel and 131.9 N pull force make this a clean choice for sliding sample trays in and out of an analytical instrument enclosure in a humid lab.
With about 9 kg of safe vertical lift at a 2:1 margin, the 350 mm stroke can lower a small camera or sensor head into a test fixture on an assembly bench.
At 0.5 MPa this bore delivers 157 N push and 131.9 N pull; the next step down does not exist in the MG range (20 mm is the smallest), while the 25 mm bore raises push to 245.3 N if your load needs more margin. If your application stalls above roughly 94 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, size up. Note that the rod drifts when air is removed or the valve centres, so add an external rod lock or a pilot check valve for any held load. The long 350 mm stroke makes the 8 mm rod more sensitive to side loads, so guide the payload externally and keep the axis aligned. Mount with LB foot, FA flange, CB clevis or SDB pivot, and remember the magnet is already fitted for sensor use.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it pushes with 157 N and pulls with 131.9 N; at 0.7 MPa those rise to 219.8 N and 184.7 N. The theoretical maximum is 32 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, and speed runs 30-800 mm/s.
Yes. The S in MG20X350S means the piston magnet is built in, so AirTAC CMSG, DMSG or EMSG reed or electronic switches mount directly on the barrel to signal extend and retract positions. Ports are 1/8" on all four sides of the covers, threaded PT as standard.
