About the Airtac MGC Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MGC32X200S
The AirTAC MGC32X200S is a double acting, JIS-standard round-body mini cylinder with a 32 mm bore and 200 mm stroke, fitted with a variable air cushion at both stroke ends. Unlike the bumper-type MG, the cushion needles let you dial in end-of-stroke deceleration, so this cylinder can run at higher piston speeds and move heavier loads without hammering the covers. At the standard 0.5 MPa (73 psi) supply it delivers 402.2 N push and 345.6 N pull, rising to 563 N push at 0.7 MPa (102 psi), with a theoretical maximum of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa (145 psi).
Construction follows the JIS mini-cylinder footprint: a SUS304 stainless barrel with covers and stainless block riveted and rolled onto it, plus a hard-chrome plated 12 mm rod (male thread M10x1.25) and a two-way piston seal that also stores lubricant. Air supply should be filtered to 40 um; operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), temperature range -20 to +70 C, and speed range 30-800 mm/s. The fitted magnet (S code) accepts CMSG, DMSG or EMSG reed sensors, and mounting options are FA flange, LB foot, plus I and Y rod knuckles. Note that the cushion only decelerates the stroke end; it is not a lock, so use an external rod lock or pilot check valve if the load must be held on air loss.

Where the Airtac MGC Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MGC32X200S Is Used
High-speed conveyor stop and divert
The variable air cushion absorbs the momentum of fast-moving product at stroke end, letting this 32 mm cylinder cycle at up to 800 mm/s with 402.2 N push force without cover impact.
Light press and forming stations
With 563 N push at 0.7 MPa (102 psi) and tunable end-of-stroke deceleration, the MGC32X200S suits small pressing, staking and marking fixtures on repetitive assembly equipment.
Packaging pusher and ejector arms
About 41 kgf of push at 0.5 MPa moves cartons and trays off lines smoothly; the cushion prevents bounce on the eject stroke while the SUS304 barrel resists washdown environments.
Is the Airtac MGC Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MGC32X200S the Right Cylinder?
At 32 mm bore, the MGC32X200S sits in the middle of the cushioned MGC range: it gives 402.2 N push at 0.5 MPa (73 psi), roughly 41 kgf, so a safe working load rule of 0.6x the push force points to about 24 kg for horizontal duty, or roughly 20 kg if lifting vertically. If you need less force, the MGC25 offers 245.3 N push at 0.5 MPa; if you need more, step up to the MGC40 at 628.3 N or the MGC50/63 for 981.3 N and 1557.9 N. For bores 20-40, the plain MG is the no-cushion alternative if your application is slow and light and does not need adjustable deceleration. The 200 mm stroke is within the 500 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore, and non-standard strokes up to 800 mm are made to order. Choose the -S magnet version (as here) if you need CMSG/DMSG/EMSG position sensing, and pick FA flange or LB foot mounting with I or Y rod knuckles to suit your machine. With a 12 mm rod on a 200 mm stroke, keep side loads low or add external guidance for long unsupported extensions.

Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Do not dismantle the riveted front/back covers.
- check On first run, back off the cushion and release gradually.
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac MGC Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MGC32X200S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa (73 psi) it pushes with 402.2 N and pulls with 345.6 N; at 0.7 MPa (102 psi) push is 563 N and pull 483.8 N. The theoretical maximum is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa (145 psi). Using the common 0.6x rule on the 0.5 MPa push force, plan for a safe working load of about 24 kg horizontally, or roughly 20 kg for vertical lifting.
The cushion is an adjustable air damper at both stroke ends: turn the needle valve to decelerate the piston smoothly for higher speeds or heavier moving loads. It only decelerates the end of travel and is not a lock or brake, so the MGC32X200S will not hold position on air loss. For a held load, add an external rod lock or pilot check valve. The fitted magnet also allows CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches for position feedback.
