About the Airtac MGC Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MGC32X350S
The AirTAC MGC32X350S is a double acting JIS-standard round-body mini cylinder with a 32 mm bore and a 350 mm stroke, fitted with a variable air cushion at both stroke ends. Turn the cushion needle in to throttle the exhaust and the piston decelerates smoothly into the cover, so this cylinder tolerates higher piston speeds and heavier moving loads than the bumper-type MG without hammering the end caps. At 0.5 MPa it pushes 402.2 N and pulls 345.6 N; at 0.7 MPa that rises to 563 N push and 483.8 N pull, with a theoretical maximum of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Construction follows the JIS mini-cylinder footprint: a SUS304 stainless barrel with covers and stainless block riveted and rolled onto it, and a 12 mm hard-chrome plated carbon-steel rod with an M10x1.25 male thread. The two-way piston seal also stores lubricant, cutting maintenance intervals. 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 (the S in the code) accepts CMSG, DMSG or EMSG reed switches, and a practical rule of thumb is that a safe vertical working load is about 0.6 of the push force, roughly 24 kg here.

Where the Airtac MGC Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MGC32X350S Is Used
Conveyor stop and divert
The 402.2 N push force at 0.5 MPa stops cartons or totes on a conveyor line, while the variable air cushion absorbs the moving load at end of stroke instead of hammering the covers.
Packaging pusher and ejector
Pushes product into cartons or off a belt at up to 800 mm/s; the adjustable cushion lets you tune deceleration so lighter packs are not crushed against the end of travel.
Small assembly press and clamp
563 N of push at 0.7 MPa gives enough force for light pressing, staking and clamping jigs, and the fitted magnet plus CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches confirms clamp completion to the PLC.
Is the Airtac MGC Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MGC32X350S the Right Cylinder?
At 32 mm bore this is the mid-size of the MGC range: 402.2 N push at 0.5 MPa puts it above the 20 mm (157 N) and 25 mm (245.3 N) sizes and below the 40 mm (628.3 N), 50 mm (981.3 N) and 63 mm (1557.9 N) versions. If you do not need end-of-stroke deceleration, the bumper-type MG in the same bore is the no-cushion alternative for 20-40 mm. The 350 mm stroke sits well inside the 500 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore, so it ships as a standard item; strokes beyond 500 mm up to 800 mm are made to order. Order the FA flange or LB foot mounting, add I or Y rod knuckles if the load pivots, and keep the -S magnet if you want CMSG/DMSG/EMSG position sensing. With a 350 mm stroke and a 12 mm rod, check side loads carefully: guide the load externally rather than cantilevering it off the rod, and use the adjustable cushion to soften arrival at both ends when running near the 800 mm/s top speed.

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 MGC32X350S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it delivers 402.2 N push and 345.6 N pull; at 0.7 MPa, 563 N push and 483.8 N pull. The theoretical maximum is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. For held or vertical loads, size to about 0.6 of the push force, roughly 24 kg, and add an external rod lock or pilot check valve because the air cushion only decelerates end of stroke and does not lock the piston.
The S means a piston magnet is fitted, so CMSG, DMSG or EMSG reed switches can be clipped onto the SUS304 stainless barrel for position feedback. The variable air cushion at both ends is adjusted with a needle screw on each cover: open it for free travel, close it to slow the piston smoothly into the cover when running fast or carrying a heavy moving load.
