About the Airtac MGD Double Rod Mini Cylinder MGD32X100
The AirTAC MGD32X100 is a double acting, double rod JIS round-body mini cylinder with a 32 mm bore and 100 mm stroke. A 12 mm rod exits both the front and rear covers with the same M10x1.25 male thread at each end, so the through-rod resists rotation and side load, keeps stroke-end position repeatable, and lets the rear rod end carry a stop flag or drive a second load. Because both chambers see the rod-side area, the output force is equal in both directions: about 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical maximum of 70.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Construction follows the JIS mini-cylinder footprint: a SUS304 stainless barrel with hard-chrome plated rods, riveted covers, and a fixed anti-impact bumper pad that decelerates the piston at each stroke end. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, -20 to +70 C, and speeds of 30-800 mm/s on air filtered to 40 um. As a practical sizing rule, plan on roughly 60 percent of the 345.6 N push, which is about 21 kg of realistic working load, or around 17 kg if the cylinder lifts a vertical figure. This version carries no magnet, so no position sensor can be fitted; the optional S code enables CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches.

Where the Airtac MGD Double Rod Mini Cylinder MGD32X100 Is Used
Anti-rotation pusher slide
The through-rod on the MGD32X100 resists rotation and side load, keeping a 100 mm pusher stroke square to the fixture at about 345.6 N in each direction at 0.5 MPa.
Twin-load transfer
With identical M10x1.25 threads at both rod ends, one cylinder drives two grippers or trays simultaneously with equal 345.6 N force, ideal for symmetric parts transfer.
Rear flag position station
The back rod end carries a stop or switch flag; with the optional S magnet, CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches report stroke-end position on packaging and assembly lines.
Is the Airtac MGD Double Rod Mini Cylinder MGD32X100 the Right Cylinder?
At 32 mm bore the MGD32X100 delivers 345.6 N equally in both directions at 0.5 MPa, sitting between the smallest MGD bore of 20 mm (131.9 N) and the largest at 40 mm (527.8 N). Step up to bore 40 if your load needs more than about 33 kg of working force, or down to 25 mm if 21 kg is generous. If you need bores of 50 or 63 mm, or an adjustable variable cushion instead of the fixed bumper pad, choose the double-rod MGCD; for a conventional single-rod cylinder, the MG series is the equivalent. The through-rod is the right pick when rotation must be prevented, when a rear-mounted switch or stop flag is needed, or when one cylinder must drive two loads at once. Mount with the LB foot or FA flange, add I or Y rod knuckles on the working end (SDB and CB pivots are not offered on the double-rod body), and specify the S code if CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensing is planned. On strokes toward the 500 mm maximum for this bore, support the rod or guide the load to limit side loading, and remember the cylinder will not hold position on air loss, so fit an external rod lock or pilot check valve for a held load.

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/impact settings and release gradually.
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac MGD Double Rod Mini Cylinder MGD32X100 FAQ
Output is equal in both directions because both sides of the piston are rod-side area: 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical maximum of 70.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure is 1.5 MPa (215 psi), temperature range is -20 to +70 C, speed is 30-800 mm/s, and the air supply must be filtered to 40 um. The port is 1/8" and the maximum standard stroke for this 32 mm bore is 500 mm.
The MGD32X100 has a rod exiting both covers with the same M10x1.25 thread at each end, so force is identical extending and retracting, rotation and side load are resisted, and the rear end can carry a stop flag or drive a second load; the single-rod MG has a larger extend force but none of these benefits. This model has fixed anti-impact bumper pads only, not an adjustable cushion like the MGCD. It ships without a magnet, so no sensor can be mounted; order the S code to enable CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches.
