About the Airtac MGD Double Rod Mini Cylinder MGD32X175S
The AirTAC MGD32X175S is a double acting, double rod JIS round-body mini cylinder with a 32 mm bore and 175 mm stroke. A 12 mm rod exits both covers with an 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 the rod-side area is active on both sides of the piston, 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. At a realistic working load of roughly 0.6 of the push force, that is about 21 kg of horizontal thrust per direction.
Construction is a riveted SUS304 stainless barrel with hard-chrome plated carbon-steel rods, suited to damp and washdown environments, and a fixed anti-impact bumper pad softens each stroke end. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), temperature -20 to +70 C, and speed 30-800 mm/s on air filtered to 40 um. Every bore in the MGD family uses a 1/8" port, and the fitted magnet (S code) accepts CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches. Mounting is FA flange or LB foot, with I and Y rod knuckles available.

Where the Airtac MGD Double Rod Mini Cylinder MGD32X175S Is Used
Anti-rotation linear slide
The through-rod on the MGD32X175S resists rotation and side load, keeping a 175 mm stroke slide square without external guides in pick-and-place fixtures needing about 21 kg of thrust.
Twin-load push from one cylinder
With an M10x1.25 rod thread at both ends, the front rod drives one pusher while the rear rod drives a second, delivering 345.6 N per direction at 0.5 MPa to two packaging stations simultaneously.
Rear-mounted switch or stop flag
The fitted magnet (S code) plus the exposed back rod end let you carry a CMSG, DMSG or EMSG actuated stop or position flag, with the fixed bumper pad decelerating each stroke end.
Is the Airtac MGD Double Rod Mini Cylinder MGD32X175S the Right Cylinder?
At 32 mm bore the MGD32X175S sits in the upper-middle of the MGD range: 345.6 N per direction at 0.5 MPa, above the 25 mm bore (206.1 N) and below the 40 mm bore (527.8 N), while the 20 mm bore (131.9 N) is the smallest. Choose this model when you need equal force both ways, anti-rotation guidance or a second load driven from the rear rod end. If you need bores of 50 or 63 mm, or an adjustable variable air cushion instead of the fixed bumper pad, move to the MGCD; for a conventional single-rod cylinder, the MG is the equivalent. The 175 mm stroke is within the 500 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore, so no nonstandard build is required. Order the -S magnet code if you plan to mount CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches, and pick FA flange or LB foot mounting plus I or Y knuckles as needed. On long strokes, support the side load on external guides rather than the rod, and remember the cylinder does not hold position on air loss: 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 MGD32X175S FAQ
Because the rod-side area is active both ways, output is equal in extend and retract: 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 1.5 MPa (215 psi), temperature -20 to +70 C, speed 30-800 mm/s, and the port is 1/8" on this 32 mm bore.
The MGD32X175S has a rod exiting both covers with the same M10x1.25 thread at each end, so it resists rotation and side load, gives equal force both directions, and can drive a second load or carry a stop flag on the rear rod. The single-rod MG pushes harder on extend but pulls less on retract and offers no through-rod. This model has a fixed anti-impact bumper pad only; for an adjustable air cushion choose the MGCD. The fitted magnet accepts CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches.
