The AirTAC Airtac MGD Double Rod Mini Cylinder MGD32X200 is a genuine double acting, double rod JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 200mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a SUS304 stainless-steel barrel with a hard-chrome-plated rod for reliable, mildly corrosion-resistant service.
The MGD32X200 is a double acting, double rod JIS mini cylinder with a 32 mm bore and 200 mm stroke. A 12 mm rod exits both the front and back covers with the same M10x1.25 male thread at each end, so the two rod ends move together and 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. Because both sides of the piston see the rod-side area, there is no separate push and pull figure, and the through-rod naturally resists piston rotation and side load.
Construction follows the JIS round-body mini format: a SUS304 stainless barrel with hard-chrome plated carbon-steel rods, riveted covers and a fixed anti-impact bumper pad at each stroke end that softens deceleration without any adjustment. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, air filtered to 40 um, -20 to +70 C, and speeds of 30-800 mm/s. For a realistic vertical lift, apply the 0.6 rule of thumb to the 345.6 N force: roughly 21 kg. This unit ships without the magnet, so no CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switch can be mounted until the optional S code is ordered.

Double-rod: a rod exits both covers, so output force is equal in both directions (rod-side area used).

The through-rod keeps the carriage from twisting on a 200 mm transfer stroke, delivering a repeatable 345.6 N push and pull at 0.5 MPa without external anti-rotation guides.
Front and rear M10x1.25 rod ends each carry the same 345.6 N force, so two small chutes or clamps can be driven symmetrically from one 32 mm cylinder.
Use the back rod end to carry a stop block or, with the S magnet option, a switch flag for end-of-stroke signalling on packaging and assembly tooling.
At 345.6 N per direction, the 32 mm bore is the second-largest MGD, suited to loads up to roughly 35 kg horizontally at 0.5 MPa or about 21 kg vertically using the 0.6 rule. Step down to MGD25 if your load is under about 20 kg, or up to MGD40 for the 527.8 N class. If you need a 50 or 63 mm bore or an adjustable air cushion, the double-rod MGCD series is the right family; for a conventional single-rod cylinder, choose the MG. The 200 mm stroke sits well inside the 500 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore, so no nonstandard surcharge applies. Mount with the LB foot or FA flange, and add I or Y rod knuckles at either or both rod ends; pivot mounts SDB and CB are not offered on double-rod cylinders. Order the S code if you want position sensing with CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches. On long strokes, keep side load on the through-rod low and guide the load externally to protect the bearings.
Quick checklist
Output is equal in both directions because the rod-side area works both ways: 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa, 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa, and a theoretical maximum of 70.5 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, air filtered to 40 um, temperature -20 to +70 C, and speed 30-800 mm/s. Ports are 1/8" and the rod thread is M10x1.25 at both ends.
A rod exits both covers, so force is identical extending and retracting, the through-rod resists rotation and side load, and the rear rod end can carry a stop flag or drive a second load; the single-rod MG has a larger push than pull and no rear rod. This unit has fixed anti-impact bumper pads only, not an adjustable cushion. To mount CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches you must order the S magnet code, since without the magnet no sensor can be fitted.
