The AirTAC Airtac MGD Double Rod Mini Cylinder MGD32X200S 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 AirTAC MGD32X200S is a JIS-standard round-body mini cylinder that is double acting with a double rod: a 12 mm hard-chrome rod exits both the front and back covers, each with the same M10x1.25 male thread. Because the rod-side piston area is active on both sides, the output force is equal in each direction, 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. The through-rod resists rotation and side load, keeps stroke-end position repeatable, and leaves the rear rod end free to carry a stop flag or drive a second load. The fitted magnet (S code) accepts CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches for end-of-stroke sensing.
Construction suits damp and washdown surroundings: a SUS304 stainless barrel with riveted covers and hard-chrome carbon-steel rods, plus a fixed anti-impact bumper pad that decelerates the piston at each stroke end. It runs on air filtered to 40 um at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof tested to 1.5 MPa (215 psi), from -20 to +70 C at 30-800 mm/s. Ports are 1/8" and the thread is PT. As a sizing rule of thumb, take about 0.6 of the 345.6 N force, roughly 21 kg, as a safe vertical working load; the cylinder does not hold position on air loss, so use an external rod lock or pilot check valve for a held load.

The through-rod on the MGD32X200S resists rotation and side load, so a 345.6 N push-pull slide can index parts or fixtures at 0.5 MPa without extra guides on short, well-supported strokes.
With the same M10x1.25 thread on both rod ends, the rear rod can drive a second clamp, ejector or diverter at the same time as the front, splitting the 483.8 N available at 0.7 MPa between two stations.
The fitted magnet plus the free back rod end let you mount a CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switch, or a mechanical stop or flag, on the rear side while the front rod does the 200 mm work stroke.
At 32 mm bore the MGD32X200S delivers 345.6 N each way at 0.5 MPa, the second-largest force in the MGD range: step down to bore 25 (206.1 N) or bore 20 (131.9 N) for lighter duties, or up to bore 40 (527.8 N) for heavier ones. If you need a larger bore (50 or 63 mm) or an adjustable variable cushion instead of the fixed bumper pad, choose the double-rod MGCD; if a single rod is enough, the single-rod MG covers that. This model is a good fit where anti-rotation guidance, symmetric transfer or a rear-mounted switch or stop flag matters, and the 200 mm stroke sits well inside the 500 mm maximum standard stroke for this bore. Mount with the FA flange or LB foot and add I or Y rod knuckles at the working end (no SDB/CB pivot is offered on the double-rod body); the S magnet already fitted means CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches can be added without reordering. On long strokes, support the side load and avoid radial forces on the rod ends.
Quick checklist
Because the rod-side area works in both directions, output is equal each way: 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), fluid is air filtered to 40 um, temperature range -20 to +70 C, and speed 30-800 mm/s. Ports are 1/8" with PT thread, and the maximum standard stroke for this 32 mm bore is 500 mm.
The MGD32X200S 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 better resisted, 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. The fixed bumper pad only softens the stroke ends, it is not an adjustable cushion (that is the MGCD), and the cylinder will drift on air loss, so use an external rod lock or pilot check valve to hold a load. The S magnet is already fitted, so CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches mount directly.
