About the Airtac MGD Double Rod Mini Cylinder MGD32X25
The AirTAC MGD32X25 is a JIS round-body mini cylinder, double acting and double rod: a 12 mm piston 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 as one. 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 each way 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 lets the rear rod end carry a stop flag or drive a second load.
Construction suits damp and washdown surroundings: a SUS304 stainless barrel with hard-chrome plated rods, riveted rolled covers, a two-way lubricant-storing piston seal, and a fixed anti-impact bumper pad that decelerates the stroke end. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with proof pressure of 1.5 MPa (215 psi), air filtered to 40 um, a -20 to +70 C temperature range, and speeds of 30-800 mm/s. Ports are 1/8" on this bore. Note that the cylinder does not hold its load on air loss; use an external rod lock or pilot check valve where a load must be held. Applying the usual 0.6 working-load rule to the 345.6 N force gives a safe working load of about 21 kg, or roughly 10 kg if the load is carried vertically.

Where the Airtac MGD Double Rod Mini Cylinder MGD32X25 Is Used
Anti-rotation pick slide
The through-rod of the MGD32X25 resists rotation on a 25 mm stroke, keeping a gripper or nest square at both ends with 345.6 N of equal force in each direction.
Twin-load pusher
With the same M10x1.25 thread on both rod ends, one cylinder drives two ejector pins or chutes at once, sharing about 21 kg of working load symmetrically.
Rear flag station
The back rod end carries a stop or trip flag for a downstream mechanism, while the fixed bumper pad decelerates the stroke end on this short-stroke transfer cylinder.
Is the Airtac MGD Double Rod Mini Cylinder MGD32X25 the Right Cylinder?
Choose the MGD32X25 when you need equal force in both directions on a short 25 mm stroke: at 0.5 MPa it delivers 345.6 N each way, which supports a working load of about 21 kg (roughly 10 kg vertical). Bore 32 is the second-largest MGD; step down to bore 25 (206.1 N) for lighter duty or up to bore 40 (527.8 N) for heavier loads. If you need bores 50 or 63 or an adjustable variable cushion, move to the MGCD; for a conventional single-rod cylinder, the MG is the equivalent. The through-rod is the right pick for anti-rotation slides, twin simultaneous loads, or a rear-mounted switch or stop flag. Mount with the FA flange or LB foot, add I or Y rod knuckles at the rod ends, and remember there is no SDB/CB pivot option. This unit has no magnet, so no CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switch can be fitted - order the S code if sensing is needed. Standard strokes for bore 32 run to 500 mm; on long strokes, support the rod against side 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 MGD32X25 FAQ
As a double-rod cylinder, force is equal both ways: 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, fluid air filtered to 40 um. Ports are 1/8" and the rod thread is M10x1.25 at both ends.
The MGD has a rod exiting both covers, so force is identical in extend and retract and the through-rod resists rotation and side load; the single-rod MG has a larger push than pull and no rear rod. This MGD32X25 has no magnet, so no CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensor can be mounted - order the S code version for switching. It has a fixed anti-impact bumper pad only; an adjustable cushion requires the MGCD.
