About the Airtac MGD Double Rod Mini Cylinder MGD32X50S
The AirTAC MGD32X50S is a double acting, double rod JIS mini cylinder with a 32 mm bore and 50 mm stroke. A 12 mm rod exits both 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 each way at 0.5 MPa, rising to 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa. Because both sides of the piston see the rod-side area, there is no separate push and pull figure to juggle when sizing the load.
The through-rod resists rotation and side load, keeps stroke-end position repeatable, and leaves the rear rod end free to carry a switch or stop flag or drive a second load. The magnet fitted under the S code accepts CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches, and a fixed anti-impact bumper pad softens each stroke end. The SUS304 stainless barrel with hard-chrome rod suits damp and washdown areas, and the 1/8" port keeps plumbing simple. At a realistic working load of roughly 0.6 of the 0.5 MPa force, plan on about 21 kgf, or around 17.5 kg for a vertical figure.

Where the Airtac MGD Double Rod Mini Cylinder MGD32X50S Is Used
Anti-rotation slide
The through-rod keeps a 50 mm slide from twisting under a 20 to 25 kgf working load, with equal force for the return stroke.
Twin-load push
Front and rear M10x1.25 rod ends each carry a fixture, so one 32 mm cylinder presses or transfers two parts per cycle at 345.6 N per side.
Rear-mounted stop flag
The back rod end drives a switch or stop flag while the front end does the work, and the fitted magnet feeds CMSG/DMSG/EMSG position feedback.
Is the Airtac MGD Double Rod Mini Cylinder MGD32X50S the Right Cylinder?
At 345.6 N per direction at 0.5 MPa, the 32 mm bore sits in the middle of the MGD range: step down to a 25 mm bore for lighter symmetric transfer duty, or up to 40 mm (527.8 N) when the load demands more. If you need a 50 mm or 63 mm bore, or an adjustable variable cushion instead of the fixed bumper pad, move to the MGCD; for a conventional single-rod cylinder, the MG is the equivalent. Choose this model when anti-rotation guidance, equal force both ways, or a rear rod end for a flag or second load matters. Mounting is FA flange or LB foot, with I and Y rod knuckles available; there is no SDB/CB pivot on the double-rod design. The fitted magnet means CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches can be added without reordering. Keep long strokes (up to 500 mm standard on this bore) away from heavy side loads, and remember the cylinder will not hold its position on air loss, so use 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 MGD32X50S FAQ
It is a double acting double rod JIS mini cylinder, 32 mm bore, 50 mm stroke, 12 mm rod with M10x1.25 threads at both ends and a 1/8" port. 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, on air filtered to 40 um. The magnet accepts CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches.
A rod exits both covers, so both strokes use the rod-side area and the force is identical extending and retracting; the single-rod MG has a larger push than pull. The through-rod also resists rotation and side load and lets the rear end carry a flag or a second load. The fixed bumper pad only decelerates the stroke ends; it is not an adjustable cushion and does not lock the piston. If the load must stay in place on air loss, add an external rod lock or pilot check valve.
