The AirTAC Airtac MI25~40 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI32X150SCM is a genuine double acting round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 150mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a stainless-steel barrel and rod for mildly corrosive environments.
Delivering 402.2 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting round-body mini cylinder handles heavier automation tasks with ease. The stainless-steel barrel and piston rod resist mild corrosion, making it far superior to painted alternatives in damp processing areas. It features a 1/8" port and a CM round rear cover for straightforward integration. Fixed TPU bumper pads absorb stroke-end impacts, and the built-in magnet (-S) supports CMSG, DMSG and EMSG sensors for position feedback.
For practical sizing, plan for a safe working load of roughly 241 N rather than pushing the absolute maximum. This translates to lifting about 20.5 kg vertically with a sensible 2:1 safety margin. Operating between 0.15 and 1.0 MPa, the riveted construction remains compact while generating substantial thrust for demanding machinery.

MI-family variants: MI / MIC (double acting ±cushion), MSI / MTI (single acting push / pull), MID / MICD (double rod ±cushion), MIJ / MICJ (adjustable stroke ±cushion). Back covers CA / U / R / CM. Mounting LB / FA / SDB / TC.
Actuates a heavy routing flap on a logistics conveyor, using the 402.2 N thrust to push dense parcels onto secondary sorting lanes without hesitation.
Drives the mechanical folder arms on a corrugated box sealing line, where the stainless build withstands fibrous dust and occasional washdowns.
Ejects formed metal blanks from a stamping die, relying on the 150 mm travel and fixed TPU bumpers to absorb the repetitive end-of-stroke impact.
When sizing this 32 mm bore, compare it directly against its neighbours: the 25 mm class provides 245.3 N of push at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to the 40 mm bore yields 628.3 N. Choose this model when your application requires that extra mid-range thrust. The 150 mm stroke is well within the 500 mm standard maximum, keeping the assembly stable. If your mechanism experiences side loads, ensure adequate guide rails to prevent rod bending over this travel distance.
Remember that air pressure alone does not secure the piston; if the valve is centred or air is lost, the rod will drift and the TPU bumpers only decelerate the end of stroke rather than acting as a brake. To suspend a load safely mid-travel, install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve. The CM round end cover offers specific rear mounting orientation, and the integrated magnet allows seamless fitting of reed or electronic switches.
Quick checklist
This 32 mm bore cylinder features a 1/8" port and a Ø12 mm rod. It generates 402.2 N push and 345.6 N pull at 0.5 MPa, increasing to 563 N push and 483.8 N pull at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical maximum force is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, the piston will drift if air is lost or the valve is centred. The fixed TPU bumper pads only decelerate the stroke end and do not function as a brake. To maintain a vertical position, you must add an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
