The AirTAC Airtac MI25~40 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI32X450CM is a genuine double acting round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 450mm 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 substantial workloads within a compact footprint. The stainless-steel barrel and piston rod resist mild corrosion, making it highly suitable for damp environments or washdown zones where painted alternatives fail. A 1/8" port supplies air to drive the 12 mm rod, while fixed TPU bumper pads absorb end-of-stroke impacts.
For practical sizing, plan for a safe working load of roughly 241 N, which accounts for friction and real-world dynamics. This translates to lifting about 20.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. The CM round end cover provides a clean rear finish, and because this 450 mm stroke falls within the 500 mm maximum standard, it ships as a standard configuration rather than a special order.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC MI/MIC (ISO 6432) datasheet. Barrel & rod: stainless steel (round-body, riveted construction). Thread options: PT (blank) / G. Note: the Ø32 bore is a larger, non-ISO-6432 size.

| 0.7 MPa | 563 N | 484 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 82 kgf | |
Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a safety margin.

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 belt, utilizing the 402.2 N push force to redirect parcels reliably.
Provides consistent downward pressure for a light-duty assembly press, relying on the 450 mm stroke to accommodate varying part heights.
Pushes machined parts out of a damp machining cell, leveraging the stainless steel construction to withstand humid operating conditions.
When sizing this 32 mm bore unit, the smaller 25 mm variant offers 245.3 N of push at 0.5 MPa, whereas stepping up to the 40 mm bore yields 628.3 N. Choose this model when your application requires that middle-ground thrust. Because this is a non-magnet SKU, it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position switches; you must select an -S variant if electronic sensing is required.
At a 450 mm stroke, side loading becomes a critical factor. Ensure your mounting arrangement—whether LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion—maintains strict alignment to prevent rod bending and premature seal wear. Remember that the fixed TPU bumpers only decelerate the piston near the stroke end; they do not function as an adjustable air cushion. Furthermore, if the air supply drops, the piston will drift, so fit an external rod lock or pilot check valve if you need to hold a suspended load.
Quick checklist
This 32 mm bore cylinder features a 1/8" port and a 12 mm rod. At 0.5 MPa it provides 402.2 N push and 345.6 N pull. At 0.7 MPa, the push is 563 N and pull is 483.8 N. The theoretical maximum force is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, this specific SKU lacks the internal magnet required for sensing, so CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches cannot be used. You would need the -S variant for position detection. It features fixed TPU bumper pads for end-of-stroke deceleration, not an adjustable air cushion.
