The AirTAC Airtac MI25~40 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MI32X50R is a genuine double acting round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 50mm 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 duty cycles where smaller bores stall. The stainless-steel barrel and Ø12 mm piston rod shrug off mild corrosion, making it highly suitable for damp washdown environments. An R back cover configures the port for axial-in routing to tidy up tight machinery plumbing, while fixed TPU bumper pads absorb the impact at stroke ends.
This 32 mm bore unit runs on a 1/8 inch air port and operates at speeds from 30-800 mm/s. Because it lacks the -S suffix, this specific SKU cannot host CMSG, DMSG or EMSG magnetic sensors. For sizing practicality, plan for roughly 241 N of actual work at 0.5 MPa, which means it lifts about 20.5 kg vertically with a safe 2:1 margin.

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.

| 0.5 MPa | 402 N | 346 N |
| 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, using its 402.2 N push force to swing heavy cartons onto secondary sorting lanes.
Drives a short 50 mm stroke pin marker to emboss serial numbers into aluminium extrusions on an automated fabrication line.
Secures heavy steel plate during CNC machining, relying on the 345.6 N pull force at 0.5 MPa to retract the holding arm clear of the spindle.
When sizing this 32 mm bore actuator, compare it against its neighbours: a 25 mm bore yields 245.3 N of push at 0.5 MPa, whereas stepping up to a 40 mm bore provides 628.3 N. The 50 mm stroke here is well within the 500 mm maximum, keeping the rod rigid with minimal bending risk. The 1/8 inch port and M10x1.25 male rod thread are fixed by the bore size. Remember that fixed TPU bumpers only decelerate the end of travel; they do not act as a brake. If your application must hold a vertical load when air pressure drops or the valve centres, you must add an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve, as the piston will drift.
Quick checklist
This 32 mm bore cylinder features a 1/8 inch air port and generates 402.2 N push / 345.6 N pull at 0.5 MPa, and 563 N push / 483.8 N pull at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical maximum force is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, this specific SKU lacks the internal magnet. You must purchase the -S variant to use CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches. Additionally, note that Ø32 is a non-ISO-6432 round-body size, and the fixed TPU bumpers only decelerate the stroke end rather than providing adjustable cushioning.
