The AirTAC Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC32X100SU is a genuine double acting + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 100mm 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, the AirTAC MIC32X100SU is a double-acting round-body mini cylinder built for demanding motion tasks. It features a 32 mm bore, a 100 mm stroke, and a 1/8 inch air port. The stainless-steel barrel and piston rod supply reliable mild corrosion resistance for washdown or humid settings. A U-style 90-degree rear cover provides flexible mounting orientation.
Unlike standard bumper models, this unit incorporates an adjustable air cushion at both ends. You can tune the needle valve to decelerate heavy loads smoothly at high speeds, reducing end-of-stroke shock and noise. With a safe working load of roughly 241 N, it can vertically lift about 20.5 kg with a 2:1 safety margin. The integrated -S magnet allows direct mounting of CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors for position detection.

| 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.
Handles moderate carton weights on high-speed sorting lines where the adjustable air cushion prevents harsh slamming during rapid direction changes.
Applies steady 402.2 N clamping force for small component seating, using the 1/8 inch port for rapid actuation and responsive cycle times.
Raises goods up to 20.5 kg with a 2:1 safety margin, relying on the stainless build to withstand humid storage environments.
When sizing this 32 mm bore, stepping down to a MIC25X100S drops the 0.5 MPa push force to 245.3 N, while stepping up to a MIC40X100S increases it to 628.3 N. Choose this 32 mm model when moving moderate masses at high velocities, as the adjustable air cushion is essential for absorbing kinetic energy without slamming. Speeds range from 30 to 800 mm/s.
Remember that the cushion only decelerates the piston near the stroke end; it does not function as a brake. If your application must hold a load vertically during air loss, add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve. The U back cover and -S magnet option give you immediate sensor compatibility and 90-degree mounting flexibility.
Quick checklist
This 32 mm bore cylinder features a 1/8 inch air port and an M10x1.25 male rod thread. It generates 402.2 N push and 345.6 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 563 N push and 483.8 N pull at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical maximum of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The -S suffix means it has a built-in magnet for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. The adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near stroke end to reduce shock; it is not a lock. You need an external rod lock or pilot check valve to hold a load on air loss.
