The AirTAC Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC32X125SU is a genuine double acting + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 125mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a stainless-steel barrel and rod for mildly corrosive environments.
Dial in end-of-stroke deceleration with the AirTAC MIC32X125SU, a double-acting round-body mini cylinder built for heavier small-frame tasks. It generates 402.2 N of push force and 345.6 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, giving you a safe working load of roughly 241 N. This translates to lifting about 20.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin.
Unlike basic bumper models, this stainless-steel unit features an adjustable air cushion at both ends. You set the needle valve to soak up kinetic energy at high speeds, protecting your payload from impact shock. The riveted stainless barrel and rod shrug off mild corrosion, while the 1/8" port and U-style 90-degree rear cover streamline your plumbing and mounting layout.

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.
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |

| 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.
Handles heavier cartons on high-speed sorting lines where the adjustable cushions prevent harsh slams during rapid direction changes.
Pushes finished metal or plastic parts out of a small press, using the 402.2 N thrust to knock them clear without shock damage.
Raises light access doors or material trays, safely lifting around 20.5 kg while the needle valves soften the top stop.
If you need less force, the MIC25 bore drops the 0.5 MPa push down to 245.3 N, whereas stepping up to the MIC40 raises it to 628.3 N. Choose this 32 mm bore when moving heavier masses at high speeds where the adjustable end cushions are essential to prevent harsh impacts. The 125 mm stroke falls well within the 500 mm maximum standard stroke.
Remember that the air cushion only decelerates the piston near the end of travel; it does not lock the rod or hold a load if air pressure drops. For vertical or suspended loads that must resist drifting, add an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve. Because this SKU includes the -S magnet, you can directly mount CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed and electronic switches for position sensing.
Quick checklist
This double-acting cylinder uses a 1/8" air port and a 12 mm piston rod. It delivers 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 force of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Yes, the built-in -S magnet allows you to fit CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches along the groove. The adjustable air cushion at both ends uses a needle valve to trap and exhaust air to smoothly decelerate the load near stroke end, but it is not a braking lock.
