The AirTAC Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC32X125U is a genuine double acting + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 125mm stroke, 1/4" 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 MIC32X125U is a double-acting round-body mini cylinder built for demanding actuation. It features a 32 mm bore, a 125 mm stroke, and a U-style 90-degree rear cover for flexible mounting orientation. The stainless-steel barrel and piston rod provide reliable mild corrosion and washdown resistance. A 1/4" port supplies air to the Ø12 mm rod.
Twin adjustable air cushions distinguish this unit from fixed-bumper designs, letting you dial in needle valves to absorb high-speed end-of-stroke shock. This protects the load and cuts noise. Based on its 0.5 MPa push rating, it handles a safe working load of roughly 241 N, lifting about 20.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. Note this SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors.

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.
Uses the 402 N thrust to push heavier cartons off a high-speed sorting line, relying on the adjustable cushion to prevent harsh slams at the end of the 125 mm stroke.
Secures rigid containers during a filling process, where the stainless build resists occasional washdown and the U-cover allows a compact 90-degree mount.
Kicks machined metal blanks out of a press area at speed, using the needle-set deceleration to protect tooling and reduce repetitive impact noise.
When sizing this 32 mm bore unit, dropping down to the MIC25X50 reduces the push force to 245.3 N at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to the MIC40X50 increases it to 628.3 N. Choose this 402.2 N class model when moving heavier payloads at high cycling speeds where the adjustable needle cushions are essential to prevent impact damage. It operates between 30 and 800 mm/s.
Because this is a non-magnet SKU, position sensing is not possible without upgrading to the -S variant. Furthermore, the air 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, install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
Quick checklist
This 32 mm bore cylinder has a 1/4" port and a Ø12 mm rod with an M10x1.25 male thread. It generates 402.2 N push and 345.6 N pull at 0.5 MPa, or 563 N push and 483.8 N pull at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical maximum force is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, this specific SKU does not have a magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches; you need the -S variant for sensing. The adjustable air cushion at both ends only decelerates the piston near stroke end to reduce shock and is not a brake or lock. For load holding on air loss, use an external rod lock or pilot check valve.
