The AirTAC Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC32X150SCM is a genuine double acting + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 150mm 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 MIC32X150SCM is a double-acting round-body mini cylinder built for demanding actuation. It features a stainless-steel barrel and piston rod that resist mild corrosion and washdown environments. A 1/4" port supplies the 32 mm bore, driving a 12 mm rod with an M10x1.25 male thread over a 150 mm stroke. The CM round rear cover provides a compact, clean mounting footprint for tight machinery.
The defining feature of this build is the adjustable air cushion at both ends. By turning a needle valve, you tune the end-of-stroke deceleration to absorb high-speed shock, protecting the load and cutting noise far better than a fixed bumper. For sizing, this yields a safe working load of roughly 241 N, meaning it lifts about 20.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. The -S suffix equips the piston with a magnet for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position switches.

| 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 masses on sorting lines where the needle-tuned cushions silently absorb the 150 mm stroke impact at high speed.
Applies up to 402.2 N of push force for seating small bearings or pins, using the adjustable end cushion to prevent workpiece damage.
Raises access flaps or light barriers; the stainless build resists warehouse humidity while the cushion softens the top stop.
When sizing this 32 mm bore, dropping down to the MIC25X50 yields 245.3 N push at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to the MIC40X50 provides 628.3 N. Choose this 402.2 N model when moving moderate masses at high cycling speeds where the adjustable needle cushions actively prevent harsh end-of-stroke impacts. The 1/4" port and 30-800 mm/s speed range handle robust flow requirements.
Remember that the air cushion only decelerates the piston near the stroke end; it does not function as a brake. If air pressure drops, the piston will drift, so fit an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for suspended loads. Mounting options include LB foot, FA flange, SDB pivot, and TC trunnion brackets, while the -S magnet enables solid-state or reed sensor tracking.
Quick checklist
This 32 mm bore cylinder uses a 1/4" port and a 12 mm rod with an M10x1.25 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 force of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The -S suffix provides a built-in piston magnet for CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG sensors. The adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near stroke end and does not lock the load; you must add an external rod lock or pilot check valve to prevent drifting on air loss.
