About the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC32X20CM
Delivering 402.2 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, the AirTAC MIC32X20CM is a robust round-body mini cylinder built for double-acting operation. The stainless-steel barrel and piston rod provide reliable mild corrosion and washdown resistance. A needle-set variable air cushion at both ends absorbs high-speed end-of-stroke shock, protecting your payload and reducing noise. This specific SKU lacks a magnet and cannot accept a position switch; adding the -S variant enables CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors.
With a 32 mm bore and 20 mm stroke, this model carries a 1/4" port and an M10x1.25 male rod thread. It yields a safe working load of roughly 241 N, lifting about 20.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. The CM round end cover dictates the rear mounting and port orientation. Operating between 0.15 and 1.0 MPa at speeds of 30-800 mm/s, it handles heavy tasks without the bulk of a profile body.

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.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø32mm)
| 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.

Where the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC32X20CM Is Used
High-Speed Diverting
Cushions the 402 N impact when rapidly pushing heavy cartons off a sorting line at 800 mm/s, preventing load damage.
Short-Stroke Sealing
Applies steady 20.5 kg clamping pressure to seal filled pouches, using the 20 mm stroke and CM cover for tight spaces.
Washdown Ejection
Stainless construction survives mild washdowns while kicking metal parts out of a machining cell in a compact footprint.
Is the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC32X20CM the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 402.2 N @0.5 MPa unit, stepping down to the MIC25 drops the push force to 245.3 N, while moving up to the MIC40 raises it to 628.3 N. The adjustable cushion proves essential when driving heavier masses at high velocities, smoothing the 20 mm travel. Because this is a non-magnetized SKU, it cannot host a sensor; choose the -S version if your sequence requires CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. You can mount it via LB foot, FA flange, SDB pivot, or TC trunnion hardware.
Remember that the air cushion only decelerates the piston near stroke end; it does not function as a brake. If air pressure drops or the valve centers, the piston will drift and drop the load. To secure a suspended weight safely, install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve alongside the cylinder.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT / G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Back cover (CA/U/R/CM) & mount (LB/FA/SDB/TC)
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Do not dismantle the riveted front/back covers.
- check Use correct back cover (CA/U/R/CM) & mount (LB/FA/SDB/TC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC32X20CM FAQ
This double-acting cylinder uses a 1/4" 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 and cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. You must select the -S magnet variant to enable sensing. The adjustable air cushion only controls deceleration and does not lock the rod.
