About the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC32X250SCM
Delivering 402.2 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, the AirTAC MIC32X250SCM is a double-acting round-body mini cylinder built for demanding actuation. A needle-set variable air cushion at both ends absorbs high-speed end-of-stroke shock, protecting your payload and cutting workshop noise. The stainless-steel barrel and Ø12 mm piston rod resist mild corrosion and washdown environments, while the CM round rear cover provides flexible port orientation.
Featuring a 250 mm stroke and a 1/8" air port, this unit hits a safe working load of roughly 241 N. That translates to lifting about 20.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. The -S suffix denotes a built-in piston magnet, enabling seamless mounting of CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG electronic switches for position sensing.

Where the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC32X250SCM Is Used
High-Speed Carton Diverting
Uses the 402.2 N push force to deflect heavy packaged goods on a sorter, relying on the adjustable air cushion to silently stop the 250 mm stroke at high velocity.
Light Press Assembly
Applies steady downward pressure for bearing insertion, with the needle-set cushion preventing impact damage to the tooling at the end of the 32 mm bore travel.
Vertical Parts Lift
Raises a 20.5 kg jig using the 0.5 MPa push force, where the stainless construction handles mildly humid storage environments without seizing.
Is the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC32X250SCM the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 32 mm bore, compare it directly against adjacent options. Stepping down to the MIC25 drops your 0.5 MPa push force to 245.3 N, while moving up to the MIC40 raises it to 628.3 N. Choose this 32 mm model when your application requires that 402.2 N thrust bracket alongside high cycle speeds where the adjustable cushion proves essential. It operates between 30-800 mm/s.
Note that the air cushion only decelerates the piston near the stroke end; it is not a brake. If your system loses air, the piston will drift, so fit an external rod lock or pilot check valve to hold suspended loads. For mounting, you can utilize LB foot, FA flange, SDB pivot, or TC trunnion brackets, and the -S magnet allows CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensor integration.
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 MIC32X250SCM FAQ
This 32 mm bore cylinder features a 1/8" air port and an M10x1.25 male rod thread. At 0.5 MPa it provides 402.2 N push and 345.6 N pull force. At 0.7 MPa it provides 563 N push and 483.8 N pull. The theoretical maximum force is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, the adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near the end of its stroke and acts purely as a shock absorber, not a brake. The piston will drift on air loss. To hold a suspended load safely, you must install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
