About the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC32X270SU
Delivering 402.2 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting round-body mini cylinder handles substantial workloads. The stainless-steel barrel and piston rod resist mild corrosion and washdown environments. A needle-set variable air cushion at both ends absorbs high-speed stroke shock, lowering noise and protecting the payload better than a fixed bumper. The 1/4" port feeds the 12 mm rod efficiently across its 270 mm travel.
For sizing context, this unit provides a safe working load of roughly 241 N, lifting about 20.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. The built-in piston magnet (-S) supports CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG position switches. It uses a U 90-degree rear cover for specific mounting orientation. Remember that the air cushion only decelerates the load near stroke end; it does not function as a lock or brake.

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 MIC32X270SU Is Used
Package Diverting
Pushes heavy cartons at high cycle rates. The adjustable air cushion prevents harsh impacts that could damage packaging, while the 402.2 N force handles substantial side loads.
Light Pressing
Applies steady downward pressure for bearing seating or light stamping tasks. The 270 mm stroke accommodates varying part heights, and the stainless build resists shop fluids.
Pallet Stops
Acts as a high-speed stop mechanism on conveyor lines. The needle-set deceleration halts the pallet smoothly, and the U 90-degree cover simplifies rear pivot mounting.
Is the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC32X270SU the Right Cylinder?
If 402.2 N is excessive, dropping to the Ø25 bore reduces push force to 245.3 N at 0.5 MPa. Stepping up to the Ø40 bore yields 628.3 N. The adjustable cushion is essential when cycling at high speeds or moving heavy masses, preventing destructive end-of-stroke impact. Because this is a non-ISO-6432 round-body mini cylinder, confirm your mounting footprint.
For vertical or suspended loads, note that the piston will drift if air pressure drops or the valve is centered. The cushion needle cannot hold a load in place. You must integrate an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve to secure the position. The -S magnet allows sensor integration, and the U cover dictates your rear port and mounting angle.
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 MIC32X270SU FAQ
This double-acting cylinder has a 1/4" port and a 12 mm rod. 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. The variable air cushion at both ends only decelerates the piston near the stroke end to reduce shock; it is not a brake or lock. The piston will drift on air loss. For position holding, use an external rod lock or pilot check valve. The -S magnet enables CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors.
