The AirTAC Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC32X300U is a genuine double acting + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 300mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a stainless-steel barrel and rod for mildly corrosive environments.
Handling mid-weight automation tasks, the AirTAC MIC32X300U is a double-acting round-body mini cylinder built with a stainless-steel barrel and rod for mild washdown resistance. It pushes with 402.2 N and pulls with 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa, translating to a safe working load of roughly 241 N or a 20.5 kg vertical lift with a 2:1 margin. The 1/8" port feeds the 12 mm piston rod, and the U rear cover provides a 90-degree mounting orientation.
Unlike standard bumper units, this model features an adjustable air cushion at both ends. Turning the cushion needle lets you tune the deceleration to absorb end-of-stroke shock at high speeds, protecting the load and cutting noise. Note that this non-magnet SKU cannot take a sensor; adding the -S variant enables CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches for position feedback.

| 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 402.2 N push force to deflect heavier cartons on a sorting line, relying on the adjustable cushion to soften stops at high cycle rates.
Raises a 20 kg access panel with a 2:1 safety margin, where the 90-degree U cover simplifies rear hinge mounting.
Pushes completed metal components out of a machining area, with the stainless build resisting mild coolant spray.
When sizing this 32 mm bore, dropping down to the MIC25 yields 245.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to the MIC40 provides 628.3 N. The adjustable cushion is essential here if you are moving heavier payloads across the 300 mm stroke at high speed, as it prevents harsh mechanical impacts. Keep in mind the cushion only decelerates 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 pilot check valve to prevent drift.
Mounting options include LB foot, FA flange, SDB pivot, and TC trunnion brackets. Because this specific configuration lacks the internal magnet, it cannot support magnetic sensing; specify the -S version if your control system requires CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches.
Quick checklist
This 32 mm bore cylinder uses a 1/8" port and a 12 mm rod with an M10x1.25 male 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 of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, this specific SKU lacks an internal magnet and cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. You must select the -S magnet variant for position sensing. The adjustable air cushion at both ends functions only to decelerate the load near stroke end and will not hold the piston in place if air pressure is lost.
