About the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC32X30SU
Dial in end-of-stroke deceleration with the AirTAC MIC32X30SU, a double-acting round-body mini cylinder built around a 32mm bore and 30mm stroke. A needle-set variable air cushion at both ends absorbs high-speed kinetic energy, protecting your payload and cutting workshop noise far better than a fixed rubber bumper. The stainless-steel barrel and piston rod shrug off mild corrosion and washdown environments, while the U-style 90-degree rear cover simplifies port and mounting orientation. Driven by a 1/4" port and a 12mm rod with an M10x1.25 male thread, this unit pushes with 402.2N and pulls with 345.6N at 0.5MPa. At that same pressure, it provides a safe working load of roughly 241N, lifting about 20.5kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. Because the -S suffix denotes a built-in piston magnet, you can mount CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed or electronic switches directly to the body for precise position sensing.

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 MIC32X30SU Is Used
Package Diverters
Drive high-speed routing gates on packaging lines where the adjustable cushion prevents jarring stops that could misalign cartons.
Light Pressing Jigs
Apply 402.2N of steady push at 0.5MPa to seat small bearings or pins, using the cushion to protect fragile components from impact.
Vertical Lift Stops
Lift roughly 20.5kg loads with a 2:1 safety margin, relying on the stainless build to withstand humid or washdown storage areas.
Is the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC32X30SU the Right Cylinder?
If 345.6N of pull at 0.5MPa is more than your mechanism requires, step down to the MIC25X30SU, which yields 206.1N of pull force. Conversely, if you need to move heavier jigs and require 527.8N of pull, the larger MIC40X30SU is the next size up. The adjustable air cushion on this 32mm bore is essential when cycling at high speeds up to 800mm/s or shifting substantial mass, letting you needle-tune the exhaust bleed to prevent harsh end-cap strikes. Remember that the cushion only decelerates the piston near the stroke end; it does not function as a brake. If your application must hold a vertical load during a sudden air loss or when a valve is centered, you must fit an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve. For mounting flexibility, pair the U back cover with LB foot, FA flange, SDB pivot, or TC trunnion hardware.
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 MIC32X30SU FAQ
This double-acting cylinder uses a 1/4" air port and generates 402.2N push and 345.6N pull at 0.5MPa. At 0.7MPa, the push increases to 563N and the pull to 483.8N. The theoretical maximum force is 82kgf at 1.0MPa.
Yes, the -S suffix means it has a built-in magnet for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. The variable air cushion at both ends only decelerates the piston near stroke end to reduce shock; it is not a lock. The piston will drift on air loss, so use an external rod lock or pilot check valve for load holding.
