The AirTAC Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC32X35SCM is a genuine double acting + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 35mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and a stainless-steel barrel and rod for mildly corrosive environments.
Soaking up high-velocity impacts at both stroke ends, the AirTAC MIC32X35SCM relies on a needle-set variable air cushion rather than a fixed bumper to decelerate heavy loads smoothly. This double-acting, round-body stainless-steel mini cylinder brings 402.2 N of push force and 345.6 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, stepping up to 563 N push at 0.7 MPa. The riveted stainless barrel and Ø12 mm rod resist mild corrosion and washdown environments.
Driven by a 1/4" port and an M10x1.25 male rod thread, this unit includes a built-in piston magnet (-S) for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position sensing. In practical terms, 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 rear cover helps streamline port and mounting orientation in tight machinery.

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.

| 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.
Handles 20 kg cartons at 800 mm/s on sorting lines, using the adjustable cushion to stop the stroke softly without jarring the conveyor frame.
Drives sealing heads on liquid packaging machines where the stainless build shrugs off washdown and the 402 N push force secures the seal.
Inserts small bearings or pins into housings, relying on the 241 N safe working load and CM rear cover for stable, shock-free positioning.
When sizing this 32 mm bore, stepping down to the Ø25 MIC drops the 0.5 MPa push force to 245.3 N, while moving up to the Ø40 MIC raises it to 628.3 N. Choose this 35 mm stroke model for short, fast cycles where the adjustable end cushions are essential to prevent endcap slamming. The cushion needle only decelerates the piston near stroke end; it will not hold a load. For vertical or suspended loads that must resist drifting on air loss, add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve. Mounting options include LB foot, FA flange, SDB pivot, and TC trunnion brackets, and the -S magnet allows seamless sensor integration.
Quick checklist
This double-acting cylinder uses a 1/4" port and an M10x1.25 male rod 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.
The needle-set air cushion only decelerates the piston near the stroke end to reduce shock; it is not a brake and will not hold a load on air loss. The -S suffix means a piston magnet is installed, allowing you to mount CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors for position detection.
