About the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC32X40SCM
Delivering 402.2 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this stainless-steel round-body mini cylinder brings adjustable air cushioning to demanding 32 mm bore tasks. The needle-set cushions at both ends soak up high-speed end-of-stroke shock, protecting your payload and cutting workshop noise. A built-in piston magnet (-S) enables CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG electronic switches for position sensing, while the CM round rear cover keeps the 1/8" porting orientation clean and compact.
Built with a riveted stainless barrel and rod, the double-acting construction handles mild washdown and corrosion risks better than standard units. It operates at speeds from 30 to 800 mm/s. For practical sizing, expect a safe working load of roughly 241 N, meaning it lifts about 20.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. The male M10x1.25 rod thread and 40 mm stroke make it a robust choice for compact automation.

Where the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC32X40SCM Is Used
Package Diverting
Handles 20 kg cartons at high cycle rates where the adjustable air cushion prevents harsh slams during rapid direction changes.
Clamp Actuation
Provides 402 N of solid clamping force for mid-weight metal parts, using the M10 rod thread to secure tooling fixtures.
Vertical Lifting
Lifts approximately 20.5 kg packaging flaps with a 2:1 safety margin, relying on the stainless rod for mild washdown areas.
Is the Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC32X40SCM the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 32 mm bore unit, step down to a MIC25 model (245.3 N push @0.5 MPa) for lighter loads, or step up to a MIC40 (628.3 N push @0.5 MPa) if you need more muscle. The adjustable air cushion matters most when driving heavier masses at high speeds, as it prevents harsh mechanical impacts. Remember that the cushion only decelerates the piston near the stroke end; it does not lock or hold the load. If your application must prevent drift on air loss, add an external rod lock or pilot check valve. Mounting options include LB foot, FA flange, SDB pivot, and TC trunnion brackets.
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 MIC32X40SCM FAQ
This double-acting 32 mm bore cylinder uses a 1/8" air port and an M10x1.25 male rod thread. 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 adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near the end of the stroke to reduce shock; it is not a brake or lock. The piston will drift if air is lost. For load holding, install an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve. The -S magnet supports CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors.
