The AirTAC Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC32X475SU is a genuine double acting + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 475mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a stainless-steel barrel and rod for mildly corrosive environments.
Delivering 402.2 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting round-body mini cylinder handles demanding actuation with a 475 mm stroke. The stainless-steel barrel and rod resist mild corrosion, making it suitable for washdown environments. A built-in piston magnet allows integration with CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches for position sensing.
Unlike fixed bumper models, the MIC series features an adjustable air cushion at both ends. You can tune the needle valve to decelerate heavy loads smoothly at high speeds, protecting your machinery from end-of-stroke shock. With a 1/8" port and a safe working load of roughly 241 N, it lifts about 20.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin.

| 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.
Routes heavier packages on a conveyor using the 402.2 N push force, relying on the adjustable cushion to prevent harsh slamming during rapid 475 mm strokes.
Pushes folding carton blanks into position on packaging lines, where the stainless build withstands occasional washdowns and the tuned cushion protects the cardboard from crushing.
Raises and lowers lightweight access gates, safely lifting loads around 20.5 kg while the needle valve ensures the gate settles softly without mechanical impact.
When sizing this 32 mm bore, stepping down to a MIC25 model reduces the 0.5 MPa push force to 245.3 N, while stepping up to a MIC40 increases it to 628.3 N. Choose this unit when moving substantial mass at high cycling rates, as the adjustable end cushions absorb kinetic energy that a standard bumper cannot. The U-style 90-degree rear cover offers flexible port and mounting orientation.
Remember that the air cushion only decelerates the piston 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-operated check valve. Because this SKU includes the -S magnet, it is fully ready for CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG sensors.
Quick checklist
This 32 mm bore cylinder features a 1/8" port and an M10x1.25 male rod thread. It generates 402.2 N push and 345.6 N pull at 0.5 MPa, increasing to 563 N push and 483.8 N pull at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical maximum force is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Yes, the -S suffix indicates a built-in piston magnet for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors. However, the adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near stroke end and does not act as a lock; you need an external rod lock or pilot check valve to hold a load on air loss.
