The AirTAC Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC32X50CM is a genuine double acting + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 50mm 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 heavier tasks with smooth deceleration. The stainless-steel barrel and rod resist mild corrosion and washdown, while the CM round rear cover keeps port orientation clean for tight layouts. A 1/8" port feeds the bore, and the M10x1.25 male rod thread secures the load.
Twin adjustable air cushions let you dial in needle valves to absorb end-of-stroke shock at high speeds up to 800 mm/s, protecting the workpiece and cutting noise. In practice, it yields a safe working load of roughly 241 N, lifting about 20.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. Note this SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot host CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors; choose the -S variant for position detection.

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.
| 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.

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 knock heavy cartons off a belt at 600 mm/s, relying on the twin air cushions to stop the rod softly without slamming the end cap.
Folds thick cardboard flaps on a washdown packaging line where the stainless barrel shrugs off mild moisture and the CM cover keeps the rear port compact.
Presses small bearings into housings with a 241 N safe working load, using the adjustable needle to decelerate the tooling just before contact for precise seating.
When sizing this 32 mm bore, dropping down to the MIC25X50 gives 245.3 N of push at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to the MIC40X50 raises that to 628.3 N. Keep this model when your payload sits near the 241 N safe working load and you need high-speed cushioning. The needle-set air cushion only decelerates the piston near stroke end; it does not lock the rod. If air loss occurs, the piston will drift, so fit an external rod lock or pilot check valve to hold a suspended load.
Mounting options include LB foot, FA flange, SDB pivot, and TC trunnion brackets to suit your frame. Because this specific SKU has no internal magnet, it cannot accept position switches; you would need the -S version to mount CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors.
Quick checklist
This double-acting cylinder uses a 1/8" air 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, 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, this specific SKU does not include an internal magnet, so it cannot host CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. You must select the -S variant to enable magnetic sensing. The adjustable air cushion at both ends only decelerates the piston and does not act as a brake or position lock.
