The AirTAC Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC32X50SU 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, the AirTAC MIC32X50SU is a robust double-acting round-body mini cylinder built for demanding tasks. Its stainless-steel barrel and piston rod resist mild corrosion and washdown environments. A built-in piston magnet (-S) supports CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG position switches, while the U-style 90-degree rear cover simplifies port and mounting orientation. The 1/8 inch port feeds the 12 mm rod to generate substantial thrust.
Unlike basic bumper models, this unit features an adjustable air cushion at both ends. Turning the cushion needle lets you dial in the deceleration to absorb high-speed end-of-stroke shock, protecting the load and cutting noise. For practical sizing, expect a safe working load around 241 N, which means 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.
Handles heavier carton diverting on conveyors where the 402.2 N push force and adjustable cushions absorb the impact of rapid direction changes at high speed.
Ideal for securing heavier packaging materials during sealing operations, using the 241 N safe working load to hold items firmly without bouncing.
Raises and lowers light access gates or stops, easily managing the 20.5 kg vertical lift capacity while the needle-set cushions prevent slamming.
When sizing this 32 mm bore, stepping down to a 25 mm MIC bore drops the 0.5 MPa push force to 245.3 N, whereas stepping up to a 40 mm bore raises it to 628.3 N. Choose this model when moving heavier masses at high speeds, as the adjustable air cushion becomes essential to prevent harsh impacts. Note 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 a pilot-operated check valve.
Mounting options include LB foot, FA flange, SDB pivot, and TC trunnion brackets. Because this SKU includes the -S magnet, you can directly mount CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors for precise end-position detection.
Quick checklist
This 32 mm bore cylinder features a 12 mm piston rod, an M10x1.25 male rod thread, and a 1/8 inch air port. 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 force of 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. You must use an external rod lock or pilot check valve for load holding. The -S magnet allows CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG sensors for position feedback.
