The AirTAC Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC32X530SCM is a genuine double acting + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 530mm 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 is built for demanding actuation. The MIC32X530SCM features a stainless-steel barrel and rod to resist mild corrosion and washdown environments. A 530 mm stroke makes this a non-standard, made-to-order unit that exceeds the 500 mm standard maximum, providing extra reach for long-travel tasks.
Twin adjustable air cushions at both ends allow you to tune end-of-stroke deceleration, absorbing shock and cutting noise at high cycling speeds. The built-in piston magnet (-S) supports CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG position switches. With a safe working load around 241 N, it lifts about 20.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. The 1/8" port and CM round rear cover complete this robust assembly.

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.
Pushes heavy cartons across a wide conveyor belt using its 530 mm travel, relying on the adjustable air cushion to stop the 402.2 N thrust smoothly without slamming.
Actuates packaging flaps or side guides on oversized pallets, where the stainless build resists dust and the tuned cushion protects fragile goods at high speed.
Extends and retracts a picking tray over 530 mm; the 1/8" port drives rapid cycling while the needle-set cushion prevents end-of-stroke jarring on elevated structures.
When sizing this 32 mm bore, dropping down to a MIC25 unit reduces the push force to 245.3 N at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to a MIC40 increases it to 628.3 N. Choose this 530 mm non-standard stroke only when your application strictly requires travel beyond 500 mm. The adjustable air cushion is essential here, as long strokes build significant momentum that a fixed rubber bumper cannot adequately absorb.
Remember that the air cushion only decelerates the piston near the stroke end; it does not function as a lock or brake. If your load must remain held during air loss or when a valve is centered, the piston will drift, requiring an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve. Mounting options include LB foot, FA flange, SDB pivot, and TC trunnion brackets.
Quick checklist
This 32 mm bore cylinder uses a 1/8" port and a 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.
No, the adjustable air cushion only decelerates the piston near the end of the stroke and acts purely as a shock absorber, never as a brake. If air loss occurs or the valve is centered, the piston will drift. Use an external rod lock or pilot check valve for position holding.
