The AirTAC Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC32X80SCM is a genuine double acting + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 80mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a stainless-steel barrel and rod for mildly corrosive environments.
With a 402.2 N push at 0.5 MPa, the AirTAC MIC32X80SCM delivers serious force in a compact round-body package. Its stainless-steel barrel and piston rod shrug off mild corrosion and washdown residue, making it a dependable choice for damp or humid production areas.
The defining feature is the variable air cushion at both ends. A simple needle adjustment lets you tune deceleration precisely, so high-speed loads settle without the bang and vibration you get from a bumper-style mini. This 32 mm bore unit carries a built-in magnet (-S) for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches, and its 1/8" port suits standard shop air lines.

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.
Move 20 kg payloads at speed with confidence. The adjustable cushion absorbs the kinetic energy at each end, preventing jarring stops that could misalign grippers or damage delicate components.
Control product flow on a conveyor line. The 402.2 N push at 0.5 MPa provides ample force to position stop gates, while the cushion ensures quiet, controlled actuation even at high cycle rates.
Push finished cartons off a packaging line. The stainless-steel body resists the occasional dust and moisture found in packing areas, and the adjustable cushion keeps the ejection stroke smooth and repeatable.
This 32 mm bore cylinder is the sweet spot for medium-force automation. If you need less muscle, the 25 mm bore delivers 245.3 N push at 0.5 MPa; if you need more, the 40 mm bore steps up to 628.3 N. The adjustable cushion earns its keep when you're running fast cycles with heavy tooling - it protects both the load and the machine from end-of-stroke shock.
Remember, this is a double-acting cylinder: it won't hold a load in position if air pressure drops or the valve centers. The cushion only decelerates near stroke end, it's not a brake. For positive holding, add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve. The -S magnet means CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches will track the piston position reliably.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, push force is 402.2 N and pull is 345.6 N. At 0.7 MPa, push rises to 563 N and pull to 483.8 N. The theoretical maximum is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure range is 0.15 to 1.0 MPa, with proof pressure at 1.5 MPa.
The cushion uses a needle valve at each end to control exhaust air flow, letting you fine-tune deceleration and eliminate end-of-stroke shock. It only slows the piston near the end of travel-it does not lock or hold a load. The -S suffix means a built-in magnet is included, allowing CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors to detect piston position.
