The AirTAC Airtac MIC Cushioned Mini Cylinder MIC32X90SCM is a genuine double acting + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 90mm 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 mid-weight tasks. The MIC32X90SCM features a stainless-steel barrel and rod that resist mild corrosion and washdown environments. Unlike fixed bumper models, it uses a variable air cushion at both ends; you turn a needle valve to soak up high-speed end-of-stroke shock, protecting the load and cutting noise.
This 32 mm bore unit pushes 563 N at 0.7 MPa and pulls 483.8 N, with a 1/8" port and an M10x1.25 male rod thread. Because it generates substantial thrust, a safe working load is roughly 241 N, lifting about 20.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. The -S suffix means a built-in piston magnet is present, allowing CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches to track position. The CM round back cover provides a clean rear profile for your mounting layout.

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 at 0.5 MPa to deflect heavy cartons on a high-speed sorting line, relying on the adjustable cushion to stop the rod smoothly without slamming.
Pushes a labeling head down onto containers; the needle-set cushion decelerates the stroke at the bottom to prevent crushing the product or shaking the frame.
Acts as a robust stop for incoming pallets, absorbing the kinetic energy of the load through the dual-end air cushions rather than relying on harsh fixed bumpers.
If you need less force, the smaller Ø25 bore provides 245.3 N of push at 0.5 MPa; for heavier loads, the larger Ø40 bore steps up to 628.3 N. Choose this 32 mm bore when moving masses at high speeds where the adjustable air cushion is essential to prevent impact damage. Speeds range from 30 to 800 mm/s.
Remember that the air cushion only decelerates the piston near the stroke end; it does not act as a lock or brake. If air pressure drops, the piston will drift, so add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for secure load holding. You can mount this unit using LB foot, FA flange, SDB pivot, or TC trunnion brackets.
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, 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. If air pressure is lost or the valve is centered, the piston will drift. You must use an external rod lock or pilot check valve to hold a load securely.
