About the Airtac MICD Air Cushion Double Rod Mini Cylinder MICD32X225
Twin guiding rods exit both covers of this stainless round-body mini cylinder, yielding equal thrust in both directions while actively resisting rotational twist. At 0.5 MPa it generates 345.6 Newtons of force, and the adjustable air cushions at each end soak up high-speed end-of-stroke shock.
Built with a 1/4 inch port and an M10x1.25 male rod thread, the 32 mm bore operates at speeds from 30 to 800 mm/s. A practical safe working load is roughly 207 Newtons, meaning it can vertically lift about 17.6 kg with a 2:1 safety margin. Note this specific SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot host CMSG or DMSG switches without upgrading to an -S variant.

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.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø32mm)
| Pressure | Force (both ways) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 346 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 484 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 70 kgf |
Double-rod: a rod exits both covers, so output force is equal in both directions (rod-side area used).

Where the Airtac MICD Air Cushion Double Rod Mini Cylinder MICD32X225 Is Used
Carton Diverting
Pushes packages sideways at high speed where the twin rods prevent twisting and the adjustable cushions stop the 345.6 N impact smoothly.
Component Sealing
Applies equal clamping pressure in both directions on a 225 mm stroke, decelerating gently at the ends to protect delicate assembly tooling.
Pallet Stopper
Uses the rear protruding rod as a physical stop while the front rod handles the 17.6 kg load, absorbing kinetic energy via the dual cushions.
Is the Airtac MICD Air Cushion Double Rod Mini Cylinder MICD32X225 the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 32 mm bore, stepping down to the MICD25 drops the equal-both-ways output to 206.1 N at 0.5 MPa, while the larger MICD40 raises it to 527.8 N. Choose this twin-rod configuration when your mechanism requires symmetrical force, anti-rotation stability, and shock absorption at high travel speeds. The adjustable cushion only decelerates the piston near the stroke ends; it does not brake or hold the load, so add an external pilot check valve if position retention is required on air loss.
Mounting options include LB foot, FA flange, and TC trunnion blocks, but the SDB pivot block is not compatible with this double-rod design. Because this exact model is shipped without a magnet, it cannot support magnetic sensing; select the -S version to enable CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switch integration.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT / G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Back cover (CA/U/R/CM) & mount (LB/FA/SDB/TC)
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Do not dismantle the riveted front/back covers.
- check Use correct back cover (CA/U/R/CM) & mount (LB/FA/SDB/TC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac MICD Air Cushion Double Rod Mini Cylinder MICD32X225 FAQ
Because a rod exits both ends, the force is equal both ways. It provides 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa, 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa, and a maximum theoretical force of 70.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, this specific SKU does not include a magnet and cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. You must select the -S magnet option for sensing capabilities alongside the adjustable air cushions and stainless build.
