The AirTAC Airtac MSG Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MSG32X150S is a genuine single acting, push (spring return) JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 150mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a SUS304 stainless-steel barrel with a hard-chrome-plated rod for reliable, mildly corrosion-resistant service.
The AirTAC MSG32X150S is a single acting, push type JIS round-body mini cylinder: compressed air extends the 12 mm rod, and an internal return spring retracts it the moment air is released. With a 32 mm bore and the full 150 mm standard stroke, it delivers about 281.3 N of push at 0.5 MPa (442.1 N at 0.7 MPa), already net of the spring. Because air is only used on the work stroke, one solenoid valve port and one air line are enough, which simplifies plumbing and cuts air consumption on one-way clamp, eject and press duties. Operating pressure runs from 0.2 MPa (28 psi) up to 1.0 MPa (145 psi), with a speed range of 50 to 800 mm/s.
Construction suits damp and washdown-prone lines: a SUS304 stainless barrel, a hard-chrome plated carbon steel rod (20 um chrome), riveted rolled covers and a fixed anti-impact bumper pad that softens the stroke ends. The fitted magnet (-S code) lets you mount CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches for end-of-stroke signalling, and the 1/8" port keeps fittings uniform across the MSG range. For sizing: the 281.3 N push at 0.5 MPa equals roughly 28 kgf, so plan on about 14 kg as a safe vertical-lift load, or around 168 N for a realistic working load. If you ever need a two-directional stroke, step up to the double-acting MG series.

Air extends the rod to clamp a fixture or workpiece; releasing the valve lets the spring retract the clamp automatically, so a dropped air line can never leave the part clamped.
With 281.3 N at 0.5 MPa, the 32 mm bore pushes finished parts off a chute or nest at the end of a cycle, and the spring return readies the cylinder for the next part without a second valve port.
Suited to light press-fitting of caps and lids or lifting a small gate, with about 14 kg as a practical vertical-lift figure and the fixed bumper pad softening the end of each 150 mm stroke.
Choose the MSG32X150S when your one-way work stroke needs mid-range force over the longest standard travel: 281.3 N push at 0.5 MPa, rising to 442.1 N at 0.7 MPa, both already net of the return spring. The 32 mm bore sits between the compact 20/25 mm MSG bores and the strongest 40 mm unit, and 150 mm is the maximum standard stroke for this bore, since spring-return travel caps the family at 150 mm. Remember the spring sets a 0.2 MPa minimum working pressure, and on air loss the spring simply retracts the rod to rest; it does not hold a load or act as a brake. Mounting options are LB foot, FA flange, CB clevis and SDB pivot, plus I and Y rod knuckles, all on the JIS mini footprint. This S-coded model carries a magnet for CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches; if you need cushioning or a longer, two-way stroke, move to the double-acting MG or MGC series.
Quick checklist
This single acting push cylinder gives 281.3 N of push at 0.5 MPa and 442.1 N at 0.7 MPa, both already net of the return spring. Working pressure is 0.2 to 1.0 MPa (28 to 145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), fluid is air filtered to 40 um, temperature range -20 to +70 C, and speed 50 to 800 mm/s. The port is 1/8" on every MSG bore, the rod is 12 mm with an M10x1.25 male thread, and 150 mm is the maximum standard stroke.
Air only acts on the extend side: when you exhaust the valve, the internal spring retracts the rod to its rest position. That means one air line and one valve port, but the spring does not lock or hold a load, and the fixed bumper pad only softens the stroke ends. The S in MSG32X150S means a magnet is fitted, so CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches can be mounted for position signalling. If you need powered retraction or strokes beyond 150 mm, the double-acting MG series is the right choice.
