The AirTAC Airtac MTG Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MTG32X100 is a genuine single acting, pull (spring return) JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 100mm 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 MTG32X100 is a single acting, pull-type JIS round-body mini cylinder: an internal spring holds the rod extended at rest, and compressed air retracts (pulls) it on the work stroke. With a 32 mm bore and 100 mm stroke it delivers about 224.8 N of net pull at 0.5 MPa and 363 N at 0.7 MPa, figures already measured after the spring, so what you see on the datasheet is what reaches the load. One air line is all it needs, which keeps plumbing simple and suits one-way draw, retract, close or tension motions. Because the spring must be overcome, the minimum working pressure is 0.2 MPa (28 psi) and the standard stroke tops out at 150 mm for this bore.
Construction follows the JIS mini-cylinder footprint with a riveted SUS304 stainless barrel and a hard-chrome plated 12 mm rod (male thread M10x1.25), so it stands up to damp and washdown environments better than painted bodies. A fixed anti-impact bumper pad softens the stroke ends but is not a lock or brake: on air loss the spring simply pushes the rod back out to its extended rest position. Air supply should be filtered to 40 um, operating pressure spans 0.2-1.0 MPa (28-145 psi) with 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof rating, temperature range is -20 to +70 C, and speed runs 50-800 mm/s. Ports are 1/8" on every MTG bore. As a practical sizing insight, halving the 224.8 N pull (about 22 kgf) gives a safe vertical load figure of roughly 11 kg. Add the optional S magnet code to fit CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches.

Single-acting pull: the spring extends the rod; air retracts it. Forces already net the spring; minimum working pressure is 0.2 MPa.

MG-family variants: MG / MGC (double acting ±cushion), MSG / MTG (single acting push / pull), MGD / MGCD (double rod ±cushion). Accessories: LB foot, FA flange, CB clevis, SDB pivot block, plus I and Y knuckles. Thread PT (blank) / G / NPT.
Spring holds a indexing or locking pin out; air pulls the 224.8 N rod in to release the mechanism, restoring automatically on air loss.
Pulls a light web, tape or film under controlled tension on packaging and converting lines, with the spring taking up slack between strokes.
Draws small slide shutters, chutes or gates closed on hoppers and enclosures; the spring reopens them the moment air pressure drops.
Choose the MTG32X100 when your working motion is a one-way pull of about 135 N or less at 0.5 MPa (0.6 of the 224.8 N net pull is a realistic continuous rating) over a 100 mm stroke. Bore 32 sits mid-range in the MTG family: bore 20 gives 84.8 N pull at 0.5 MPa for lighter duties, while bore 40 reaches 339.1 N when you need more draw force. Remember the direction of operation: the spring extends the rod and air retracts it, with a 0.2 MPa (28 psi) minimum working pressure because the spring must be overcome. The spring return also caps standard strokes at 150 mm on this bore; if you need two-way powered travel or a longer stroke, step up to the double-acting MG series. Mounting options are LB foot, FA flange, CB clevis and SDB pivot, plus I and Y rod knuckles; thread is PT, with G and NPT available. This unit has no magnet, so position sensing requires the -S option to accept CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches.
Quick checklist
The 32 mm bore gives a net pull of 224.8 N at 0.5 MPa and 363 N at 0.7 MPa, already after the return spring. Operating pressure is 0.2-1.0 MPa (28-145 psi) with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, air filtered to 40 um, speed 50-800 mm/s, and a working temperature of -20 to +70 C. The port is 1/8" and the rod is 12 mm with male thread M10x1.25.
In this pull version the internal spring extends the rod at rest and compressed air retracts it; on air loss the rod returns to extended, so it does not hold a load and the bumper pad is not a brake. The MSG series is the mirror image (spring retracts, air pushes), while the MG series is double acting with air in both directions for two-way travel and strokes beyond the 150 mm spring-return limit. Add the -S magnet option to fit CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensors.
