The AirTAC Airtac MTG Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MTG32X150S is a genuine single acting, pull (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 MTG32X150S is a JIS-standard round-body mini cylinder built for single acting pull duty: 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 150 mm stroke, it delivers about 225 N of net pull at 0.5 MPa and 363 N at 0.7 MPa, already after the spring, so the figures you see are the forces available at the rod. Only one air line is needed, which simplifies plumbing and keeps valve and fitting costs down on one-way draw, retract, close, or tension motions.
Construction is a riveted SUS304 stainless barrel with a hard-chrome 12 mm rod (male thread M10x1.25) and a 1/8" port on every bore, so it stands up to damp and washdown environments while keeping the JIS mini footprint. This S-coded model carries a magnet, so CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches can be clamped on for end-of-stroke signalling. A fixed anti-impact bumper pad softens the stroke ends. In practical terms, a safe working pull is roughly 135 N, which will lift or hold about 13 kg vertically at a conservative margin; if you need two-way travel or strokes beyond 150 mm, step up to the double-acting MG series.

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.
Air pulls a locating or locking pin out of position; when air is removed, the spring pushes the pin back in automatically, giving a fail-to-extend rest state with a single valve and one air line.
The constant spring force keeps a roller loaded against a moving web or tape while air strokes retract the roller for threading or splice changes; about 225 N pull at 0.5 MPa suits light-to-medium tension arms.
Draws a slide, shutter, or gate closed on demand; on air loss the spring returns the rod to extended, so the mechanism can be arranged to open or release safely without control power.
Size the MTG by net pull, not bore alone. Within the MTG range, bore 32 sits mid-scale: about 225 N pull at 0.5 MPa versus 85 N for the 20 mm bore and 339 N for the 40 mm bore. If your load needs more than roughly 135 N of continuous working pull (about 0.6 of the rated figure), move to MTG40; for light pin or latch duty, MTG20 or MTG25 saves space and air. Remember the direction of operation: the spring extends the rod and air retracts it, and the spring sets a 0.2 MPa minimum working pressure, so verify your supply never dips below that. Standard strokes for this bore top out at 150 mm; for longer strokes or powered return, choose the double-acting MG. Mounting options are LB foot, FA flange, CB clevis, and SDB pivot, plus I and Y rod knuckles. The S in this model means the magnet is fitted for CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches; order without S if no sensing is needed. Ports are 1/8" across all MTG bores, with PT thread standard and G or NPT available.
Quick checklist
Net pull (already after the return spring) is 224.8 N at 0.5 MPa and 363 N at 0.7 MPa. Operating pressure is 0.2-1.0 MPa (28-145 psi) with a 0.2 MPa minimum set by the spring, proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), working temperature -20 to +70 C, and speed range 50-800 mm/s on air filtered to 40 um.
The internal spring extends the rod at rest; applying air retracts (pulls) it, and on air loss the spring pushes the rod back out. The MSG series is the mirror image (spring retracts, air pushes), while the MG series is double acting with air on both strokes for powered return and strokes beyond 150 mm. This S-coded model also carries a magnet for CMSG/DMSG/EMSG position switches; the bumper pad softens stroke ends but is not a lock or brake.
