About the Airtac MTI Single Acting Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MTI32X60U
Delivering 295.6 N of pull at 0.5 MPa, this round-body mini cylinder uses a single-acting spring-return mechanism where compressed air retracts the rod and an internal spring pushes it back out. Because it rests extended, it provides a fail-safe forward position that stays engaged during air loss. The stainless steel barrel and rod resist mild washdown corrosion. This U-style unit features a 90-degree rear cover and a 1/4 inch port.
Air must be at least 0.2 MPa to overcome the spring for retraction. The Ø32 bore yields a safe working load of roughly 177 N, capable of vertically pulling or holding about 15 kg with a 2:1 safety margin. It lacks a magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors without switching to an -S variant. Fixed TPU bumpers soften the stroke ends without locking the load.

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 | Pull force (spring return) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 295.6 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 388.8 N |
Single-acting pull: the spring extends the rod; air retracts it. Forces already net the spring; minimum working pressure is 0.2 MPa.

Where the Airtac MTI Single Acting Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MTI32X60U Is Used
Fail-Safe Hold-Down Clamp
Keeps a workpiece clamped forward by spring force during an air loss event, using the 295.6 N pull to retract and release the part only when pressurized.
Tensioning Mechanism
Maintains steady belt or web tension in packaging lines, pulling back against the material with air and extending automatically to take up slack at rest.
Normally-Closed Safety Gate
Holds a heavy access gate shut by default, requiring 0.2 MPa of air to pull the 60 mm stroke open and allow personnel or forklift passage.
Is the Airtac MTI Single Acting Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MTI32X60U the Right Cylinder?
Size this 32 mm bore by its 295.6 N pull at 0.5 MPa. If your application needs less force, the Ø25 bore provides 151.1 N; if you need more, the Ø40 bore offers 466.8 N. Remember that useful pneumatic force is only generated on the retract stroke.
The internal spring limits standard travel to 80 mm, making this 60 mm stroke standard. It requires a minimum of 0.2 MPa operating pressure to retract. Mounting options include LB foot, FA flange, SDB pivot-block, and TC trunnion. Choose the -S magnet option if position sensing is required.
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 0.2 – 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 MTI Single Acting Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MTI32X60U FAQ
It generates 295.6 N of pull at 0.5 MPa and 388.8 N at 0.7 MPa. The cylinder is normally extended at rest via an internal spring, and requires at least 0.2 MPa of air pressure to retract the rod.
No, this specific SKU does not have a magnet and cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors. You must select the -S variant for position sensing. It is also strictly single-acting, not double-acting.
