The AirTAC Airtac MTI Single Acting Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MTI32X80SCM is a genuine single acting, pull (spring return) round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 80mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and a stainless-steel barrel and rod for mildly corrosive environments.
Delivering 295.6 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, this AirTAC round-body mini cylinder is built for robust retraction tasks. The MTI32X80SCM is a single-acting, spring-return PULL type, meaning compressed air fed through its 1/4" port retracts the rod, while an internal spring pushes it back out. Because it rests in the extended state, the rod stays forward during an air loss event, creating a fail-safe extend for normally-closed gates. The stainless-steel barrel and rod resist mild corrosion and washdown environments.
This 32 mm bore model provides a safe working load of roughly 177 N, or a vertical lift capacity of about 15.1 kg when applying a 2:1 safety margin. It features a 12 mm rod with an M10x1.25 male thread, and fixed TPU bumper pads soften the stroke endpoints. The included -S magnet enables position sensing with CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches, and the CM rear cover provides a specific mounting and port orientation.

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.
| 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.

MI-family variants: MI / MIC (double acting ±cushion), MSI / MTI (single acting push / pull), MID / MICD (double rod ±cushion), MIJ / MICJ (adjustable stroke ±cushion). Back covers CA / U / R / CM. Mounting LB / FA / SDB / TC.
Keeps a clamping mechanism engaged with the rod extended by default, using its 295.6 N pull to retract only when air is applied.
Blocks a conveyor lane at rest; the spring holds the gate shut until 0.2 MPa of air pulls the 80 mm stroke back to release items.
Maintains steady belt or web tension via spring extension, using the 1/4" port to pneumatically release the pull when needed.
Size this unit strictly by its pull force: the 32 mm bore yields 295.6 N at 0.5 MPa, sitting above the 25 mm bore (151.1 N) and below the 40 mm bore (466.8 N). Remember that the internal spring requires at least 0.2 MPa of air pressure to overcome and retract the rod. The 80 mm stroke represents the maximum standard travel for this bore; longer distances are non-standard.
Mounting options include LB foot, FA flange, SDB pivot-block, and TC trunnion brackets. Because this SKU includes the -S magnet, it is fully ready for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors. The bumper pads decelerate the stroke end but do not lock the load; on air loss, the spring drives the rod to the fully extended position.
Quick checklist
It provides a pull force of 295.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 388.8 N at 0.7 MPa. It requires at least 0.2 MPa to overcome the spring and retract. At rest or on air loss, the spring keeps the rod fully extended.
Unlike a double-acting cylinder that uses air for both directions, this single-acting pull type uses air only to retract. The -S suffix means it has a built-in magnet for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors.
