Airtac B52-MA Copper-Free Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder B52-MA32X150SU
The AirTAC Airtac B52-MA Copper-Free Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder B52-MA32X150SU is a genuine double acting standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø0mm bore and 150mm stroke, PT/G air ports and a stainless-steel barrel with a hard-chrome-plated rod for reliable, mildly corrosion-resistant service.

About the Airtac B52-MA Copper-Free Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder B52-MA32X150SU
The MA32X150SU pairs a 32 mm bore with a 150 mm stroke and a U flat-end back cover, so the rod side of the cylinder is a plain fixed face you can bolt straight against a machine plate without a bracket. Double acting with fixed anti-impact bumper pads, it pushes 402.2 N (about 41 kg of theoretical force) at 0.5 MPa and holds 345.6 N on the retract stroke. The riveted stainless round barrel shrugs off mild corrosion and washdown far better than painted-steel minis, and the 12 mm hard-chrome plated rod resists wear over long travel. For day-to-day sizing, treat roughly 241 N as the usable work force at 0.5 MPa; that means the cylinder comfortably drives a 15 to 20 kg part through clamping or indexing. A magnet is built in as standard, so CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches bolt on directly for end-of-stroke signalling.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC MA-series datasheet. Barrel: stainless-steel tube (round-body, riveted rolling-packed construction); piston rod: carbon steel with 20µm hard-chrome plating; covers: aluminium alloy. Thread options: PT (blank) / G / NPT. Every MA-series cylinder ships with a built-in magnet for CMSG / DMSG / EMSG position sensors.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø0mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 0 N | 0 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 0 N | 0 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 0 kgf | |
Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a safety margin.

Where the Airtac B52-MA Copper-Free Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder B52-MA32X150SU Is Used
Fixture clamping on CNC jigs
Clamping a machined aluminium workpiece in a milling fixture needs steady push through a long reach; 402 N at 0.5 MPa (working figure about 241 N) holds light-to-medium parts while the 150 mm stroke clears chip covers and loading space.
Reject pusher on a packaging line
A mid-line reject arm must kick a carton sideways off the belt in one fast move. At 30-800 mm/s with 345.6 N of pull force, this cylinder retracts the pusher clear of traffic between products, and the bumper pads soften both stroke ends.
Dispense head lift on a lab filler
Lifting a small filling nozzle assembly of roughly 15 to 20 kg vertically suits the halved lift margin (about 20 kg practical) at 0.5 MPa. The stainless barrel tolerates rinse-down between product changeovers, and the magnet signals the raised position to the controller.
Is the Airtac B52-MA Copper-Free Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder B52-MA32X150SU the Right Cylinder?
Check the force class before ordering: a 25 mm bore gives 245.3 N at 0.5 MPa, this 32 mm gives 402.2 N, and stepping up to 40 mm raises it to 628.3 N. If your application only needs 200 to 250 N of push, the smaller bore saves air; if the job exceeds about 241 N of real work, move up. Remember that a plain MA drifts when air is removed or the valve centres, so add a pilot check valve or rod lock if the load must stay put. For the 150 mm stroke, minimise side load on the 12 mm rod and guide the part externally where possible. The U flat-end cover suits fixed mounting, and FA flange or LB foot brackets can be added; the port is 1/8 in and the rod thread is M10x1.25. G or NPT port threads are available to order instead of the standard PT.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT / G / NPT)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) is standard for sensors
- ✓ Back cover (CA/U/CM) & mount (FA/LB/SDB)
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Do not dismantle the riveted front/back covers.
- check Bumper models: keep speed within the rated range.
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac B52-MA Copper-Free Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder B52-MA32X150SU FAQ
At 0.5 MPa the 32 mm bore pushes 402.2 N and pulls 345.6 N; at 0.7 MPa push rises to 563.0 N and pull to 483.8 N. Theoretical maximum force is 82.0 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The cylinder runs on filtered air at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with a speed range of 30-800 mm/s, and the 150 mm stroke falls inside the standard range for this bore.
U designates a flat-end back cover, a fixed mounting face machined flat so the cylinder bolts against a plate without a pivot bracket; CA pivot and CM round-end covers are the alternatives. Every MA cylinder is supplied with a built-in magnet as standard, so CMSG, DMSG or EMSG reed or electronic switches clip straight onto the stainless barrel to signal rod position, no special-order piston needed.
