The AirTAC Airtac B52-MA Copper-Free Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder B52-MA32X350SCM is a genuine double acting standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø0mm bore and 350mm stroke, PT/G air ports and a stainless-steel barrel with a hard-chrome-plated rod for reliable, mildly corrosion-resistant service.
A 32 mm bore round-body mini cylinder with a generous 350 mm stroke, the MA32X350SCM runs double acting on clean dry air and lands in the mid force class: 402.2 N pushing and 345.6 N pulling at 0.5 MPa (72.7 psi). At a working margin of 60 percent you can count on roughly 241 N of usable push, which is enough to lift a part of about 20 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety factor. The stainless-steel round barrel paired with a 20 um hard-chrome plated rod resists washdown and damp shop air far better than painted minis, while the riveted aluminium covers keep the envelope tight. Every unit carries fixed anti-impact bumper pads that soften stroke-end deceleration, and the magnet is built in as standard, so CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches mount straight onto the tube.

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.

A 350 mm reach lets this 32 mm cylinder sweep cartons across the full depth of a palletizing station, with 402.2 N of push at 0.5 MPa handling off-center boxes without stalling.
Raising a 20 kg weld fixture between stations is comfortable territory here - the vertical-lift margin of the 402 N bore keeps the motion smooth while the magnet feeds a DMSG switch for top-of-stroke signaling.
Sliding a machine guard door over a 350 mm opening suits this stroke; the fixed bumper pads cushion the door at each end of travel, and the stainless barrel tolerates coolant mist near the spindle.
Check the force band before committing: a 25 mm bore MA delivers 245.3 N at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to 40 mm buys you 628.3 N, so 32 mm sits squarely between the two. Remember this cylinder releases its load the moment air is vented or the valve centres - for a load that must stay in place, pair it with a rod lock or pilot check valve. The SCM suffix gives you the CM round-end back cover, and FA flange, LB foot or SDB pivot mounts bolt on without machining. With 350 mm of travel, support the stroke laterally or guide the load externally; a 12 mm rod can buckle or bow if side loads ride on it. The 1/8" ports suit standard PT fittings.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa (72.7 psi) this 32 mm bore pushes with 402.2 N and pulls with 345.6 N. Raise supply to 0.7 MPa (101.5 psi) and push climbs to 563.0 N with 483.8 N on the pull stroke. The theoretical maximum is 82.0 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure spans 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with proof pressure of 1.5 MPa (215 psi), rod speed 30-800 mm/s, and air filtered to 40 um.
The CM round-end cover gives a compact, flush rear face that tucks into tight machine frames where a pivot eye would snag. Combine it with an FA flange, LB foot or SDB pivot bracket to lock the 350 mm stroke in place, and the standard built-in magnet accepts CMSG, DMSG or EMSG reed switches without ordering a special piston.
