The AirTAC Airtac MAC Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MAC32X105SCA is a genuine double acting + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 105mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a stainless-steel barrel with a hard-chrome-plated rod for reliable, mildly corrosion-resistant service. A variable air cushion at both ends lets you tune end-of-stroke deceleration on site.
Rolled and riveted from a stainless-steel tube rather than stacked with tie rods, this 32 mm bore MAC keeps its seal under damp, dusty packaging-line air while the hard-chrome 12 mm rod cycles through 105 mm of stroke. It is double acting: 402.2 N of push and 345.6 N of pull at 0.5 MPa, rising to 563 N at 0.7 MPa, with an adjustable cushion at each end absorbing the stop.
The CA pivot back cover takes a clevis pin directly, so pivoting linkages need no adapter plate. In practical terms this bore lifts about 41 kg vertically at full 0.5 MPa push, or around 20 kg with a 2:1 safety margin, which makes matching real part weights straightforward. Pressure range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), and the standard built-in magnet works with CMSG / DMSG / EMSG reed switches.

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.

| 0.7 MPa | 563 N | 484 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 82 kgf | |
Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a safety margin.

MA-family variants: MA / MAC (double acting ±cushion), MSA / MTA (single acting push / pull), MAD / MACD (double rod ±cushion), MAJ / MACJ (adjustable stroke ±cushion), MAR (cushioned with integrated F/U mount). Mounting accessories: FA flange, LB foot, SDB pivot; plus I and Y knuckles. Thread PT (blank) / G / NPT.
Ejecting a sliding chip drawer on a small CNC lathe each cycle; 402 N clears swarf-packed drawers across the full 105 mm stroke.
Advancing the container-stopping finger on a sleeve labeler so cans queue one at a time; the CA pivot eye pins straight to the trigger linkage.

Compare 0.5 MPa push forces when sizing: bore 25 gives 245.3 N, this bore 32 gives 402.2 N, and bore 40 gives 628.3 N, so pick the smallest that clears your load with headroom. A plain MAC does not hold position on air loss; fit a rod-lock version or an external check valve where a load must stay put. The CA pivot cover plus the standard magnet handles clevis mounting and CMSG / DMSG / EMSG sensing in one order code, and external guiding is wise at 105 mm stroke to keep bending off the rod.
Quick checklist
Rated 402.2 N push and 345.6 N pull at 0.5 MPa; 563.0 N push and 483.8 N pull at 0.7 MPa; about 82 kgf theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa. It is double acting on 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) air filtered to 40 um.
The pivot eye on the back cover takes a clevis pin directly, so swing links and levers mount without adapter plates. Add FA flange or LB foot brackets if the body itself must be fixed, and the built-in magnet pairs with CMSG / DMSG / EMSG position switches out of the box.
