Airtac MAC Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MAC32X175SCA
The AirTAC Airtac MAC Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MAC32X175SCA is a genuine double acting + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 175mm 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.

About the Airtac MAC Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MAC32X175SCA
Cushioning at both ends and a 175 mm stroke make the MAC32X175SCA a natural pick for pivoting motions that reverse hard. This 32 mm double-acting mini cylinder delivers 402 N of push and 346 N of pull at 0.5 MPa (563 N and 484 N at 0.7 MPa) on a 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) air supply.
The CA pivot back cover is the headline: it bolts straight to a clevis or pin mount without fabricated brackets, keeping the rod aligned through swing angles. Inside, a riveted stainless barrel carries a hard-chrome 12 mm rod, so washdown and outdoor humidity do not flake the body the way paint does on ordinary minis. In vertical terms the push at 0.5 MPa equates to 41 kgf, so with a 2:1 margin plan on lifting about 20 kg - and the built-in magnet accepts CMSG or DMSG switches as standard, no special-order piston needed.

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 (Ø32mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 402 N | 346 N |
| 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.

Where the Airtac MAC Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MAC32X175SCA Is Used
Conveyor diverter flap
The CA pivot swings a sorting gate on a parcel line; 402 N at 0.5 MPa flips loaded boxes and the two-end cushion takes the slap out of each reversal.
Bottle-rinse spray arm
Pivoted on a clevis, the rod raises a rinse manifold through 175 mm; the stainless construction shrugs off the wet, occasionally caustic wash zone.
Machine guard door swing
A linkage off the pivot cover opens an interlocked acrylic guard; CMSG or EMSG switches signal closed position back to the safety relay.
Is the Airtac MAC Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MAC32X175SCA the Right Cylinder?
Size up or down easily: the 25 mm bore gives 245 N at 0.5 MPa, while stepping to 40 mm raises push to 628 N. For a 175 mm stroke this long, guide the load on external slides to protect the rod from bending under side force. Note the cylinder will not hold a stopped position - if air is removed the piston coasts - so fit a rod lock or pilot check valve where holding matters. The CA pivot pairs cleanly with SDB brackets, and FA flange or LB foot options cover fixed frames.
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 On first run, back off the cushion screws and release gradually.
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac MAC Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MAC32X175SCA FAQ
At 0.5 MPa the 32 mm piston pushes 402 N and pulls 346 N; at 0.7 MPa push climbs to 563 N and pull to 484 N, with 82 kgf the theoretical peak at 1.0 MPa (145 psi). The air port is 1/8", rod thread is M10x1.25, stroke 175 mm, speed 30-800 mm/s.
The CA option turns the rear cover into a pivot point, so a clevis or pin mount attaches directly with no bracket fabrication. Combined with the variable cushion at both ends, it suits swinging or reciprocating linkages rather than rigid straight pushes.
