The AirTAC Airtac MAC Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MAC32X450SCASDB is a genuine double acting + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 450mm 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.
Pivoting motion is what this version is built for: a CA pivot back cover plus an SDB pivot bracket let the MAC32X450SCASDB swing on a pin straight out of the box. The 32 mm double-acting bore pushes 402.2 N and pulls 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa - 563.0 N and 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa, 82 kgf theoretical maximum.
The riveted stainless round body handles damp and lightly corrosive sites far better than painted minis, and the hard-chrome plated 12 mm rod keeps sealing surfaces smooth over the long 450 mm stroke. Variable air cushions at both ends absorb the swing-in shock of a loaded chute or arm. Plan the job around about 241 N of usable force - near 60% of the 0.5 MPa push - and the built-in magnet will drive CMSG / DMSG / EMSG switches without ordering a special piston.

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.
| 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.

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.
Tipping a flap gate on a feed hopper through its arc - the SDB pivot tracks the rotation while 402 N at 0.5 MPa works against the product head load.
Knocking finished parts off a CNC fixture with a swing arm; the cushioned stops keep the arm from cracking against the frame at high cycle rates.
Raising and lowering a stopper lever on a pallet conveyor line, where the stainless barrel tolerates a dusty, occasionally washed corridor.
Loads needing less than about 245 N at 0.5 MPa fit a 25 mm bore; anything over roughly 628 N belongs on the 40 mm model. At 450 mm stroke the pivot mount helps the cylinder follow linkage arcs, but still guide heavy loads so the rod sees little side force. Position is not held if air fails or the valve centres - add a pilot check valve or rod lock for suspended arms. FA flange and LB foot options cover fixed-frame installs, with I / Y knuckles on the rod.
Quick checklist
Push 402.2 N and pull 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa; 563.0 N and 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa; 82 kgf theoretical peak at 1.0 MPa. Operating window 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) of 40 um filtered air, proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), 30-800 mm/s rod speed, 1/8" ports.
The CA pivot back cover plus an SDB pivot bracket give a ready-made pivoting mount. FA flange, LB foot and I / Y rod knuckles can be added for fixed frames, and U or CM back covers exist on other variants for flat or round-end fixings.
