Airtac MAC Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MAC32X50SCAH
The AirTAC Airtac MAC Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MAC32X50SCAH is a genuine double acting + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 50mm 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 MAC32X50SCAH
Short on space, big on push: this 50 mm stroke MAC32X50SCAH packs 402.2 N at 0.5 MPa into a compact round stainless body, double acting with a variable air cushion trimming each end stop. The 32 mm bore pairs a stainless tube with a 20 um hard-chrome plated 12 mm rod and rolled aluminium covers, a combination that survives washdown corners where painted minis corrode.
Plan mechanisms around about 241 N of usable push - roughly six tenths of the 0.5 MPa rating - equal to raising about 20 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. CMSG, DMSG and EMSG switches attach directly because the piston magnet is part of the standard build. Note that the trailing H in this ordering code is not a listed back-cover or mount letter; confirm its exact meaning from the datasheet before ordering.

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.

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.
Where the Airtac MAC Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MAC32X50SCAH Is Used
Small-part ejector
Ejects formed brass inserts from an assembly dial plate; 50 mm is enough throw and the cushion stops the insert firing off the plate.
Bench clamp fixture
Clamps a gearbox cover on a bench drilling jig; 563.0 N push at 0.7 MPa holds the part against drilling thrust.
Mould slide return
Returns a plastic mould slide core between shots; a DMSG switch on the standard magnet proves the home position every cycle.
Is the Airtac MAC Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MAC32X50SCAH the Right Cylinder?
Force ladder at 0.5 MPa: 245.3 N for a MAC25, 402.2 N for this bore, 628.3 N for a MAC40. The 50 mm stroke suits eject and clamp motions where a long rod would be a liability; ports are 1/8 inch, rod thread M10x1.25, air 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), speed 30-800 mm/s.
This is a free-drifting double-acting cylinder: when the valve centres or pressure fails, the load moves, so a rod lock or pilot check valve does the holding. The CA pivot back cover pairs with clevis linkages, or add an FA flange or LB foot for rigid fixing; the H suffix must be confirmed from the datasheet as noted above.
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 MAC32X50SCAH FAQ
At 0.5 MPa the MAC32X50SCAH pushes 402.2 N and pulls 345.6 N; at 0.7 MPa push is 563.0 N and pull 483.8 N; theoretical peak is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Working to about 241 N of push keeps friction and pressure dips inside the margin.
Both. The piston magnet is built in on every MAC, ready for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches, and each end carries a variable air cushion with its own needle screw - open it fully before first run and close gradually. Proof pressure is 1.5 MPa (215 psi) against a 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) working band.
