The AirTAC Airtac MAC Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MAC32X600SU is a genuine double acting + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 600mm 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.
Even at a working 0.5 MPa - half the 1.0 MPa ceiling - the rod still delivers 402.2 N of push, tapping close to the bore's theoretical 82 kgf. Keep real loads near 241 N and the cylinder will hold speed and seal life far longer across its 30-800 mm/s range.
The U flat-end back cover presents a flat, fixed face for direct mounting to a machine member - no pivot, no adapter. A 20 kg vertical lift at 0.5 MPa leaves a 2:1 margin, handy for raising gates or counterweighted slides. Stainless barrel plus a 20 um hard-chrome rod stands up to washdown and rain, the double-acting design with a variable cushion soaks up end-of-stroke shock at both ends, and the standard-built magnet feeds CMSG / DMSG / EMSG switches. At 600 mm the stroke exceeds the 500 mm standard cap, so it ships as a made-to-order length.

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.
| MAC | Standard round-body mini cylinder (double-acting, variable cushion). |
|---|---|
| 32 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×600 | Stroke length in mm. |
| -S | Built-in magnet for CMSG / DMSG / EMSG sensors (standard on MA series). |
| CA / U / CM | Back-cover type: CA pivot, U flat-end, CM round-end. |
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.
Feeds blanks across a 600 mm trim press table; the U flat-end face bolts straight to the slide without adapters.
Raises a counterweighted guard hatch of about 20 kg, keeping a 2:1 lift margin at 0.5 MPa for smooth, reliable opening.
Drives a sliding perimeter gate on a welding robot cell, with EMSG switches wired into the interlock loop at both ends of travel.
Bore 25 offers 245.3 N at 0.5 MPa if you are over-specced; bore 40 lifts the push to 628.3 N when more force is needed. This cylinder will not hold its stroke against gravity once air is vented - plan a rod lock or pilot check valve into the circuit. The U flat-end cover mounts flush to a plate; FA flange, LB foot and SDB pivot round out the options. On a 600 mm stroke, keep external guides close to the load so the hard-chrome rod never sees bending loads.
Quick checklist
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; 82 kgf theoretical at 1.0 MPa. It is double-acting on filtered air at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), running 30-800 mm/s.
Yes - the stainless round barrel and 20 um hard-chrome rod cope with rain and condensation that rust painted minis, and the U flat end gives a fixed, flat mounting face. Remember the cylinder cannot hold load without air; a rod lock or pilot check valve handles that job.
