This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is MBL32X195SCM — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the MBL32X195SCM in place of this model. The MBL replacement upgrades to a riveted rolling-packed body and the current CMSG / DMSG / EMSG sensor switches (the MAL used CS1-M / DS1-M).
Airtac MAL32 Aluminum Alloy Mini Air Cylinder MAL32X195SCM
The AirTAC Airtac MAL32 Aluminum Alloy Mini Air Cylinder MAL32X195SCM is a double-acting aluminum-barrel mini round cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 195mm stroke, G1/8 air ports and a fixed rubber bumper. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the MBL32X195SCM, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac MAL32 Aluminum Alloy Mini Air Cylinder MAL32X195SCM
The AirTAC MAL32X195SCM is a discontinued double-acting aluminum mini round cylinder. It delivers 402 N of push force and 346 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa. AirTAC replaced this legacy unit with the MBL32X195SCM, a drop-in upgrade retaining the exact 32 mm bore, 195 mm stroke, G1/8 port, and CM round-end back cover. You simply order the MBL equivalent for your existing mounting setup.
This SKU includes a built-in magnet (-S) for position detection. The older MAL body used threaded front and back covers, whereas the current MBL features a riveted rolling-packed body for structural integrity. The MAL magnet functions with legacy CS1-M or DS1-M switches, but upgrading to the MBL requires the modern CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensor family. The carbon-steel rod has a 20 um hard chrome plating, and the self-lubricating front-cover bearing guide reduces wear over its 195 mm travel.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC MAL datasheet (now discontinued). The MBL32X195SCM carries the same ratings. Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT / G / NPT.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø32mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 402 N | 346 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 563 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 82 kgf | |
The MBL32X195SCM produces the same force from the same bore — a true drop-in on output. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical; size with a margin.

Where the Airtac MAL32 Aluminum Alloy Mini Air Cylinder MAL32X195SCM Is Used
Textile Loom Tensioning
Pivot-mounts via the CM round-end to maintain yarn tension on a weaving loom, applying 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa across a 195 mm travel path.
Packaging Flap Folder
Actuates cardboard side-flaps on a continuous flow wrapper, utilizing the 195 mm stroke and self-lubricating bearing for high-speed 30-800 mm/s cycling.
PCB Depaneling Saw Gate
Uses the -S magnet and a DS1-M switch to confirm the extended 195 mm position before a circular saw separates circuit boards, ensuring 346 N of retraction force clears the blade.
Replacing the Airtac MAL32 Aluminum Alloy Mini Air Cylinder MAL32X195SCM with MBL32X195SCM
To replace the MAL32X195SCM, order the MBL32X195SCM. Confirm your bore size, 195 mm stroke, G1/8 port, and PT tapered thread are compatible. This unit includes a CM round-end back cover, which is ideal for pivot-mounted rod-end attachments that need to accommodate slight angular misalignment. Because it has the -S magnet, note that your old CS1-M or DS1-M switches will not fit the MBL; you must upgrade to CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors.
If you need to adjust your force output, step down to the 25 mm bore (245 N push at 0.5 MPa) for lighter loads, or step up to the 40 mm bore (628 N push at 0.5 MPa) for heavier demands. At 195 mm of stroke, the 12 mm rod is susceptible to bending under side loads; use an external guide rail or ensure your pivot mounting absorbs the arcing motion. This cylinder uses a fixed rubber bumper, so if your load requires end-of-stroke deceleration, specify the MBLC variant on the current line. A plain MBL does not hold its load when air is lost; add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for position holding.
Upgrade checklist
- ✓ Order the MBL32X195SCM (same bore/stroke/force)
- ✓ Same G1/8 port and mounting accessories
- ✓ Sensor: swap CS1-M/DS1-M → CMSG/DMSG/EMSG
- ✓ Need a cushion? use MBLC (adjustable air cushion)
- ✓ Confirm back cover (CA / U) and thread (PT/NPT/G)
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.1 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Front/rear covers are threaded — not intended for field disassembly.
- check Use the correct mounting accessory (LB / FA / SDB) and back cover (CA / U / CM).
- check For new builds, specify the MBL32X195SCM instead of this discontinued model.
Airtac MAL32 Aluminum Alloy Mini Air Cylinder MAL32X195SCM FAQ
Yes, the MAL32X195SCM is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the MBL32X195SCM. It matches the 32 mm bore, 195 mm stroke, G1/8 port, CM round-end cover, and -S magnet. You must upgrade your sensors, as the old CS1-M/DS1-M switches are replaced by CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors on the MBL.
The bore is 32 mm with a G1/8 port and an M10x1.25 rod-end thread. At 0.5 MPa it provides 402 N push and 346 N pull force. At 0.7 MPa it provides 563 N push. The maximum theoretical force is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It operates on filtered air at 0.1-1.0 MPa.
