This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is MBL32X75-S-CM — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the MBL32X75-S-CM 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 MAL32X75-S-CM
The AirTAC Airtac MAL32 Aluminum Alloy Mini Air Cylinder MAL32X75-S-CM is a double-acting aluminum-barrel mini round cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 75mm stroke, G1/8 air ports and a fixed rubber bumper. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the MBL32X75-S-CM, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac MAL32 Aluminum Alloy Mini Air Cylinder MAL32X75-S-CM
The AirTAC MAL32X75-S-CM is a discontinued double-acting compact aluminum mini round cylinder. Featuring a 32mm bore and 75mm stroke, it delivers a push force of 402 N and pull force of 346 N at 0.5 MPa. The direct drop-in replacement is the MBL32X75-S-CM, which matches the bore, stroke, output force, G1/8 port, and CM round-end back cover exactly for a seamless swap.
This legacy SKU includes a built-in magnet (-S) for position sensing with older CS1-M or DS1-M switches, whereas the modern MBL replacement uses CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors. The original MAL features threaded front and back covers, while the newer MBL utilizes a riveted rolling-packed body. Both designs rely on a fixed rubber bumper for end-of-stroke impact absorption, meaning the rod will drift if air pressure is lost and cannot hold a load securely.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC MAL datasheet (now discontinued). The MBL32X75-S-CM 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 MBL32X75-S-CM 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 MAL32X75-S-CM Is Used
Carton Erector Flaps
Provides 402 N of push at 0.5 MPa to reliably open and fold corrugated cardboard flaps on high-speed packaging lines, utilizing the CM round-end cover for compact rear mounting.
PCB Router Clamping
Holds printed circuit boards firmly during routing and depaneling processes, with the -S magnet enabling CS1-M sensors to confirm clamp engagement before the spindle starts.
Blister Pack Indexing
Indexes blister packaging film with precise 75mm strokes in tight pharmaceutical machinery, where the self-lubricating front-cover bearing guide ensures smooth operation without external grease.
Replacing the Airtac MAL32 Aluminum Alloy Mini Air Cylinder MAL32X75-S-CM with MBL32X75-S-CM
To replace the MAL32X75-S-CM, order the MBL32X75-S-CM. Verify your 32mm bore, 75mm stroke, G1/8 port, PT tapered thread, CM round-end back cover, and the -S magnet requirement. If you need to adjust the force, stepping down to a 25mm bore yields 245 N push at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to a 40mm bore provides 628 N push. Remember that the fixed rubber bumper is not an adjustable cushion; if your application requires end-of-stroke deceleration, upgrade to the current-line MBLC. Because this is a double-acting cylinder, it does not hold position upon air loss—install an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for safety. At a 75mm stroke, side-load risk is low, but the 12mm carbon-steel rod still has limited tolerance for arcing loads.
Upgrade checklist
- ✓ Order the MBL32X75-S-CM (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 MBL32X75-S-CM instead of this discontinued model.
Airtac MAL32 Aluminum Alloy Mini Air Cylinder MAL32X75-S-CM FAQ
Yes, the MAL32X75-S-CM is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the MBL32X75-S-CM, which shares the same 32mm bore, 75mm stroke, 402 N push force, G1/8 port, and CM round-end back cover. The main change is that the older threaded covers are replaced by a riveted rolling-packed body, and the -S magnet now requires CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches instead of the legacy CS1-M or DS1-M sensors.
The MAL32X75-S-CM features a G1/8 port and a 12mm carbon-steel rod with an M10x1.25 rod-end thread. At 0.5 MPa, it delivers 402 N push and 346 N pull. At 0.7 MPa, the push force is 563 N. The maximum theoretical force is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
