This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is MBL32X750-U — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the MBL32X750-U 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).

The AirTAC Airtac MAL32 Aluminum Alloy Mini Air Cylinder MAL32X750-U is a double-acting aluminum-barrel mini round cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 750mm stroke, G1/8 air ports and a fixed rubber bumper. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the MBL32X750-U, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC MAL32X750-U is a discontinued double-acting aluminum mini round cylinder with a 32mm bore and a 750mm stroke. Because 750mm exceeds the 500mm standard limit, this is a non-standard, made-to-order length. It delivers 402N of push force at 0.5MPa and features a U flat-end back cover for rigid mounting. The exact drop-in replacement is the MBL32X750-U, matching the bore, stroke, force, G1/8 port, and mounting.
This legacy unit uses threaded front and back covers, whereas the current MBL features a riveted rolling-packed body. This specific SKU lacks the -S magnet, meaning it cannot accept a position sensor. It relies on a fixed rubber bumper for end-of-stroke damping. For applications needing an adjustable air cushion, the current MBLC series is the correct upgrade path.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC MAL datasheet (now discontinued). The MBL32X750-U carries the same ratings. Confirm against the product label before installation. Thread options: PT / G / NPT.
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 402 N | 346 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 563 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 82 kgf | |
The MBL32X750-U 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.

Drives a 750mm stroke to push corrugated carton flaps on a packaging conveyor, using the 402N push force to cleanly fold heavy cardboard without stalling.
Mounts rigidly via the U flat-end to a lathe frame, extending 750mm to eject long bar stock from the spindle bore using 346N of pull force at 0.5MPa.
Lifts lightweight plastic tote bins between conveyor tiers in a compact warehouse sorter, relying on a fixed rubber bumper to soften the top stroke impact.
To replace the MAL32X750-U, order the MBL32X750-U. Confirm the 32mm bore, 750mm made-to-order stroke, PT thread, and the U flat-end back cover. If you need to step down, the 25mm bore offers 245N push at 0.5MPa; if you need more force, the 40mm bore provides 628N. Because this is a 750mm stroke, the 12mm rod is highly susceptible to bending under side loads—use an external guide rail or a pivot mount to prevent premature seal wear.
Without a -S magnet, this cylinder cannot support CS1-M or DS1-M switches; the MBL upgrade uses CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. The fixed rubber bumper is not a lock; if the air supply drops, the rod will drift and the load will fall. Install an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for fail-safe holding.
Upgrade checklist
Yes, the MAL32X750-U is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the MBL32X750-U, offering the same 32mm bore, 750mm stroke, force, G1/8 port, and U flat-end mounting. The MBL upgrades the body to a riveted rolling-packed design.
At 0.5MPa it provides 402N push and 346N pull force; at 0.7MPa it provides 563N push, with a maximum theoretical force of 82kgf at 1.0MPa. This SKU lacks a -S magnet, so it cannot take a position sensor; the MBL replacement uses CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches.
