This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is MBL32X75SCAY — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the MBL32X75SCAY 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 MAL32X75SCAY
The AirTAC Airtac MAL32 Aluminum Alloy Mini Air Cylinder MAL32X75SCAY 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 MBL32X75SCAY, which matches its bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac MAL32 Aluminum Alloy Mini Air Cylinder MAL32X75SCAY
The AirTAC MAL32X75SCAY is a discontinued double-acting mini round cylinder featuring a 32mm bore and 75mm stroke. It delivers 402N push and 346N pull at 0.5MPa, utilizing a 12mm carbon-steel rod with 20um hard chrome plating guided by a self-lubricating front-cover bearing. The exact drop-in replacement is the MBL32X75SCAY, matching the bore, stroke, force, G1/8 port, and CA pivot mounting.
This legacy unit uses a heterogeneous two-way seal that retains grease, while the modern MBL upgrades to a riveted rolling-packed body instead of the older threaded front and back covers. Because this SKU includes the -S magnet, it originally paired with CS1-M/DS1-M switches; upgrading to the MBL requires switching to the current CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensor family. The fixed rubber bumper softens end-of-stroke impacts but does not lock the rod.
Airtac MAL32 Aluminum Alloy Mini Air Cylinder MAL32X75SCAY Technical Specifications

| Fluid | Air (filtered by 40µm element) |
|---|---|
| Operating pressure | 0.1 – 1.0 MPa |
| Proof pressure | 1.5 MPa |
| Temperature | -20 to +70 °C |
| Speed range | 30 – 800 mm/s |
| Cushion | Fixed rubber bumper |
| Max standard stroke | Up to 500 mm |
Specifications follow the official AirTAC MAL datasheet (now discontinued). The MBL32X75SCAY 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 MBL32X75SCAY 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 MAL32X75SCAY Is Used
Textile Loom Takedown
Drives the takedown lever on a weaving loom, using the CA pivot bracket to accommodate the swing as the 402N push force at 0.5MPa draws woven fabric.
Bottling Line Diverter
Pivots a guide rail on a packaging conveyor to sort filled bottles, relying on the 75mm stroke and self-lubricating bearing for millions of compact cycles.
Carton Flap Folder
Folds minor carton flaps on a case packer, where the 346N pull force retracts the 12mm rod fast enough to clear the packaging path at 30-800mm/s.
Replacing the Airtac MAL32 Aluminum Alloy Mini Air Cylinder MAL32X75SCAY with MBL32X75SCAY
To replace the MAL32X75SCAY, order the MBL32X75SCAY. Confirm the 32mm bore, 75mm stroke, G1/8 port, and the CA pivot back cover, which allows the cylinder to swing on a pin for arcing loads. If your machine needs less force, step down to the 25mm bore (245N push @0.5MPa); if you need more, step up to the 40mm bore (628N push @0.5MPa, which also upgrades the port to G1/4). The -S magnet on your old unit means you must migrate from CS1-M/DS1-M to CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches. If you need adjustable air cushioning rather than the fixed rubber bumper, specify the MBLC series. Note that a plain cylinder drifts when air is lost, so use an external rod lock for position holding.
Upgrade checklist
- ✓ Order the MBL32X75SCAY (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 MBL32X75SCAY instead of this discontinued model.
Airtac MAL32 Aluminum Alloy Mini Air Cylinder MAL32X75SCAY FAQ
Yes, the MAL32X75SCAY is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the MBL32X75SCAY, which matches the 32mm bore, 75mm stroke, CA pivot back cover, and G1/8 port. You must upgrade your sensors from CS1-M/DS1-M to CMSG/DMSG/EMSG.
The 32mm bore delivers 402N push and 346N pull at 0.5MPa, 563N push at 0.7MPa, and a maximum theoretical force of 82kgf at 1.0MPa. It uses a fixed rubber bumper, not an adjustable cushion.
