This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is MBLD32X200 — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the MBLD32X200 in place of this model. The MBLD replacement upgrades to a riveted rolling-packed body and CMSG / DMSG / EMSG sensors (the MAL used CS1-M / DS1-M).
Airtac MALD Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MALD32X200
The AirTAC Airtac MALD Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MALD32X200 is a double-acting, double-rod aluminum mini cylinder: a rod exits both ends of the Ø32mm bore, so push and pull force are equal. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the MBLD32X200, matching bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac MALD Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MALD32X200
The AirTAC MALD32X200 is a discontinued double-acting, double-rod pneumatic cylinder. A Ø32mm bore with a 200mm stroke yields equal force both ways at 346 N (0.5 MPa) and 484 N (0.7 MPa). The exact drop-in replacement is the MBLD32X200, matching bore, stroke, port, and mounting.
This twin-rod design resists rotation and doubles the bearing load for guided slides. The MALD uses threaded covers and a fixed rubber bumper, while the MBLD upgrade features a riveted rolling-packed body. This SKU lacks the -S magnet, so it cannot accept a position sensor.
Airtac MALD Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MALD32X200 Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac MALD Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MALD32X200 |
|---|---|
| Series | MALD double-rod mini cylinder (discontinued) |
| Replacement | MBLD32X200 |
| Bore size | Ø32 mm |
| Stroke | 200 mm |
| Acting type | Double acting, double rod |
| Port size | G1/8 |
| Rod thread | M10×1.25 |
| 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 |
Double-rod types have no back-cover code and no SDB pivot; mount on the body, LB foot or FA flange. The MBLD32X200 carries the same ratings.
Output Force — Equal Both Ways (Ø32mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 346 N | 346 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 484 N | 484 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 70 kgf | |
A rod exits both ends, so the effective area — and force — is equal in both directions. The MBLD32X200 matches these values.
Model Code: Airtac MALD Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MALD32X200

Replacement: MALD → MBLD. No back-cover (CA/U/CM) and no SDB on double-rod. Mounting: LB / FA.
Where the Airtac MALD Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MALD32X200 Is Used
PCB Depaneling Saw
Drives a synchronized cutting head on a depaneling router, using the twin rods to resist blade rotation while delivering 346 N of equal push and pull force at 0.5 MPa.
Textile Beam Loom
Actuates a tensioning guide on a weaving loom, where the fixed rubber bumper absorbs the end-of-stroke impact and the double-rod layout maintains parallel tracking without twist.
Bottle Capping Turret
Indexes a capping head on a rotary filling line, applying 484 N at 0.7 MPa to tighten caps while the rear rod extension carries a cam flag to trigger the next machine cycle.
Replacing the Airtac MALD Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MALD32X200 with MBLD32X200
Replace the MALD32X200 with the MBLD32X200, confirming the 32mm bore, 200mm stroke, G1/8 port, and M10x1.25 rod-end thread. Mounting uses FA flange or LB foot on the body, as there is no back cover or SDB option. Size your load on the equal 346 N force at 0.5 MPa.
To step down, the 25mm bore provides 206 N at 0.5 MPa. To step up, the 40mm bore yields 528 N at 0.5 MPa. For this 200mm stroke, ensure adequate guide support to prevent rod side-loading and premature seal wear.
Upgrade checklist
- ✓ Order the MBLD32X200 (same bore/stroke/force)
- ✓ Force equal both ways (346 N at 0.5 MPa)
- ✓ Twin rods for anti-rotation / rear flag
- ✓ No back cover / SDB — plan a body or FA/LB mount
- ✓ Sensor: swap CS1-M/DS1-M → CMSG/DMSG/EMSG
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.1 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Protect both rod ends from side load on long strokes.
- check No back-cover / SDB on double-rod — use body / FA / LB.
- check Front/rear covers are threaded — not for field disassembly.
- check For new builds, specify the MBLD32X200 instead of this discontinued model.
Airtac MALD Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MALD32X200 FAQ
Yes, the MALD32X200 is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the MBLD32X200, which matches the 32mm bore, 200mm stroke, G1/8 port, and equal both-ways force. The MBLD upgrades the construction to a riveted rolling-packed body from the original threaded covers.
Being a double-rod cylinder, the push and pull forces are equal: 346 N at 0.5 MPa, 484 N at 0.7 MPa, and a maximum of 70 kgf at 1.0 MPa. This specific SKU lacks the -S magnet, so it cannot accept a position sensor; the original -S version used CS1-M/DS1-M switches, while the MBLD replacement uses CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors.
