Airtac MARF Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MARF32X500S
The AirTAC MARF Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MARF32X500S is a genuine double acting + cushion (front mount) standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 500mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a stainless-steel barrel with a hard-chrome-plated rod for reliable, mildly corrosion-resistant service. A variable air cushion at both ends lets you tune end-of-stroke deceleration on site.

About the Airtac MARF Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MARF32X500S
Nothing in the 32 mm MAR range travels farther than 500 mm, and MARF32X500S reaches that ceiling as a standard catalog stroke, not a made-to-order build. Double-acting air with an adjustable cushion at both ends covers 30-800 mm/s, thrust is 402 N push against 345.6 N pull at 0.5 MPa, and the front flange arrives as part of the cover so you bolt it down with no extra accessories.
For long service life, size the job around 241 N of working thrust instead of the full rating. The rolled stainless tube and hard-chrome 12 mm rod cope with humid shops and light washdown that would pit painted bodies, and the factory magnet means CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches clip on straight away.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC MA-series datasheet. Barrel: stainless-steel tube (round-body, riveted rolling-packed construction); piston rod: carbon steel with 20µm hard-chrome plating; covers: aluminium alloy. Thread options: PT (blank) / G / NPT. Every MA-series cylinder ships with a built-in magnet for CMSG / DMSG / EMSG position sensors.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø32mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 402 N | 346 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 563 N | 484 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 82 kgf | |
Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a safety margin.

Where the Airtac MARF Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MARF32X500S Is Used
Divert gate on a pallet conveyor spur
Slides the gate its full 500 mm as pallets branch off; the conveyor frame guides the motion so the long rod sees no bending.
Film-tension bar on a wrapping station
Draws the web taut across a long draw; needle cushions tune the reversal so the film never snaps at end of stroke.
Lead drawer in a hi-pot test rig
Pulls the heavy test harness 500 mm clear between stations, using the 345.6 N retract force to reel the cable home.
Is the Airtac MARF Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MARF32X500S the Right Cylinder?
Drop to the 450 mm version if travel allows - same 402 N output at 0.5 MPa. Thrust-hungry jobs should step to the 40 mm bore at 628 N; lighter ones save space with the 25 mm bore at 245 N. A 500 mm rod overhang demands clean alignment and externally guided loads to protect the 12 mm rod from bending. Remember the cylinder will not hold a load on lost air - add a rod lock for that. Mounting and switching need no accessories: the flange is integral and the magnet is standard.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT / G / NPT)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) is standard for sensors
- ✓ Back cover (CA/U/CM) & mount (FA/LB/SDB)
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Do not dismantle the riveted front/back covers.
- check On first run, back off the cushion screws and release gradually.
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac MARF Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MARF32X500S FAQ
Yes - 500 mm is the catalog maximum for the 32 mm MAR bore, so MARF32X500S ships as a normal stock item. Force is travel-independent: 402 N push / 345.6 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 563 N / 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa, 82 kgf peak at 1.0 MPa. Operating band 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof 1.5 MPa (215 psi).
The rolled stainless tube with its hard-chrome plated 12 mm rod resists the corrosion that bubbles painted-steel minis in damp, food or outdoor locations, and the riveted aluminium covers plus grease-storing piston seal keep maintenance simple. Confirm exact dimensions from the datasheet before machining mating parts.
