The AirTAC Airtac MARF Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MARF40X350S is a genuine double acting + cushion (front mount) standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 350mm 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.
Stretch the MAR platform to 350 mm and you keep the bore 40 output - 628.3 N extend, 527.8 N retract at 0.5 MPa - over a long, smoothly damped travel. The unit is double acting, cushioned variably at both ends, and mounts through its own rolled-on front flange rather than any bolt-on foot. Supply 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) air filtered to 40 um for speeds of 30-800 mm/s.
Washdown-ready hardware: stainless barrel, hard-chrome plated 16 mm rod, aluminium covers packed onto the tube by rolling for a sealed round body. Over a 350 mm stroke, vertical duty equates to about 32 kg lifted with a 2:1 margin, and routine cycle loads should stay near 377 N of push. Standard piston magnet means CMSG / DMSG / EMSG switches report position along the full travel.

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.
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 628 N | 528 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 880 N | 739 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 128 kgf | |
Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a safety margin.

| F | Front-cover mount: F = front-flange mounting. |
| 40 | Bore size in mm. |

MA-family variants: MA / MAC (double acting ±cushion), MSA / MTA (single acting push / pull), MAD / MACD (double rod ±cushion), MAJ / MACJ (adjustable stroke ±cushion), MAR (cushioned with integrated F/U mount). Mounting accessories: FA flange, LB foot, SDB pivot; plus I and Y knuckles. Thread PT (blank) / G / NPT.
350 mm slides a booth access door fully open; stainless surfaces tolerate overspray-laden air and the cushion eases the door shut.
The front flange anchors the fork-shift slide; 628 N at 0.5 MPa shifts pallet forks laterally across the full 350 mm against rail friction.
A 350 mm run ejects cooled housings from a trim press nest; the stroke clears deep nests while retaining margin for castings near 32 kg.
Compare before you commit: bore 32 MAR pushes 402.2 N at 0.5 MPa and bore 50 makes 981.3 N; this 40 mm flange model lands between them at 628.3 N. Long strokes demand straight pulling: bracket the load on an external guide so the chrome rod never sees side force, and fit a rod lock if the load must stay put on air failure, since the cushion neither locks nor holds. Specify PT, G or NPT at the 1/8" port; the magnet is already in the piston.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa: 628.3 N extend, 527.8 N retract. At 0.7 MPa: 879.6 N extend, 738.9 N retract. Theoretical peak 128.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It runs on air filtered to 40 um at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof tested to 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speeds 30-800 mm/s, from -20 to +70 C.
Yes - needle screws at each end cap adjust the variable air cushion independently, so a heavy guided load arrives gently at both ends even at higher speeds within the 30-800 mm/s band. Remember the cushion only dampens the final travel; it does not lock the piston, which will drift if air pressure is lost.
