The AirTAC Airtac MARU Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MARU32X125S is a genuine double acting + cushion (up mount) standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 125mm 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.
Push, pull and retract over a 125 mm span: the MARU32X125S gives bore 32 force - 402 N out and 345.6 N back at 0.5 MPa - in a riveted stainless round body that shrugs off washdown, condensation and mild outdoor exposure better than painted minis.
The variable air cushion at both ends absorbs the stop, so you can run near the top of the 30-800 mm/s band without denting the aluminium covers. Mounting is handled by the front-cover bracket (U = up/top here), and the piston magnet is standard equipment for CMSG, DMSG and EMSG sensing. For sizing, treat about 241 N at 0.5 MPa as the usable push; the 41 kg vertical-lift equivalent halves to about 20 kg with a 2:1 margin, which is the part weight it can realistically raise.

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 | 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.

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.
Presses foil lids onto dairy tubs ahead of the final sealer; 402 N at 0.5 MPa over a 125 mm downstroke reaches into the guard cavity of the rotary filler.
Raises a light parts tote to operator height in a goods-to-person picking bay; about 20 kg of vertical capability at 0.5 MPa keeps a 2:1 margin on the load.
Feeds pouches into the case-packer magazine; the 125 mm stroke spans the infeed gap and 345.6 N of pull at 0.5 MPa retracts the blade before the next case indexes.
Compare real numbers: bore 25 MAR pushes 245.3 N at 0.5 MPa, this bore 32 does 402.2 N, and bore 40 delivers 628.3 N. On a 125 mm stroke, avoid side loading - hang the load from a guide or slide, since the 12 mm rod is not a bearing. Nothing locks the piston if air is lost; supply pressure is the only thing holding position, so a separate rod lock is the fix for fail-safe holding. The top bracket is integral, and I or Y rod knuckles thread onto the M10x1.25 male rod thread.
Quick checklist
Use 402.2 N push and 345.6 N pull at 0.5 MPa, or 563.0 N push and 483.8 N pull at 0.7 MPa, with 82 kgf as the theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa. The rod thread is M10x1.25 male and the air port is 1/8 inch for bore 32.
No - the front cover carries an integral U-type bracket, so the cylinder bolts straight to the machine plate without a separate flange or foot. At commissioning, adjust the cushion needle screws at both ends so the 125 mm stroke stops smoothly across the 30-800 mm/s speed range.
