The AirTAC Airtac MARU Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MARU32X225S is a genuine double acting + cushion (up mount) standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 225mm 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.
With a 225 mm stroke, this MARU32X225S reaches deep into guards and fixtures while delivering 402.2 N of push force at 0.5 MPa from its 32 mm bore. The round stainless barrel is riveted to aluminium covers, so the body stands up to washdown and damp shop air that would corrode painted mini cylinders. It runs on 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) at 30-800 mm/s.
Plan real work around 241 N rather than the full 402.2 N rating; that margin keeps seals and rod bushings cool over millions of cycles. Both stroke ends carry a variable air cushion, and the up-mount bracket is part of the front cover, so no separate foot or flange is ordered. CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches snap onto the built-in magnet without any special piston.

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.

| 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.
Raising a 20 kg gate or counterweight on a packaging line, using the 2:1 margin on the 41 kg theoretical lift of the 32 mm bore.
Pushing cartons sideways off a wide belt in one move; the 225 mm stroke crosses the belt with 402.2 N of extension force behind it.
Rinsing stations and sample lifts where the stainless barrel and hard-chrome rod shrug off repeated splash that rusts painted bodies.
At this force class, compare the 25 mm bore MAR (245.3 N push at 0.5 MPa) if your load is lighter and space is tight, or step to the 40 mm bore (628.3 N) for heavier press fits. The 225 mm stroke stays within the 500 mm standard range, but long rods are side-load sensitive - guide the load externally and keep thrust axial. The rod thread is M10x1.25 and the air port is 1/8". Remember the MAR does not hold position on air loss; fit a rod lock where the load must stay put.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 402.2 N and pulls 345.6 N; at 0.7 MPa push rises to 563.0 N. Theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 82 kgf. Ports are 1/8" and the rod thread is M10x1.25.
No. The magnet is built in as standard, so CMSG, DMSG and EMSG switches mount directly on the barrel and read end-of-stroke or mid positions out of the box.
