About the Airtac MBL Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MBL32X10SU
The AirTAC MBL32X10SU is a compact double-acting aluminum mini round cylinder engineered for tight machine spaces. Operating at 0.5 MPa, it generates 402 N of push force and 346 N of pull force across its 10 mm stroke. The U flat-end back cover provides a rigid, fixed rear mounting surface ideal for straightforward in-line positioning.
This SKU includes a built-in magnet (-S) for use with AirTAC CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG sensor switches to detect rod position. Unlike tie-rod bodies, the MBL features a riveted rolling-packed aluminum barrel that cannot be disassembled for rebuilding, ensuring a permanently sealed, lightweight footprint. End-of-stroke impact is absorbed by a fixed rubber bumper rather than an adjustable cushion.

Where the Airtac MBL Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MBL32X10SU Is Used
PCB Router Clamping
Provides 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa to hold PCB panels firmly against a routing fixture during high-speed depaneling, using the -S magnet to confirm clamp closure.
Small Part Ejection
Uses its 10 mm stroke and 346 N pull force to rapidly eject small machined aluminum components from a lathe chuck before the robotic loader enters the work zone.
Carton Flap Folding
Powers a short-stroke mechanical flap folder on a compact packaging line, relying on the rigid U flat-end back cover to maintain strict mounting alignment without pivot drift.
Is the Airtac MBL Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MBL32X10SU the Right Cylinder?
For lower force requirements, stepping down to the 25 mm bore yields 245 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, while moving up to the 40 mm bore provides 628 N. Choose the MBLC variant if your application requires adjustable air cushioning for heavier moving masses. Because this is a double-acting cylinder, it cannot hold a load or maintain its position if air pressure is lost or the valve is centered; an external pilot-operated check valve or rod lock is required for secure holding.
Replacement matching requires a 32 mm bore, 10 mm stroke, G1/8 port size, PT thread form, U flat-end back cover, and the -S magnet. The 10 mm stroke moves very quickly, making the fixed rubber bumper essential for preventing harsh impacts at the end of travel.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/NPT/G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Side load — consider a guided cylinder
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 Adjust end cushion screws for smooth stops.
- check Use correct mounting accessory (LB / FA / SDB) and back cover (CA pivot / U flat-end).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac MBL Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MBL32X10SU FAQ
This 32 mm bore cylinder delivers 402 N push and 346 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 563 N push at 0.7 MPa, and a maximum theoretical force of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, the base MBL uses a fixed rubber bumper to soften end-of-stroke impacts. If you need adjustable air cushioning for heavier loads or higher speeds, select the MBLC variant.
