About the Airtac MBL Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MBL32X35CA
The AirTAC MBL32X35CA is a compact double-acting aluminum mini round cylinder engineered for tight machine spaces. It delivers a robust 402 N push force at 0.5 MPa, making its 35 mm stroke well-suited for intermediate clamping and ejection tasks. The riveted rolling-packed barrel crimps the front and rear covers directly to the tube, ensuring a lightweight footprint that is not designed to be disassembled like a tie-rod body.
This specific SKU features a CA pivot (clevis) back cover, allowing the cylinder body to swing freely on a pin to absorb angular misalignment and arcing loads. Internally, a heterogeneous two-way piston seal retains grease for long service life, while the Ø12 mm carbon-steel piston rod features 20 µm hard-chrome plating for superior wear resistance. Note that because this configuration lacks the -S suffix, it cannot accept a CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position sensor.

Where the Airtac MBL Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MBL32X35CA Is Used
Pivot Arm Clamping
Ideal for swinging a machining fixture arm, using the CA clevis to absorb angular motion while providing 402 N of clamping thrust.
Sorting Diverter Gate
Drives a short 35 mm stroke diverter gate on a packaging line, where the compact aluminum body fits neatly between conveyor rollers.
Carton Push-off
Ejects small folded cartons from a filling station, utilizing the 346 N pull force to retract the kicker arm rapidly.
Is the Airtac MBL Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MBL32X35CA the Right Cylinder?
Select this 32 mm bore model when your application requires roughly 400 N of push force at 0.5 MPa but lacks the space for a larger profile cylinder. If you need less force, stepping down to the 25 mm bore yields 245 N; if you need more power, stepping up to the 40 mm bore provides 628 N. The CA clevis mount is essential here for pivoting mechanisms, whereas a rigid flat-end U cover would suit straight-line thrust.
Keep in mind the base MBL uses a fixed rubber bumper to soften end-of-stroke impacts, not an adjustable air cushion—if you need shock tuning for heavier moving masses, choose the MBLC variant. Additionally, a plain MBL does not hold its position if air pressure drops or the valve is centered; the rod will drift. Use an external pilot-operated check valve if load holding is required. For exact replacement, match the 32 mm bore, 35 mm stroke, G1/8 port, PT thread, and CA pivot cover.
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 MBL32X35CA FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, this double-acting cylinder provides 402 N push and 346 N pull force. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 563 N. The theoretical maximum force is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa, and it operates at a speed range of 30-800 mm/s.
No, this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet suffix, so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG electronic switches. Additionally, the base MBL uses a fixed rubber bumper for end-of-stroke damping; for adjustable air cushioning, you must upgrade to the MBLC variant.
