About the Airtac MBL Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MBL32X60SCA
The AirTAC MBL32X60SCA is a compact double-acting aluminum mini round cylinder engineered for tight machine spaces. Operating at 0.5 MPa, it provides 402 N of push force and 346 N of pull force, making this 60 mm stroke variant well-suited for mid-range clamping and ejection tasks. As a genuine AirTAC component, it features a riveted rolling-packed barrel where the front and back covers are crimped directly to the tube, ensuring a lightweight footprint but meaning the body is not designed to be disassembled like a tie-rod cylinder.
This specific SKU includes a built-in magnet (-S) for position detection via AirTAC CMSG reed or DMSG/EMSG electronic sensor switches, and a CA pivot back cover that swings on a pin to accommodate arcing or angular loads. The 12 mm carbon-steel piston rod features 20 µm hard-chrome plating for wear and corrosion resistance, while a heterogeneous two-way piston seal retains grease for extended operational life. End-of-stroke impact is absorbed by a fixed rubber bumper rather than an adjustable air cushion.

Where the Airtac MBL Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MBL32X60SCA Is Used
Packaging Conveyor Diverters
Handles arcing angular loads on packaging lines using its CA pivot back cover, providing 402 N of push force to divert small cartons at 60 mm stroke.
PCB Component Insertion
Uses the built-in magnet with a DMSG electronic sensor to verify 60 mm insertion depth of connectors into circuit boards with 346 N of pull force.
Small Part Ejection
Ejects molded plastic parts from tight machine cavities, relying on the 20 µm chrome-plated 12 mm rod to resist wear during high-speed 30-800 mm/s cycles.
Is the Airtac MBL Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MBL32X60SCA the Right Cylinder?
If you need less force, step down to the MBL25 bore, which yields 245 N of push force at 0.5 MPa; if your application demands more power, step up to the MBL40 bore, providing 628 N at 0.5 MPa. For faster or heavier moves requiring end-of-stroke deceleration, select the MBLC variant, which features an adjustable air cushion instead of the standard fixed rubber bumper. If you require single-acting spring-return operation, look at the MSBL push or MTBL pull types.
This cylinder does not hold its load when air pressure is lost or the valve is centered, as the rod will drift or drop without live pressure. To maintain position, add an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve. Replacement specifications for this unit are: 32 mm bore, 60 mm stroke, G1/8 port size, PT port thread, CA pivot back cover, and a built-in magnet for CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors.
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 MBL32X60SCA FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, the 32 mm bore delivers 402 N of push force and 346 N of pull force. Increasing pressure to 0.7 MPa yields 563 N of push force, with a maximum theoretical force of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, the base MBL features a fixed rubber bumper to soften end impacts and cannot be adjusted. If you need adjustable air cushioning for heavier loads, select the MBLC variant.
