The AirTAC Airtac MBL Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MBL32X800SU is a genuine double-acting aluminum-barrel mini round cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 800mm stroke, G1/8 air ports and a fixed rubber bumper. Its compact riveted body suits push, hold and clamp motion in tight machine spaces.
The AirTAC MBL32X800SU is a double-acting aluminum mini round cylinder engineered for compact spaces requiring a very long reach. It delivers 402 N of push force and 346 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, making it suitable for moving lighter components over an extended 800 mm travel distance. Because 800 mm exceeds the standard 500 mm maximum, this unit is manufactured as a made-to-order stroke. The riveted rolling-packed barrel keeps the body light and compact, though it is not designed to be disassembled and rebuilt like a tie-rod cylinder.
This specific SKU includes a U flat-end back cover for rigid fixed mounting and a built-in magnet (-S) for position detection. The Ø12 mm carbon steel piston rod features 20 µm hard-chrome plating for wear resistance, and the heterogeneous two-way piston seal retains grease for long service life. The integrated magnet allows you to track the rod's position using AirTAC CMSG (reed), DMSG, or EMSG (electronic solid-state) sensor switches.

Uses the 800 mm stroke to push cartons across a wide conveyor belt, relying on the 402 N push force to redirect lightweight boxes without stalling the line.
Indexes material beams in textile machinery, where the long travel moves the beam into a staging area and the U flat-end cover provides rigid rear anchoring.
Extracts small tote bins from high-density automated storage racks, using the -S magnet and DMSG solid-state sensor to confirm full extension at 800 mm.
At 0.5 MPa, this 32 mm bore generates 402 N of push force. If your application requires less force, the next size down is the 25 mm bore (245 N push). If you need to move heavier loads, step up to the 40 mm bore (628 N push). For applications needing end-of-stroke deceleration at high speeds, consider the MBLC variant, which features an adjustable air cushion instead of this model's fixed rubber bumper. If you only need a push or pull action without live air on both sides, the MSBL or MTBL single-acting cylinders (available in 20-40 mm bores) are alternatives.
Because this stroke is 800 mm, the unsupported Ø12 mm rod is highly susceptible to bending under side loads. You must use an external guide, a pivot mounting accessory, or consider the MBLD double-rod cylinder to prevent rod bearing damage. Additionally, the fixed rubber bumper only softens end-of-stroke impacts; it is not a locking mechanism. If the load must be held in place when air pressure is lost or the valve is centered, you will need an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve, as the rod will drift or drop otherwise.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 402 N and the pull force is 346 N. At 0.7 MPa, the push force is 563 N. The maximum theoretical force is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It operates between 0.15-1.0 MPa, runs at 30-800 mm/s, and uses a G1/8 port.
No, the base MBL32X800SU uses a fixed rubber bumper to soften end-of-stroke impacts, not an adjustable cushion screw. If you need adjustable air cushioning for faster cycle speeds or heavier masses over that long stroke, you must use the MBLC variant.
