About the Airtac MBL Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MBL32X80SCA
The AirTAC MBL32X80SCA is a double-acting aluminum mini round cylinder engineered for tight machine spaces where a larger profile body will not fit. At 0.5 MPa it delivers 402 N of push force and 346 N of pull force across its 80 mm stroke. The riveted rolling-packed barrel crimps the front and rear covers directly to the tube, yielding a light, compact footprint that is not designed to be disassembled like a traditional tie-rod cylinder.
This specific SKU features a built-in magnet (-S) for use with AirTAC CMSG (reed) or DMSG/EMSG (solid-state) sensor switches to track rod position. It uses a CA pivot back cover, allowing the cylinder body to swing on a pin to accommodate arcing or angular loads. The Ø12 mm carbon-steel piston rod features 20 µm hard-chrome plating for wear and corrosion resistance, paired with a heterogeneous two-way piston seal that retains grease for long service life.

Where the Airtac MBL Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MBL32X80SCA Is Used
PCB Router Z-Axis Swing
Leverages the 402 N push force and CA pivot back cover to drive a routing spindle on an arc, accommodating angular entry into thick printed circuit boards.
Semiconductor Wafer Gate
Uses the built-in magnet with a DMSG solid-state switch to confirm a 80 mm stroke position, opening a load-lock chamber door in a compact footprint.
Bottle Divert Arm
Employs the 346 N pull force to retract a lightweight deflector flap on a packaging conveyor, swinging on its clevis mount to clear passing containers.
Is the Airtac MBL Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MBL32X80SCA the Right Cylinder?
If you need less force, step down to the 25 mm bore (245 N push @0.5 MPa); if your application requires more power, step up to the 40 mm bore (628 N push @0.5 MPa). This 32 mm model hits a solid middle ground for mid-duty clamping. Because this is a base MBL cylinder, end-of-stroke deceleration relies on a fixed rubber bumper rather than an adjustable air cushion—choose the MBLC variant if your payload requires regulated cushioning.
With an 80 mm stroke, the Ø12 mm rod is well-supported, but if your mechanism loses air pressure, this cylinder cannot hold its load—the rod will drift or drop. Use an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for fail-safe position holding. This SKU uses a PT port thread, a G1/8 port, and an M10x1.25 rod-end thread.
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 MBL32X80SCA FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, this 32 mm bore cylinder provides 402 N push and 346 N pull force. At 0.7 MPa, push increases to 563 N, with a maximum theoretical force of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The port size is G1/8 with a PT thread form, and the rod-end thread is M10x1.25.
No, the base MBL32X80SCA uses a fixed rubber bumper to soften end-of-stroke impact. It does not feature an adjustable cushion screw. If your application involves heavy fast-moving loads requiring regulated deceleration, select the MBLC variant instead.
