About the Airtac MBLC Aluminum Alloy Mini Air Cylinder MBLC32X150SCA
The AirTAC MBLC32X150SCA is a double-acting aluminum mini cylinder featuring a 32mm bore and 150mm stroke. It generates 402N of push force and 346N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, making it well-suited for mid-range linear motion tasks. Unlike the base MBL series, this variant utilizes a screw-adjustable pneumatic cushion at both stroke ends to smoothly decelerate the piston, minimizing impact stress on the end covers during high-frequency or heavier moves.
This specific configuration includes a CA pivot/clevis back cover, allowing the body to swing on a pin to accommodate angular, arcing loads. It features a built-in magnet (-S) for compatibility with AirTAC CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG sensor switches to track rod position. The riveted rolling-packed aluminum barrel keeps the body compact for tight spaces, while the 20 µm hard-chrome plated carbon-steel rod resists wear against the heterogeneous two-way grease-retaining piston seal.

Where the Airtac MBLC Aluminum Alloy Mini Air Cylinder MBLC32X150SCA Is Used
Textile Loom Guide
Drives a 150mm yarn guide arm on a weaving loom, using the 402N push force at 0.5 MPa to shift the assembly while the CA pivot absorbs frame oscillation.
Pallet Diverting Arm
Actuates a swing-arm diverter at a packaging transfer station, where the tunable air cushion prevents the 150mm stroke from slamming into the end cap during rapid 60+ cycles per minute.
PCB Shuttle Pusher
Positions bare circuit boards into an inspection lane, relying on the DMSG electronic sensor to confirm the 150mm extension before the clamping sequence begins.
Is the Airtac MBLC Aluminum Alloy Mini Air Cylinder MBLC32X150SCA the Right Cylinder?
For sizing flexibility, stepping down to the 25mm bore yields 245N push at 0.5 MPa, whereas stepping up to the 40mm bore provides 628N push at 0.5 MPa for heavier demands. Choose this MBLC version over the fixed rubber bumper of the standard MBL when operating at higher speeds that require tunable end-of-stroke deceleration. As a 150mm stroke falls below the 300mm threshold, side-load risk is moderate, but the CA clevis back cover inherently compensates for angular misalignment. Keep in mind the adjustable air cushion only decelerates near the ends; it is not a brake, so the rod will drift if air is lost or the valve centers. Replacement match: 32mm bore, 150mm stroke, G1/8 port, M10x1.25 rod thread, PT thread form, CA pivot back cover, no mounting bracket, with magnet.
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 MBLC Aluminum Alloy Mini Air Cylinder MBLC32X150SCA FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, this 32mm bore cylinder delivers 402N push and 346N pull force. At 0.7 MPa, it provides 563N push, with a maximum theoretical output of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The air supply connects via a G1/8 port, and the rod-end thread is M10x1.25.
A screw-tunable needle valve at both ends traps a small pocket of exhaust air to decelerate the piston smoothly before it hits the cover. You dial the needle to match your load and speed, which cuts impact noise and vibration. This is superior to a fixed rubber bumper for fast cycles, but it does not lock or hold the rod position when air is removed.
