The AirTAC Airtac MBLC Aluminum Alloy Mini Air Cylinder MBLC32X200U is a genuine double-acting aluminum-barrel mini round cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 200mm 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 MBLC32X200U is a double-acting aluminum mini cylinder engineered for compact actuation over a 200 mm stroke. It yields 402 N of push and 346 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, scaling to 563 N push at 0.7 MPa. The defining trait of this MBLC variant is the screw-adjustable pneumatic cushioning at both ends, which decelerates the piston smoothly near stroke limits to absorb kinetic energy on faster moves.
This specific SKU features a U flat-end back cover for rigid rear mounting and uses a standard PT tapered port thread. The riveted rolling-packed aluminum barrel keeps the body light for tight spaces, while the 20 µm hard-chrome plated carbon-steel rod resists wear. Note that this configuration lacks a built-in magnet, meaning it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position sensors.

Pushes cartons at 500 mm/s onto a secondary packaging lane, relying on the adjustable cushion to halt the 402 N push force without slamming the rear cover.
Actuates a 200 mm routing gate on a PCB assembly conveyor, using the rigid U flat-end mount to maintain frame alignment during high-frequency indexing.
Shifts a yarn tensioning guide across a 200 mm path, where the tunable end-of-stroke deceleration prevents thread snap-back caused by sudden stops.
For sizing context, stepping down to a 25 mm bore drops the 0.5 MPa push force to 245 N, while stepping up to a 40 mm bore increases it to 628 N. Choose this MBLC version over the base MBL when your cycle speeds or moving mass outpace the capabilities of a fixed rubber bumper. Keep in mind the adjustable needle only decelerates the piston near the ends; it is not a brake and will not hold the load if air pressure drops. To replace this unit exactly, match the 32 mm bore, 200 mm stroke, G1/8 port, M10x1.25 rod thread, PT thread form, and U back cover. Because the 200 mm stroke is substantial for a Ø12 mm rod, side-load tolerance is low; utilize an external guide or a pivot mount to prevent rod bending.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, this 32 mm bore cylinder provides 402 N of push force and 346 N of pull force. At 0.7 MPa, the push force reaches 563 N and the pull force is 484 N. The maximum theoretical force is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
A screw-tunable needle at each end traps a pocket of exhaust air, decelerating the piston smoothly before impact. You tune it to match the load and speed, which protects the end covers on fast cycles. It is strictly an end-of-stroke damper, not a locking brake.
