The AirTAC Airtac MBLC Aluminum Alloy Mini Air Cylinder MBLC32X300SCA is a genuine double-acting aluminum-barrel mini round cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 300mm 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 MBLC32X300SCA is a double-acting aluminum mini cylinder featuring a 32mm bore and a 300mm stroke. It delivers 402N of push force and 346N of pull force at 0.5 MPa. A built-in magnet (-S) enables position detection using CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensor switches. The CA back cover provides a pivot clevis for arcing loads.
Unlike the base MBL with its fixed rubber bumper, this MBLC variant uses a screw-adjustable pneumatic air cushion at both ends to smoothly decelerate the piston near stroke extremes. The riveted rolling-packed aluminum barrel keeps the body compact, while the 20um hard-chrome carbon-steel rod and heterogeneous two-way grease-retaining piston seal ensure low-friction longevity.

Drives the rapier head on a weaving loom, using the 300mm stroke and 402N force to thread weft yarn at high frequency while the adjustable cushion prevents sudden jerks that would snap fine fibers.
Actuates a pivot arm on a rotary filling machine to deflect 500ml containers, relying on the CA clevis to accommodate the arc of the moving product stream.
Pushes corrugated cartons onto a downstream packaging conveyor, using the -S magnet to confirm full extension before the sequencing valve fires.
If you need less force, the next size down is the 25mm bore, which yields 245N of push at 0.5 MPa. For heavier payloads, stepping up to the 40mm bore provides 628N. Choose this MBLC over the fixed-bumper MBL when your application runs at high speeds or cycles frequently, as the tunable cushion prevents end-cover impact. The 300mm stroke on a Ø12mm rod demands careful side-load management; use the CA pivot to absorb angular motion, add an external guide, or switch to an MBLD double-rod cylinder to prevent rod bending. Replacement match: 32mm bore, 300mm stroke, G1/8 port, PT thread, CA back cover, S magnet.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, it provides 402N push and 346N pull. At 0.7 MPa, it provides 563N push and 484N pull. The maximum theoretical force is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa, with a proof pressure of 1.5 MPa.
The cushion is a screw-tunable needle at both ends that traps exhaust air to decelerate the piston smoothly, protecting the end covers on fast moves. The -S denotes a built-in magnet for CMSG (reed) or DMSG/EMSG (electronic) sensor switches to detect rod position. The cushion only decelerates; it does not lock or hold position.
