About the Airtac MBLC Aluminum Alloy Mini Air Cylinder MBLC32X350CA
The AirTAC MBLC32X350CA is a double-acting aluminum mini cylinder with a 32mm bore and 350mm stroke. It generates 402N of push force and 346N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, making it well-suited for mid-range linear actuation over extended distances. Unlike the base MBL, this variant uses a screw-adjustable pneumatic cushion at both ends to decelerate the piston smoothly near stroke limits, cutting impact and vibration on faster moves.
This SKU features a CA pivot clevis back cover that swings on a pin to accommodate arcing angular loads, a critical requirement for a 350mm stroke where rigid mounting could induce side-load stress. The riveted rolling-packed aluminum barrel keeps the body compact, while the 20 um hard-chrome plating on the carbon-steel rod provides wear resistance. Note that this specific configuration lacks a built-in magnet, so it cannot support CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG electronic position sensing.

Where the Airtac MBLC Aluminum Alloy Mini Air Cylinder MBLC32X350CA Is Used
Packaging Diverter Arm
Drives a swinging diverter gate on a packaging conveyor, using the CA pivot clevis to accommodate the arc of the arm while the air cushion absorbs the 402N impact at the end of the 350mm travel.
Textile Guide Mechanism
Actuates a fabric tensioning guide over a 350mm path, where the adjustable pneumatic cushion prevents sudden jerks that would tear delicate textile webs during high-frequency cycling.
Pallet Push-Off Assembly
Pushes light cardboard cartons off an accumulation line, relying on the compact riveted aluminum body to fit within tight conveyor frame clearances while delivering 346N of pull force on retraction.
Is the Airtac MBLC Aluminum Alloy Mini Air Cylinder MBLC32X350CA the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 32mm bore when you need 402N of push force at 0.5 MPa over a long 350mm travel. If your load is lighter, stepping down to the 25mm bore yields 245N push force; if you need more power, the 40mm bore provides 628N. The adjustable air cushion is preferred over the fixed rubber bumper of the standard MBL when cycling faster or moving heavier masses at high frequency. Keep in mind the cushion only decelerates near the ends—it is not a load lock or brake, so the rod will drift if air is lost.
For a 350mm stroke, the 12mm rod has limited tolerance for side-load and bending. The CA pivot clevis on this unit helps by allowing angular self-alignment, but for rigid setups you should add an external guide or consider an MBLD double-rod cylinder to prevent binding. Replacement parts must match the G1/8 port, M10x1.25 rod thread, PT thread form, and CA back cover.
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 MBLC32X350CA FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, the MBLC32X350CA delivers 402N of push force and 346N of pull force. At 0.7 MPa, push increases to 563N. The maximum theoretical force is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, this specific SKU lacks the built-in -S magnet, so it cannot support CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensor switches. You would need an MBLC32X350S variant (with or without the CA clevis) to use electronic or reed position sensing.
