Airtac MBLD Dual Axis Type Mini Cylinder MBLD32X50S
The AirTAC Airtac MBLD Dual Axis Type Mini Cylinder MBLD32X50S is a genuine double-acting double-rod aluminum-barrel mini cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 50mm stroke. A rod exits both end covers, so extend and retract force are EQUAL — about 346 N each way at 0.5 MPa. Fixed rubber bumper.

About the Airtac MBLD Dual Axis Type Mini Cylinder MBLD32X50S
The AirTAC MBLD32X50S is a double-acting, double-rod aluminum mini cylinder engineered for equal force in both directions, delivering 346 N at 0.5 MPa. A single piston carries a Ø12 mm hard-chrome plated carbon-steel rod out of both end covers. The -S code in this SKU indicates a built-in magnet, enabling position detection via AirTAC CMSG (reed), DMSG, or EMSG (solid-state) sensor switches. The default PT thread form matches the G1/8 porting standard for this 32 mm bore.
Because a rod occupies both sides of the piston, the annulus area is identical on extend and retract, ensuring perfectly balanced speed and thrust. The 50 mm stroke is optimal for compact indexing and ejection. Overall length equals A plus twice the stroke, requiring rear-rod clearance to prevent collision. The riveted rolling-packed aluminum barrel and grease-retaining piston seal ensure reliable service in tight spaces.
The fixed rubber bumper softens end-of-stroke impact, though it does not lock the position—live air is required to hold a load. For applications needing adjustable end-cushioning, the MBLCD variant is the correct choice. Mounting is limited to Basic, FA flange, or LB foot brackets, as the twin-rod design precludes back-cover or SDB pivot options.

|---|---|
| Series | MBL aluminum-barrel mini round cylinder (double rod) |
| Bore size | Ø32 mm |
| Stroke | 50 mm |
| Acting type | Double acting, double rod |
| Port size | G1/8 |
| Rod thread | M10×1.25 |
| Fluid | Air (filtered by 40µm element) |
|---|---|
| Operating pressure | 0.15 – 1.0 MPa |
| Proof pressure | 1.5 MPa |
| Temperature | -20 to +70 °C |
| Speed range | 30 – 800 mm/s |
| Cushion | Fixed rubber bumper |
| Max standard stroke | Up to 500 mm |
Double-rod overall length = A + 2 × stroke — leave clearance for the rear rod. MBLD/MBLCD mounting is Basic / FA / LB only (no SDB, no back-cover code). Thread options: PT / G / NPT.
Output Force (Ø32mm, equal both ways)
| Pressure | Extend & retract force |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 346 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 484 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 70 kgf |
A rod on both piston faces makes the annulus area equal, so extend and retract force (and speed) are the same. Actual usable force is lower due to friction.

Where the Airtac MBLD Dual Axis Type Mini Cylinder MBLD32X50S Is Used
PCB Depaneling Saw
Drives a circular blade forward and back with 346 N of equal both-way force, using the rear rod to push a dust extraction nozzle simultaneously.
Connector Pick-and-Place
Picks IC connectors from a tape reel; the twin-rod design prevents chassis rotation during the 50 mm transfer to the test socket.
Label Applicator Cam
Uses the protruding rear rod to trip a mechanical flag, confirming the 50 mm stroke completed before the label winder advances.
Is the Airtac MBLD Dual Axis Type Mini Cylinder MBLD32X50S the Right Cylinder?
Stepping down to the 25 mm bore reduces the both-way output to 206 N at 0.5 MPa, suitable for lighter pick-and-place arms. Moving up to the 40 mm bore increases the equal both-way force to 528 N at 0.5 MPa for heavier fixture clamping. The MBLD32X50S is ideal when you need 346 N of balanced thrust and a rear rod for a cam or position flag. If your mechanism only requires a single output rod, the standard MBL single-rod cylinder saves rear clearance. Replacement matches require 32 mm bore, 50 mm stroke, G1/8 port, PT thread, and the -S magnet.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Equal force both ways at your pressure
- ✓ Rear-rod clearance (length = A + 2 × stroke)
- ✓ Mounting: Basic / FA / LB only
- ✓ Magnet (S) for sensors?
- ✓ Side load — add a guide on long strokes
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Leave clearance for the rear rod (length = A + 2 × stroke).
- check Avoid side load; add an external guide on long strokes.
- check Mounting: Basic / FA flange / LB foot (no SDB, no back-cover code).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac MBLD Dual Axis Type Mini Cylinder MBLD32X50S FAQ
The double-rod design provides equal force both ways: 346 N at 0.5 MPa, 484 N at 0.7 MPa, and a maximum theoretical 71 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
A rod exits both ends, creating equal annulus areas for identical extend and retract speeds. The rear rod can mount a cam or position flag, but MBLD lacks back-cover or SDB mounting options.
