Airtac MF32-40 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MF32X10U
The AirTAC Airtac MF32-40 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MF32X10U is a genuine double acting JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 10mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and a SUS304 stainless-steel barrel for mildly corrosive environments. For the same bore and stroke it is shorter than an ISO 6432 cylinder, saving mounting space.

About the Airtac MF32-40 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MF32X10U
Delivering 402.2 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting 32 mm bore mini cylinder is built for tight machinery spaces. Because the JIS-standard round body is physically shorter than an ISO 6432 cylinder of the same bore and stroke, it shaves down your overall mounting length. The SUS304 stainless steel barrel and riveted aluminium covers resist mild corrosion and washdown, while the piston's two-way seal retains an oil film for long service life.
With a 10 mm stroke and a U flat-end rear cover, it executes rapid, short linear movements. The fixed TPU bumper pads and front-cover anti-impact pad soften the stroke-end impact by decelerating the piston. Plan for roughly 241 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, which means it can safely lift about 20.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. This SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position switches.

Where the Airtac MF32-40 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MF32X10U Is Used
Short-Stroke Clamping
Ideal for locking a small workpiece in a CNC machining fixture, using its 10 mm stroke to secure the part with 402.2 N of force.
Flap Deflection
Executes rapid 10 mm tucks on a carton sealing line, where the compact JIS body saves valuable mounting space along the conveyor.
Ejector Pins
Provides a fast, short burst to push small plastic moulded components out of a die, utilising the fixed TPU bumpers to absorb the impact.
Is the Airtac MF32-40 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MF32X10U the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 32 mm bore, compare it directly with its neighbours: the MF25 provides 245.3 N of push at 0.5 MPa, while the MF40 steps up to 628.3 N. Choose the 32 mm when you need about 402.2 N of push force for a compact task. Since this specific model lacks the -S magnet, you cannot mount magnetic sensors; if your sequence requires position feedback, select the MF32X10S variant instead.
Keep in mind that a standard double-acting cylinder drifts when air is lost or the valve is centred. The TPU bumpers only decelerate the stroke end and do not function as a brake. If your application must hold a vertical load in place during an air failure, install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve. Mounting options include LB foot, FA flange, SDB pivot, and TC trunnion brackets.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT / G / NPT)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Back cover (CA/U/CM) & mount (LB/FA/SDB/TC)
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 Do not dismantle the riveted front/back covers.
- check Use correct back cover (CA/U/CM) & mount (LB/FA/SDB/TC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac MF32-40 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MF32X10U FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it pushes with 402.2 N and pulls with 345.6 N. At 0.7 MPa it pushes 563 N and pulls 483.8 N. The theoretical maximum force is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The air port size is 1/4 inch, and the male rod thread is M10x1.25.
No, this specific SKU does not include a magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. You would need the -S variant for position sensing. It features a SUS304 stainless barrel, a U flat-end rear cover, and is shorter than an ISO 6432 cylinder.
