The AirTAC Airtac MF32-40 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MF32X130SCA is a genuine double acting JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 130mm 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.
Delivering 402.2 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting JIS-standard round-body mini cylinder is engineered for tight machinery layouts. Its SUS304 stainless steel barrel and riveted aluminium covers resist mild corrosion and washdown, while the internal two-way seal retains an oil film for long service life. Because the MF body is shorter than an ISO 6432 cylinder for the same 32 mm bore and 130 mm stroke, it trims valuable mounting length without sacrificing power.
The unit includes a built-in piston magnet (-S) for position sensing and features a CA rear pivot cover. Fixed TPU bumper pads and a front-cover anti-impact pad soften stroke-end impacts, though they decelerate rather than provide adjustable cushioning. For practical actuation, plan for roughly 241 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, which translates to safely lifting about 20.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. The 1/4" port and 30-800 mm/s speed range handle demanding cycles.

Securing aluminium extrusions during CNC machining operations using the 402.2 N push force at 0.5 MPa.
Pushing corrugated cartons onto secondary packaging lines where the shorter JIS body fits within tight guide rails.
Raising lightweight access doors or safety guards, safely lifting parts up to 20.5 kg with a 2:1 safety margin.
When sizing this 32 mm bore, the smaller MF25 yields 245.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, whereas stepping up to the MF40 provides 628.3 N. This makes the MF32X130SCA the middle ground for medium-force tooling. The integrated magnet allows direct mounting of CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors. To utilize the CA back cover, pair it with a matching rear clevis or pivot pin for angular load alignment.
Because it is a standard double-acting cylinder, the piston will drift if air pressure drops or the valve is centred; the TPU bumpers only soften the end of stroke and do not function as a locking brake. To suspend a load safely mid-stroke, incorporate an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve into your pneumatic circuit. At 130 mm, verify side loading to prevent rod bending.
Quick checklist
This 32 mm bore cylinder features a 1/4" port and an M10x1.25 male rod thread. At 0.5 MPa it pushes with 402.2 N and pulls with 345.6 N. At 0.7 MPa, push increases to 563 N and pull to 483.8 N. The theoretical maximum force is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
It does not conform to ISO 6432 standards, although its JIS round-body design is deliberately shorter than an ISO 6432 cylinder for the same stroke, saving space. For position detection, the included -S magnet works with CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. The CA back cover provides a rear pivot mount.
