Airtac MF32-40 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MF32X15CA
The AirTAC Airtac MF32-40 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MF32X15CA is a genuine double acting JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 15mm 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 MF32X15CA
Generating 402.2 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting 32 mm bore mini cylinder is built around a SUS304 stainless barrel with riveted aluminium covers. The rolling-packed structure resists mild corrosion and washdown, while the piston's two-way seal retains an oil film for long service life. A 1/4" port and M10x1.25 male rod thread handle the air and mounting loads.
With its 15 mm stroke and CA pivot back cover, the JIS-standard round body is noticeably shorter than an equivalent ISO 6432 unit, saving valuable mounting length in tight fixtures. Fixed TPU bumper pads and a front-cover anti-impact pad soften the stroke-end impact. Plan for about 241 N of actual work at 0.5 MPa, which means it can safely lift a 20.5 kg vertical load with a 2:1 safety margin.

Where the Airtac MF32-40 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MF32X15CA Is Used
Clamping Housings
Secures aluminium die-cast parts during CNC machining, using the 402.2 N thrust to hold firmly without distorting the workpiece.
Short Stroke Diversion
Pivots via the CA mount to deflect packages on a sorting line, where the compact 15 mm stroke and shorter JIS body fit between tight rollers.
Film Sealing Press
Brings a heated jaw down onto packaging film, relying on the fixed TPU bumper pads to soften the impact at the end of the rapid 15 mm travel.
Is the Airtac MF32-40 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MF32X15CA the Right Cylinder?
If 245.3 N from the MF25 is insufficient, this 32 mm bore steps up the force, while the MF40 provides a heavier 628.3 N if your fixture needs more thrust at 0.5 MPa. The CA rear pivot is ideal for angular movement, but remember a plain cylinder drifts if air is lost or the valve is centred; use a pilot check valve or external rod lock to hold a suspended load. Because this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG or EMSG position switches. The very short 15 mm stroke keeps rod bending stress minimal, but ensure the pivot pins are aligned to prevent side-load wear.
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 MF32X15CA FAQ
This 32 mm bore cylinder features a 1/4" port and an M10x1.25 male rod thread. It generates 402.2 N push and 345.6 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 563 N push and 483.8 N pull at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical maximum of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, this specific SKU does not include a magnet, so CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches cannot be used. You would need the -S variant for sensing. The unit uses fixed TPU bumper pads for deceleration rather than an adjustable cushion, and its JIS round-body design is shorter than an ISO 6432 cylinder.
