The AirTAC Airtac MF32-40 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MF32X175SCM is a genuine double acting JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 175mm 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, the AirTAC MF32X175SCM is a double-acting JIS-standard round-body mini cylinder built around a SUS304 stainless steel barrel. The 32 mm bore uses a 1/4 inch port and an M10x1.25 male rod thread. Because this riveted rolling-packed design is physically shorter than an ISO 6432 cylinder for the same 175 mm stroke, it drops neatly into tight machinery frames. The aluminium covers and stainless tube resist mild corrosion and washdown, while the piston's two-way seal retains an oil film for long service life.
For practical sizing, plan for roughly 241 N of actual work at 0.5 MPa, which translates to lifting about 20.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. Fixed TPU bumper pads and a front-cover anti-impact pad soften the stroke-end impact by decelerating the piston. This specific SKU includes a built-in magnet for position sensing and features a CM round-end rear cover.

MF-family variants: MF / MFC (double acting ±cushion), MSF / MTF (single acting push / pull), MFD / MFCD (double rod ±cushion), MFJ / MFCJ (adjustable stroke ±cushion). Back covers CA / U / CM. Mounting LB / FA / SDB / TC.
Pushes cartons onto secondary packaging lines using 402.2 N of thrust, where the shorter JIS body keeps the conveyor frame clear.
Secures aluminium extrusions during CNC milling, using the roughly 241 N safe working load to hold parts against cutting forces.
Raises lightweight tote bins weighing up to 20.5 kg in sorting hubs, relying on the CM round-end cover for pivot mounting.
When sizing this 32 mm bore, the adjacent MF25 provides 245.3 N of push at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to the MF40 yields 628.3 N. If your air supply drops or the valve centres, the piston will drift because the bumper pads only decelerate the end of travel rather than locking the rod. To hold a suspended load securely, fit an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve. The integrated magnet allows CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches to track position. Mounting options include LB foot, FA flange, SDB pivot, and TC trunnion, complementing the CM round-end back cover. At 175 mm, ensure your guiding structure handles any side-load to prevent rod bending.
Quick checklist
This 32 mm bore double-acting cylinder pushes with 402.2 N and pulls with 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa. At 0.7 MPa, push is 563 N and pull is 483.8 N. The theoretical maximum force is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It uses a 1/4 inch air port and an M10x1.25 male rod thread.
No, the base MF relies on fixed TPU bumper pads that decelerate the stroke end but do not offer adjustable cushioning. For variable cushioning, look at the MFC variant. Additionally, this MF32X175SCM features a SUS304 stainless barrel that is shorter than an ISO 6432 cylinder, and it includes a magnet for CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors.
