The AirTAC Airtac MF32-40 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MF32X200CA is a genuine double acting JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 200mm 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 built for demanding mid-range tasks. 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 extended mechanical life. Because the MF body is shorter than an ISO 6432 cylinder for the same 32 mm bore and 200 mm stroke, it saves valuable mounting length in tight fixtures.
This specific configuration features a CA pivot back cover for articulated rear mounting and uses a 1/4 inch port with an M10x1.25 male rod thread. Fixed TPU bumper pads and a front-cover anti-impact pad soften the stroke-end impact by decelerating the piston. Plan for roughly 241 N of actual work at 0.5 MPa, which means it can safely lift about 20.5 kg vertically against gravity.

Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a safety margin.

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.
Swings a routing flap on a packaging conveyor using the CA pivot mount, relying on the 402.2 N thrust at 0.5 MPa to push loaded pallets smoothly onto a secondary track.
Adjusts the tension roller position on a weaving machine, where the compact JIS body length fits easily within crowded frame geometry and the SUS304 barrel handles humid environments.
Folds heavy corrugated cardboard flaps on an automated packing line, using the 200 mm stroke to clear the box width before the fixed TPU bumpers absorb the end-of-travel impact.
When sizing this 32 mm bore unit, the smaller MF25 provides 245.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, while the larger MF40 steps up to 628.3 N, giving you clear room to adjust if your air supply or payload changes. The 200 mm stroke is well within the 500 mm standard limit, but at this extension you must carefully manage side loading to prevent rod bending and premature seal wear.
Note that this SKU lacks the -S magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position switches; choose the -S variant if you require electronic sensing. Furthermore, air pressure alone will not maintain its position if the valve is centred or supply is lost, as the piston will drift and the bumpers only decelerate near the stroke end. To secure a vertical load, integrate an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve into your circuit.
Quick checklist
This 32 mm bore double-acting cylinder uses a 1/4 inch 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 force of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
This specific SKU does not have the -S magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. The CA back cover provides a rear pivot point for articulated mounting. Its fixed TPU bumper pads decelerate the stroke end but do not function as an adjustable air cushion like the MFC variant.
