The AirTAC Airtac MF32-40 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MF32X25SCATC is a genuine double acting JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 25mm 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 32 mm bore JIS-standard round-body mini cylinder features a SUS304 stainless barrel with riveted aluminium covers that shrinks overall mounting length compared to an equivalent ISO 6432 unit. The built-in piston magnet allows direct mounting of CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches for position sensing, while fixed TPU bumper pads soften end-of-stroke impact without offering adjustable cushioning.
Equipped with a 1/4" port and a 12 mm rod, the compact 25 mm stroke suits tight transfer assemblies. The heterogeneous two-way seal retains an oil film for extended cycle life. For practical sizing, plan for roughly 241 N of usable work at 0.5 MPa, which translates to lifting about 20.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 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.
Executes short 25 mm sorting strokes on packaging lines, using the 402.2 N push output to nudge lightweight cardboard cartons onto secondary chutes.
Secures aluminium extrusions in CNC machining fixtures where the compact JIS body length prevents interference with multi-axis spindle paths.
Raises a pneumatic stop pin in automated storage systems to halt incoming pallets, relying on the TC trunnion to absorb angular rod stresses.
When sizing this 32 mm bore, dropping down to an MF25 yields 245.3 N at 0.5 MPa, whereas stepping up to an MF40 provides 628.3 N, letting you match the exact payload. This specific SKU includes a CA pivot back cover and a TC trunnion mounting accessory for articulated rod-end loads.
Because a standard double-acting cylinder vents and drifts when air pressure drops or the valve centers, you must add an external pilot-operated check valve or a dedicated rod lock to suspend a vertical load safely. The included -S magnet is essential if your control system requires reed or electronic sensor feedback.
Quick checklist
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, increasing to 563 N push and 483.8 N pull at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical maximum force of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The SUS304 stainless barrel with riveted aluminium covers creates a JIS-standard body that is physically shorter than a comparable ISO 6432 cylinder, saving valuable mounting space. The rear CA pivot combined with the TC trunnion accessory accommodates non-linear movement, while fixed TPU bumpers absorb stroke-end impacts without acting as an adjustable air cushion.
