The AirTAC Airtac MF32-40 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MF32X350CA is a genuine double acting JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 350mm 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.
Generating 402.2 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting JIS-standard round-body mini cylinder handles substantial work within a compact footprint. The SUS304 stainless steel barrel and riveted rolling-packed aluminium covers resist mild corrosion and washdown environments, while the two-way piston seal retains an oil film for prolonged operational life. A 1/4" port and M10x1.25 male rod thread accommodate robust pneumatic flow and mounting.
Because the MF body is physically shorter than a comparable ISO 6432 cylinder for the same 32 mm bore and 350 mm stroke, it saves valuable mounting length in tight machinery. Plan for a safe working load of roughly 241 N, which allows you to lift 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, though they decelerate rather than provide adjustable cushioning.

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 sorting gate on a packaging line, using the CA pivot mount to absorb side-play while redirecting cartons weighing up to 20 kg.
Maintains consistent fabric tension during weaving, leveraging the 402.2 N push force to keep heavy yarn beams properly aligned.
Advances corrugated layers onto a wooden pallet, where the shorter JIS body preserves critical machine bay length over the 350 mm extension.
When sizing this 32 mm bore unit, the smaller MF25 yields 245.3 N of push at 0.5 MPa, whereas stepping up to the MF40 provides 628.3 N. This model strikes a balance for medium-force duties. The CA pivot back cover is specifically designed for articulated clevis mounting, which helps accommodate slight misalignments over the 350 mm stroke. Without the -S suffix, this SKU lacks a magnet and cannot host CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors; you would need the -S variant for position detection.
For vertical or suspended loads, remember that a standard cylinder drifts when air is removed or a valve centres—the fixed bumpers only soften the end of travel and act purely as decelerators, never as a locking mechanism. To prevent dropping a load, integrate an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve into your pneumatic circuit.
Quick checklist
This 32 mm bore cylinder features a 1/4" port and generates 402.2 N push and 345.6 N pull at 0.5 MPa. At 0.7 MPa, it delivers 563 N push and 483.8 N pull. The theoretical maximum force is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, this specific SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches; you must specify the -S variant for sensing. It uses fixed TPU bumper pads to decelerate at stroke end, not an adjustable air cushion. For adjustable cushioning, look at the MFC variant.
