Airtac MF32-40 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MF32X35CA
The AirTAC Airtac MF32-40 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MF32X35CA is a genuine double acting JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 35mm 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 MF32X35CA
Generating 402.2 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting JIS-standard round-body mini cylinder features a SUS304 stainless barrel with riveted aluminium covers. Its rolling-packed structure shrinks the overall body length compared to an ISO 6432 unit of the same 32 mm bore and 35 mm stroke, saving valuable space in tight machinery. The 1/4 inch port feeds the chamber efficiently.
Because the piston uses a heterogeneous two-way seal with an oil-reservoir function, it maintains a lubricating film for a long service life. Fixed TPU bumper pads and a front-cover anti-impact pad absorb stroke-end shocks. 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.

Where the Airtac MF32-40 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MF32X35CA Is Used
Pivot Arm Actuation
Leverages the built-in CA rear pivot to swing a 20 kg clamping arm, using the 35 mm stroke to secure sheet metal parts during robotic welding.
Package Diverter Gate
Pushes medium-weight cartons off a sorting line with 402.2 N of thrust at 0.5 MPa, fitting neatly into the tight transfer gap between conveyor belts.
Textile Loom Tensioner
Modulates yarn tension on a weaving machine, where the SUS304 stainless barrel resists humid operating conditions and lint buildup.
Is the Airtac MF32-40 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MF32X35CA the Right Cylinder?
Sitting between the MF25 (245.3 N at 0.5 MPa) and the MF40 (628.3 N at 0.5 MPa), this 32 mm bore strikes a balance for medium-force tasks. The CA pivot back cover is ideal for articulating rod-end loads, but remember that a plain cylinder drifts when air is lost or the valve is centred; the bumpers only decelerate the stroke end and act as neither a brake nor a lock. To suspend a load safely, install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
This specific SKU lacks the -S magnet, meaning it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG magnetic switches for position sensing. If your application requires end-of-stroke detection, select the -S variant instead. For high-cycle speeds where the fixed TPU pads are insufficient, consider the MFC variant with adjustable air cushions.
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 MF32X35CA FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 402.2 N and pulls 345.6 N. At 0.7 MPa it pushes 563 N and pulls 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, this SKU lacks the internal magnet so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. You must choose the -S variant for position sensing. It features a CA pivot back cover and is shorter than an ISO 6432 cylinder for the same bore and stroke.
