The AirTAC Airtac MF32-40 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MF32X45SCA is a genuine double acting JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 45mm 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 MF32X45SCA is a JIS-standard round-body mini cylinder built for tight automation spaces. Its SUS304 stainless barrel and riveted aluminium covers resist mild corrosion, while the internal two-way seal retains an oil film for extended mechanical life. Because this JIS body is physically shorter than a comparable ISO 6432 cylinder of the same bore and stroke, it directly saves valuable mounting length in compact machinery.
This 32 mm bore, 45 mm stroke unit breathes through a 1/4" port and features a rear CA pivot cover. The integrated -S piston magnet enables CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position switches. For practical sizing, plan for about 241 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, which safely lifts roughly 20.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. Fixed TPU bumper pads soften the stroke-end impact without offering 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.
Uses the 402.2 N push force to maintain consistent yarn tension, while the CA pivot absorbs angular misalignment during high-speed loom operation.
Shorter JIS body length fits neatly between conveyor frames, swinging a divert gate for 20 kg cardboard cartons on a packaging line.
The 45 mm stroke extends a physical stop block to halt incoming pallets, relying on the SUS304 barrel to withstand dusty warehouse environments.
When sizing this 32 mm bore, compare it directly with its neighbours: the MF25 provides 245.3 N of push at 0.5 MPa, while the larger MF40 yields 628.3 N. If your fixture demands precise position holding on air loss, note that a standard cylinder drifts—the TPU pads only decelerate the end of travel and act purely as impact bumpers, never as a mechanical lock. You must add an external rod lock or pilot check valve for secure load holding.
The CA pivot back cover on this SKU is designed for clevis mounting. Because this is a short 45 mm stroke, side-load and rod-bending stress is minimal, but ensure the pivot alignment is true. The built-in -S magnet allows solid-state or reed sensors to track the piston, and the M10x1.25 male rod thread handles the 345.6 N pull load at 0.5 MPa.
Quick checklist
This 32 mm bore cylinder features a 1/4" air port and an M10x1.25 male rod thread. At 0.5 MPa it pushes with 402.2 N and pulls with 345.6 N. At 0.7 MPa the push is 563 N and pull is 483.8 N. The theoretical maximum force is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, it does not conform to ISO 6432 standards, though its JIS round-body design is intentionally shorter than an ISO 6432 cylinder to save space. It uses fixed TPU bumper pads for end-of-stroke deceleration rather than an adjustable air cushion. The rear CA pivot cover allows clevis mounting.
