The AirTAC Airtac MF32-40 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MF32X60SCA is a genuine double acting JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 60mm 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 integrates a SUS304 stainless barrel with riveted aluminium covers to handle mild washdowns. The built-in piston magnet allows direct mounting of CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches for position sensing, while the 1/4" port feeds the chamber efficiently. Its heterogeneous two-way seal retains an oil film for extended operational life.
Because the riveted rolling-packed structure is physically shorter than an ISO 6432 cylinder of the same bore and stroke, it saves valuable mounting length in tight fixtures. Fixed TPU bumper pads and a front-cover anti-impact pad soften the stroke-end impact without offering adjustable cushioning. 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.

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 CA pivot back cover to swing a 20 kg machining fixture into place, leveraging the 402.2 N push force to secure the part during milling.
Actuates a routing flap on a packaging line where the compact JIS body length is required to fit between parallel conveyor belts.
Deploys a physical stop block for incoming pallets, relying on the fixed TPU bumper pads to absorb the kinetic energy of the arriving load.
When sizing this 32 mm bore, stepping down to the MF25 yields 245.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, whereas moving up to the MF40 provides 628.3 N. The 60 mm stroke keeps the rod side-load risk low, but always verify your guiding geometry to prevent premature seal wear. This specific SKU includes the -S magnet for electronic or reed sensors and features a CA pivot back cover for articulating rod-end alignment.
Remember that a standard double-acting cylinder will drift and drop its payload if air pressure is lost or the directional valve is centred. The TPU bumpers only decelerate the piston near the end of the stroke and do not act as a braking mechanism. If your application requires strict position holding, you must add an external pilot-operated check valve or a dedicated rod lock.
Quick checklist
This 32 mm bore cylinder features a 1/4" air port and an M10x1.25 male rod thread. It generates 402.2 N of push force and 345.6 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa. At 0.7 MPa, the push increases to 563 N and the pull to 483.8 N. The theoretical maximum force is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, the MF is a JIS-standard round-body cylinder that is physically shorter than an ISO 6432 unit, so ISO brackets will not fit. Additionally, this model uses fixed TPU bumper pads to decelerate the stroke end rather than an adjustable air cushion. For adjustable cushioning, look at the MFC variant.
