The AirTAC Airtac MF32-40 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MF32X700CM is a genuine double acting JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 700mm 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. Because its SUS304 stainless steel barrel and riveted aluminium covers form a compact structure, the overall body is shorter than an ISO 6432 cylinder for the same 32 mm bore and 700 mm stroke. This 700 mm stroke is a non-standard, made-to-order length that extends past the 500 mm standard maximum.
The cylinder body uses a rolling-packed structure with fixed TPU bumper pads and a front-cover anti-impact pad to soften stroke-end impact. It breathes through a 1/4 inch port and features a CM round-end rear cover. For practical sizing, plan for roughly 241 N of actual work at 0.5 MPa, which means it can lift about 20.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin.

Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a 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.
Hoists 20 kg jigs in automated assembly lines using the 402.2 N push force, relying on external guidance to prevent rod bending over the 700 mm extension.
Pushes heavy cardboard cartons across a wide packaging conveyor where the shorter JIS body prevents interference with adjacent machinery.
Opens and closes access doors in food processing zones, utilising the SUS304 stainless barrel to resist mild corrosion and frequent washdowns.
When sizing this 32 mm bore, compare it directly against its neighbours: the MF25 yields 245.3 N at 0.5 MPa, while the MF40 provides 628.3 N. Choose this model when your payload sits in that middle force band. Because this specific SKU lacks the S magnet, it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position switches; add the -S variant if you require electronic sensing.
At a 700 mm extension, the Ø12 mm rod is highly susceptible to side-loading and bending forces, so ensure your mounting guides absorb any lateral weight. Furthermore, standard bumpers only decelerate the piston near the end of travel; they will not brake or hold a suspended load if air pressure drops. To prevent drifting on air loss, integrate an external pilot-operated check valve or a dedicated rod lock.
Quick checklist
This 32 mm bore double-acting cylinder uses a 1/4 inch port. It generates 402.2 N push and 345.6 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 563 N push and 483.8 N pull at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical maximum of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, this specific SKU lacks a piston magnet and cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. You would need the MF32X700CM-S variant for sensing. It features a CM round-end cover and fixed TPU bumper pads that decelerate the stroke end but do not act as an adjustable air cushion.
