The AirTAC Airtac MF32-40 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MF32X700SCA 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.
Delivering 402.2 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting 32 mm bore AirTAC mini cylinder handles demanding actuation tasks. Because the stroke is 700 mm, it is manufactured as a non-standard, made-to-order unit exceeding the 500 mm standard maximum. For the same bore and stroke, the JIS-standard riveted SUS304 stainless round body is physically shorter than an ISO 6432 cylinder, yielding a real packaging advantage in tight machinery. The aluminium covers are joined to the barrel via a rolling-packed structure, and a two-way oil-retaining piston seal ensures long-term lubrication.
At 0.5 MPa you can plan for roughly 241 N of actual work output, which translates to lifting about 20.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. Fixed TPU bumper pads and a front-cover anti-impact pad soften the end-of-stroke impact, though they decelerate rather than provide adjustable cushioning. This specific SKU includes a piston magnet for position sensing and features a CA rear pivot cover. Air connects via a 1/4" port, and the 12 mm rod uses an M10x1.25 male thread.

Pushes heavy cartons across a wide sorting conveyor using its 700 mm travel, relying on the 402.2 N push force at 0.5 MPa to overcome side friction.
Ejects packaged goods from the top tier of a palletizing station, where the compact JIS body saves vertical mounting space compared to standard ISO units.
Shifts heavy textile beams laterally between processing stages, using the CA pivot mount to accommodate slight angular misalignment during the 700 mm extension.
When sizing this actuator, note that stepping down to the MF25 bore drops the 0.5 MPa push force to 245.3 N, while stepping up to the MF40 bore increases it to 628.3 N. This 32 mm model strikes a strong middle ground for medium-duty handling. Because the 700 mm stroke is quite long, be mindful of rod bending under heavy side loads and ensure adequate guiding along the travel path.
The integrated magnet (-S) directly supports CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG switches for end-of-stroke detection. Remember that a standard double-acting cylinder will drift and drop its load if air pressure is lost or the valve is centred; the bumpers only soften the end stops and act as no brake. To suspend a load safely mid-stroke, fit an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
Quick checklist
This 32 mm bore cylinder features a 1/4" air port and an M10x1.25 male rod thread. The thrust output is 402.2 N push and 345.6 N pull at 0.5 MPa, increasing to 563 N push and 483.8 N pull at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical maximum force is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
This model includes a magnet for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches, but it uses fixed TPU bumper pads that decelerate the stroke end rather than an adjustable air cushion (for adjustable cushioning, look at the MFC variant). Additionally, the 700 mm stroke is a non-standard made-to-order length exceeding the 500 mm standard maximum.
