The AirTAC Airtac MF32-40 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MF40X200CA is a genuine double acting JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 200mm 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 628.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting JIS-standard round-body mini cylinder handles heavy-duty automation tasks within a compact footprint. Because its SUS304 stainless barrel and riveted aluminium covers form a shorter body than an equivalent ISO 6432 unit, you save valuable mounting length on your machinery. The internal piston relies on a heterogeneous two-way seal that retains an oil film for prolonged lifespan, while fixed TPU bumper pads and a front-cover anti-impact pad absorb end-of-stroke shocks.
Featuring a 40 mm bore, a 16 mm piston rod, and a 1/4" air port, the unit is built for robust actuation. Plan for roughly 377 N of actual work at 0.5 MPa to maintain a safe 60 percent margin, which translates to lifting about 32 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety factor. This specific configuration includes a CA pivot back cover for articulated mounting, and because it lacks the -S suffix, it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG magnetic switches.

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.
Swings a heavy routing gate on a packaging line, using the 628.3 N thrust to positively shift loaded pallets onto secondary transfer tracks.
Drives a 16 mm rod downward to seat dowel pins into steel housings, relying on the fixed TPU bumper pads to cushion the 200 mm downward stroke.
Employs the CA pivot back cover to lift 30 kg component crates vertically from a storage rack, staying safely within the 32 kg computed lift margin.
When sizing this 40 mm bore actuator, compare its 628.3 N push force at 0.5 MPa against the smaller MF32, which provides 402.2 N; stepping up to the MF40 is necessary when your fixture demands higher thrust. As 40 mm is the largest available bore in the MF series, exceeding this capacity requires a different cylinder family entirely. For your 200 mm stroke, ensure the load is guided to prevent rod bending under side loads.
The CA pivot back cover suits articulated rod-end connections, and you can pair the body with LB foot, FA flange, SDB pivot, or TC trunnion brackets. Remember that a standard double-acting cylinder drifts when air is removed or the valve is centred; the TPU bumpers only decelerate the stroke end and will not lock the load, so install an external rod lock or pilot check valve if position holding is required.
Quick checklist
This 40 mm bore cylinder features a 1/4" air port and a 16 mm rod with an M14x1.5 male thread. At 0.5 MPa it provides 628.3 N push and 527.8 N pull; at 0.7 MPa it provides 879.6 N push and 738.9 N pull. The theoretical maximum force is 128.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Because this SKU lacks the -S suffix, it has no internal magnet and cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. The CA back cover provides a rear pivot point for clevis mounting, and the riveted SUS304 stainless build is shorter than an ISO 6432 cylinder, saving space while resisting mild washdown.
