The AirTAC Airtac MF32-40 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MF40X350SU is a genuine double acting JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 350mm 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, the AirTAC MF40X350SU is a 40 mm bore double-acting JIS-standard round-body mini cylinder built for demanding tasks. Its SUS304 stainless steel barrel and riveted rolling-packed aluminium covers resist mild corrosion and washdown environments. The 350 mm stroke operates at 30-800 mm/s, utilizing a 1/4" port and an M14x1.5 male rod thread.
The piston relies on a heterogeneous two-way seal that retains an oil film for extended lifespan, while fixed TPU bumper pads and a front-cover anti-impact pad soften stroke-end impacts without offering adjustable cushioning. Because this SKU includes the -S magnet, it supports CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG position switches. Plan for roughly 377 N of actual work at 0.5 MPa, which means it can safely lift about 32 kg vertically with a 2:1 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.
Pushes heavy timber pallets sideways onto secondary packaging lines using its 628.3 N thrust at 0.5 MPa.
Drives small steel bearings into aluminium housings on an automated assembly carousel.
Lowers loaded logistics totes weighing up to 32 kg down a 350 mm vertical descent with steady control.
When sizing this 40 mm bore, stepping down to the MF32 yields 402.2 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, whereas the MF40 is the largest available option in this series, topping out at a theoretical 128.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa. If your application requires variable deceleration for high-speed cycles, consider the MFC variant instead of relying on the standard fixed bumpers here.
This configuration features a U flat-end back cover and includes the -S magnet for sensor compatibility. Remember that a standard cylinder drifts if air pressure drops or the valve is centred, as the bumpers only decelerate the stroke end rather than locking the load; install an external pilot check valve or rod lock if you need to hold a vertical position securely. At 350 mm, ensure your mounting arrangement—whether LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion—adequately supports the rod against side-load bending.
Quick checklist
The 40 mm bore features a 1/4" port and an M14x1.5 rod thread. It generates 628.3 N push and 527.8 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 879.6 N push and 738.9 N pull at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical maximum force of 128.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The JIS-standard round body is physically shorter than an ISO 6432 cylinder for the same 40 mm bore and 350 mm stroke, saving valuable mounting length. It features a U flat-end back cover, fixed TPU bumper pads for stroke-end deceleration, and the -S magnet allows direct mounting of CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors.
