The AirTAC Airtac MF32-40 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MF40X60CATC is a genuine double acting JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø40mm 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.
Generating 628.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting 40 mm bore mini cylinder is built around a SUS304 stainless barrel with riveted aluminium covers. Its JIS-standard round body is physically shorter than a comparable ISO 6432 unit, delivering a packaging advantage in tight machinery. The 1/4" port and M14x1.5 male rod thread handle robust airflow for rapid cycling.
The internal piston relies on a two-way oil-retaining seal, while fixed TPU bumper pads and a front-cover anti-impact pad absorb stroke-end shock. Plan for roughly 377 N of actual work at 0.5 MPa, which translates to lifting about 32 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. This specific configuration includes a CA pivot back cover and pairs with a TC trunnion mount, though the lack of a magnet means it cannot support CMSG or DMSG sensors.

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.
Kicks formed metal blanks out of progressive die stations using 628.3 N of push force, relying on the short JIS body to fit within tight press columns.
Swings a pivot arm to reroute dense cartons on a packaging line, where the CA rear pivot and TC trunnion handle the shifting load geometry.
Raises and lowers a heavy physical barrier to halt loaded pallets, utilizing the fixed TPU bumpers to soften the abrupt stops inherent to logistics conveyors.
When sizing this 40 mm bore, step down to the MF32 if your task requires only 402.2 N at 0.5 MPa, as 40 mm is the largest available MF diameter. Because this SKU lacks the -S magnet, position sensing is impossible without upgrading to an -S variant. The TC trunnion and CA rear pivot accommodate articulating loads, but for vertical applications remember the cylinder drifts if air pressure drops—integrate a pilot check valve or external rod lock to secure the payload. A 60 mm stroke keeps rod bending stress minimal even under lateral acceleration.
Quick checklist
This 40 mm bore cylinder features a 1/4" port and an M14x1.5 male rod thread. It generates 628.3 N push and 527.8 N pull at 0.5 MPa, increasing to 879.6 N push and 738.9 N pull at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical maximum force is 128.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, because this specific SKU lacks the internal magnet (-S), it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. You would need the -S variant for sensing. It features a CA pivot back cover, uses a TC trunnion mount, and its JIS-standard body is shorter than an ISO 6432 cylinder.
