The AirTAC Airtac MF32-40 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MF40X60SCA 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.
Delivering 628.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting JIS-standard round-body mini cylinder handles heavy-duty positioning in tight spaces. Its SUS304 stainless-steel barrel and riveted aluminium covers resist mild corrosion and washdown environments. The body is deliberately shorter than an equivalent ISO 6432 cylinder, saving valuable mounting length without sacrificing the 128.1 kgf theoretical maximum output at 1.0 MPa.
The piston relies on a heterogeneous two-way seal that retains an oil film for long service life, while fixed TPU bumper pads and a front-cover anti-impact pad soften stroke-end impacts. Because it yields about 377 N of actual work at 0.5 MPa, you can expect it to safely lift roughly 32 kg vertically against gravity. The integrated -S magnet supports CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG position sensing.

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.
Clamps heavy steel blanks into a mechanical press using the 628.3 N push force, with the short 60 mm stroke ensuring a rapid high-speed clamping cycle.
Lowers loaded packaging pallets weighing up to 32 kg safely, relying on the fixed TPU bumper pads to absorb the impact energy at the bottom of the 60 mm stroke.
Swings a robust routing gate on a packaging conveyor via the CA pivot mount, using the integrated magnet to confirm gate position with DMSG sensors.
When sizing this 40 mm bore unit, step down to the MF32 if your task only requires 402.2 N of push at 0.5 MPa, as 40 mm is the largest available bore in the MF family. The 1/4" port and M14x1.5 male rod thread provide high flow for rapid 30-800 mm/s cycling. The CA rear pivot cover suits articulated rod-end loading, but a plain cylinder drifts when air is lost or a valve is centered; the bumpers only decelerate the end of stroke and will not hold a load. For vertical safety, install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
Quick checklist
This 40 mm bore double-acting cylinder features a 1/4" air 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, with a theoretical maximum output of 128.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The JIS-standard SUS304 stainless round body is physically shorter than an ISO 6432 cylinder for the same 40x60 dimensions, saving fixture space. The CA rear cover provides a pivot mounting point, and the integrated -S magnet allows direct mounting of CMSG or EMSG switches for position feedback.
