The AirTAC Airtac MF32-40 Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MF40X60SUTC 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 tasks within tight fixtures. The SUS304 stainless steel barrel and riveted aluminium covers resist mild corrosion and washdown, while the two-way piston seal retains an oil film for extended lifespan. Because the MF body is shorter than a comparable ISO 6432 cylinder for the same 40 mm bore and 60 mm stroke, it provides a distinct packaging advantage.
Equipped with a 1/4" port and an M14x1.5 male rod thread, the unit features fixed TPU bumper pads and a front-cover anti-impact pad that soften stroke-end impact without offering adjustable cushioning. Plan for roughly 377 N of actual work at 0.5 MPa, which translates to safely lifting about 32 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. The included -S magnet enables CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches for 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.
Drives small bronze bushings into aluminum housings on an automated assembly line using its 628.3 N push capacity at 0.5 MPa.
Actuates a heavy diverting gate on a packaging conveyor, where the compact JIS body length leaves room for adjacent guide rails.
Pushes stacked cardboard blanks out of a vacuum gripper, relying on the SUS304 barrel to withstand humid corrugated board environments.
When sizing this 40 mm bore, step down to the MF32 if your application only requires 402.2 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, as the MF40 is the largest available bore in this series. If air pressure drops or the valve is centred, the piston will drift since the TPU pads only decelerate the stroke end rather than locking the rod; integrate a pilot-operated check valve or external rod lock to sustain a suspended load. This specific SKU includes a U flat-end back cover and a TC trunnion mount, which accommodates pivoting movements along with the -S magnet for sensors.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 628.3 N and pulls 527.8 N. At 0.7 MPa it pushes 879.6 N and pulls 738.9 N. The theoretical maximum force is 128.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The air port is 1/4".
No, the piston drifts on air loss; use a pilot check valve or rod lock to hold loads. It uses fixed TPU bumper pads to decelerate, not an adjustable cushion. The -S magnet allows CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors.
