Airtac MFC Cushioned Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MFC32X105SU
The AirTAC Airtac MFC Cushioned Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MFC32X105SU is a genuine double acting + cushion JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 105mm 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.

About the Airtac MFC Cushioned Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MFC32X105SU
Delivering 402.2 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, the AirTAC MFC32X105SU is a JIS-standard round-body mini cylinder built for double-acting operation. A variable air cushion at both ends replaces standard bumpers, letting you dial in the needle valve to absorb high-speed end-of-stroke shock. This riveted SUS304 stainless barrel and aluminium cover construction resists mild corrosion and washdown environments. Furthermore, for the same bore and stroke, this body is noticeably shorter than a standard ISO 6432 cylinder, saving valuable mounting length.
Equipped with a 1/4" port and an M10x1.25 male rod thread, this 32 mm bore unit includes a flat-end U back cover. The -S suffix denotes a built-in piston magnet, enabling seamless integration with CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed and electronic switches. Factoring in a 2:1 safety margin from the 0.5 MPa push rating, it provides a safe vertical lift of roughly 20.5 kg, making it highly effective for moderate load positioning.

Where the Airtac MFC Cushioned Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MFC32X105SU Is Used
Package Diverting
Handles moderate routing loads on a sorting line, using the adjustable cushion to silently stop the 105 mm stroke at high throughput speeds.
Component Seating
Pushes lightweight assemblies into fixtures with 402.2 N of force, relying on the needle-set deceleration to prevent impact damage on hard stops.
Vertical Lift Gates
Raises access doors or material trays up to 20.5 kg, capitalising on the flat-end U cover and stainless build for reliable workshop operation.
Is the Airtac MFC Cushioned Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MFC32X105SU the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 32 mm bore unit, step down to the MFC25 if your application only requires 245.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, or move up to the MFC40 for heavier payloads needing 628.3 N. The variable air cushion is essential when cycling at high speeds or moving substantial masses, as it decelerates the piston smoothly to protect the mechanics. Note that the cushion only slows the rod near stroke end; it does not function as a brake. Because a standard double-acting cylinder will drift and lose position on air loss or a centred valve, install an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve if you need to hold a suspended load. Mounting options include LB foot, FA flange, SDB pivot, and TC trunnion brackets.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT / G / NPT)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Back cover (CA/U/CM) & mount (LB/FA/SDB/TC)
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Do not dismantle the riveted front/back covers.
- check Use correct back cover (CA/U/CM) & mount (LB/FA/SDB/TC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac MFC Cushioned Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MFC32X105SU FAQ
This 32 mm bore double-acting cylinder features a 1/4" port and an M10x1.25 male rod thread. It generates 402.2 N push and 345.6 N pull at 0.5 MPa, increasing to 563 N push and 483.8 N pull at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical maximum force is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, the variable air cushion only decelerates the piston near the end of the stroke and acts purely as a shock absorber, never as a brake or lock. If air loss occurs or the valve is centred, the piston will drift. To maintain vertical position, you must add an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
