The AirTAC Airtac MFC Cushioned Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MFC32X110SCA is a genuine double acting + cushion JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 110mm 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 402.2 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting 32 mm bore mini cylinder relies on a needle-set variable air cushion at both ends to soak up high-speed end-of-stroke shock. The riveted SUS304 stainless barrel and aluminium covers resist mild corrosion and washdown, while the built-in piston magnet enables position sensing. For the same bore and stroke, the JIS-standard round body is noticeably shorter than an ISO 6432 cylinder, saving valuable mounting length.
Equipped with a CA rear pivot cover and a 1/4" port, the unit pushes 563 N and pulls 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa. Based on the 0.5 MPa push rating, it handles a safe working load of roughly 241 N and lifts about 20.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. The front cover carries a fixed anti-impact pad, complementing the adjustable cushioning across the 110 mm stroke.

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.
Transfers heavier cartons at 800 mm/s on a packing line, using the variable air cushion to prevent harsh end-of-stroke impacts.
Applies a steady 402.2 N push at 0.5 MPa to seat small bearings, relying on the 110 mm stroke and fixed anti-impact pad.
Raises 20 kg access flaps with a 2:1 safety margin, pivoting smoothly on the CA rear cover without excessive shock.
When sizing this 32 mm bore, stepping down to the MFC25 yields 245.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, whereas moving up to the MFC40 provides 628.3 N. Choose this model when driving heavier payloads at high speeds where the variable air cushion is essential to decelerate the rod smoothly and cut noise. The cushion needle only decelerates the piston near the stroke end; it does not act as a lock or brake. If your application must hold a load vertically during air loss or valve centering, the piston will drift, so you must fit an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve.
Because this SKU includes the -S magnet, it is fully compatible with CMSG, DMSG and EMSG reed or electronic switches. Mounting is handled via the CA back cover pivot, and the male rod thread is M10x1.25.
Quick checklist
This 32 mm bore cylinder features a 1/4" port and a 12 mm rod. It pushes 402.2 N and pulls 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa, pushes 563 N and pulls 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa, and reaches a theoretical maximum of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, the variable air cushion and fixed pad only decelerate the piston near the stroke end; they do not act as a brake or lock. The piston will drift on air loss, so you need an external rod lock or pilot check valve to hold a load. The SUS304 stainless build and -S magnet for CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors make it ideal for washdowns.
