Airtac MFC Cushioned Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MFC32X50SUTC
The AirTAC Airtac MFC Cushioned Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MFC32X50SUTC is a genuine double acting + cushion JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 50mm 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 MFC32X50SUTC
Tune out end-of-stroke shock with the AirTAC MFC32X50SUTC, a JIS-standard round-body mini cylinder built for double-acting service. A needle-set variable air cushion at both ends soaks up kinetic energy at high speed, protecting your payload far better than a fixed bumper. The SUS304 stainless barrel and riveted aluminium covers resist mild corrosion and washdown, while the U flat-end back cover and TC trunnion mounting make rear pivot installations straightforward.
In the 32 mm bore class, this unit pushes with 402.2 N and pulls with 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa. That translates to a safe working load of roughly 241 N, or lifting about 20.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. The 1/4" port feeds the 12 mm rod, and because the -S option is present, a built-in magnet enables CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches for position sensing. For the same 32 mm bore and 50 mm stroke, the MFC body is shorter than an ISO 6432 cylinder, saving valuable machine length.

Where the Airtac MFC Cushioned Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MFC32X50SUTC Is Used
Package Diverting
Shift medium-weight cartons at high cycle rates; the adjustable air cushion prevents harsh slams when the 50 mm stroke reaches its end.
Component Seating
Press bearings or pins with 402.2 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, relying on the needle valve to soften the final landing.
Vertical Lift Stops
Raise 20 kg fixtures safely; the TC trunnion handles the pivot load while the cushion absorbs the downward momentum at stroke end.
Is the Airtac MFC Cushioned Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MFC32X50SUTC the Right Cylinder?
If 245.3 N from the MFC25 at 0.5 MPa is too light, this 32 mm bore steps up to 402.2 N; should you need more thrust, the MFC40 delivers 628.3 N at the same pressure. The variable air cushion shines when cycling at high speeds or moving heavy loads, letting you dial in the deceleration to prevent harsh impacts. Remember that the cushion only decelerates near the stroke end—it is not a brake. The piston will drift if air is lost or the valve is centred, so fit an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve if you must hold a load. This SUTC configuration includes the -S magnet for sensors and the TC trunnion for pivot mounting.
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 MFC32X50SUTC FAQ
This 32 mm bore cylinder pushes with 402.2 N and pulls with 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa. At 0.7 MPa it pushes 563 N and pulls 483.8 N. The theoretical maximum force is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It uses a 1/4" air port and a 12 mm piston rod with an M10x1.25 male thread.
No, the piston will drift if air is lost or the directional valve is centred. The variable air cushion only decelerates the piston near the end of the stroke; it does not act as a lock or brake. You must add an external rod lock or pilot check valve to hold a suspended load.
