The AirTAC Airtac MFC Cushioned Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MFC32X75CA is a genuine double acting + cushion JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 75mm 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 32 mm bore double-acting mini cylinder is built for demanding tasks. The MFC32X75CA features a variable air cushion at both ends, allowing you to turn a needle valve to soak up high-speed end-of-stroke shock, protecting the load and cutting noise. Its SUS304 stainless steel barrel and riveted aluminium covers resist mild corrosion and washdown environments.
For the same bore and stroke, this JIS-standard round-body cylinder is notably shorter than an ISO 6432 cylinder, saving valuable mounting length. It features a 1/4" port, a 12 mm rod, and a CA rear pivot cover. Note that this specific SKU lacks a magnet and cannot take a sensor; adding the -S option enables CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. Based on the 0.5 MPa push force, it handles a safe working load of about 241 N, lifting roughly 20.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin.

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.
Uses the 402.2 N push force to push heavy cartons off a high-speed belt, with the variable air cushion preventing harsh slams at the 75 mm stroke end.
Presses bearings or pins into housings on an assembly line, relying on the 32 mm bore thrust and the CA pivot to absorb the seating impact smoothly.
Folds thick cardboard flaps on automated case sealers where the riveted SUS304 body withstands dusty, mildly humid packaging plant conditions.
When sizing this 32 mm bore, check both directions: step down to the MFC25 for 245.3 N at 0.5 MPa if loads are lighter, or step up to the MFC40 for 628.3 N if you need more thrust. The variable air cushion is essential when cycling at high speeds or moving heavy masses, as it decelerates the piston smoothly near stroke end. Remember that the cushion only slows the piston; it does not act as a lock or brake.
Because this plain SKU has no -S magnet, it cannot support magnetic position sensing. If your application requires mid-stroke or end-stroke feedback, select the -S variant. Furthermore, a standard cylinder does not hold its load on air loss or when the valve is centered, as the piston will drift. To suspend a load safely, install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve. Mounting options include LB foot, FA flange, SDB pivot, and TC trunnion.
Quick checklist
This 32 mm bore cylinder features a 1/4" port and a 12 mm rod. It generates 402.2 N push and 345.6 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 563 N push and 483.8 N pull at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical maximum force of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, this specific SKU does not include a magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. You must order the -S variant for sensing capabilities. The variable air cushion at both ends only decelerates the load near stroke end and does not lock or hold the piston in place.
