The AirTAC Airtac MFC Cushioned Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MFC32X75U 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 features a needle-adjustable variable air cushion at both ends to absorb high-speed end-of-stroke shock. The riveted SUS304 stainless barrel and aluminium covers resist mild corrosion and washdown, while the U-style flat-end back cover suits tight rear mounting spaces. For the same bore and stroke, the JIS-standard MFC body is noticeably shorter than an ISO 6432 cylinder.
Equipped with a 1/4" port and a 12 mm rod, it yields a safe working load of roughly 241 N (about 60% of the 0.5 MPa push figure) and lifts around 20.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. Note this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensors; add the -S variant if you need position detection.

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.
Pushes medium-weight cartons at high cycle rates where the variable air cushion prevents harsh end-of-stroke slamming on the 75 mm stroke.
Applies up to 563 N of thrust at 0.7 MPa for seating small bearings or pins, with the U flat-end cover fitting neatly into compact tooling frames.
Hoists roughly 20.5 kg of stock vertically using the 0.5 MPa push force, relying on an external check valve to prevent drift on air loss.
If 245.3 N at 0.5 MPa from the MFC25 is insufficient, this 32 mm bore provides a solid step up, delivering 402.2 N push and 345.6 N pull at 0.5 MPa. Should your application require even greater thrust, the MFC40 offers 628.3 N at 0.5 MPa. The adjustable air cushion is essential when moving heavier masses at high speeds, as it decelerates the piston smoothly without harsh impacts.
Because this is a plain double-acting cylinder, it will drift and cannot hold a load if air pressure drops or the valve is centred—the cushion only decelerates near the stroke end and acts as no brake. For suspended or vertical loads, install an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve. Furthermore, without the -S magnet option, this unit cannot host magnetic switches; choose the -S version for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensing.
Quick checklist
This 32 mm bore cylinder uses a 1/4" port and a 12 mm rod. 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, this specific SKU does not include the -S magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches. You must select the -S variant for position sensing. The SUS304 stainless build resists mild corrosion, and the needle-set variable air cushion decelerates the piston near stroke end but does not lock the load.
