Airtac MFC Cushioned Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MFC32X80SCA
The AirTAC Airtac MFC Cushioned Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MFC32X80SCA is a genuine double acting + cushion JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 80mm 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 MFC32X80SCA
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 decelerate high-speed loads smoothly. The riveted SUS304 stainless barrel and aluminium covers resist mild corrosion and washdown environments. Because it follows JIS round-body geometry, the overall length is shorter than an ISO 6432 cylinder for the same 80 mm stroke, saving valuable mounting space.
Equipped with a CA rear pivot cover and a 1/4 inch port, the unit accepts CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches via its built-in -S piston magnet. The 12 mm rod uses an M10x1.25 male thread. For vertical lifting tasks, expect a safe working load of roughly 241 N, meaning it lifts about 20.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin.

Where the Airtac MFC Cushioned Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MFC32X80SCA Is Used
Package Diverting
Pushes medium-weight cartons at high cycle rates where the variable air cushion prevents harsh slams at the 80 mm stroke end.
Component Seating
Presses bearings or pins with 402.2 N of force, using the adjustable needle to gently decelerate before contact.
Pallet Stop Arms
Halts pallets on a washdown line; the SUS304 barrel resists moisture while the CA pivot allows angular self-alignment.
Is the Airtac MFC Cushioned Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MFC32X80SCA the Right Cylinder?
If 245.3 N from the MFC25 is insufficient, this 32 mm bore provides the necessary step up, while stepping to the MFC40 yields 628.3 N for heavier fixtures. The adjustable air cushion is essential when moving substantial masses at high speeds, as it absorbs end-of-stroke impact far better than a fixed bumper. Note that the cushion only decelerates the piston near the stroke end; it does not function as a brake. If your application must hold a load vertically during air loss, install an external rod lock or pilot check valve. Mounting options include LB foot, FA flange, SDB pivot and TC trunnion to suit various frames.
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 MFC32X80SCA FAQ
This double-acting cylinder features a 1/4 inch port and generates 402.2 N push / 345.6 N pull at 0.5 MPa, and 563 N push / 483.8 N pull at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical maximum force is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The -S option provides a built-in magnet for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensors. The variable air cushion at both ends only decelerates the piston near stroke end to reduce shock; it is not a brake. The piston will drift on air loss, so use a pilot check valve for holding.
