The AirTAC Airtac MFC Cushioned Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MFC40X67SCM is a genuine double acting + cushion JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 67mm 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 628.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting round-body mini cylinder tackles heavy loads within a compact JIS-standard footprint. The MFC40X67SCM variant features a 40 mm bore, a 67 mm stroke, a built-in piston magnet, and a CM round-end rear cover. A two-way oil-retaining seal and a fixed front anti-impact pad complement the adjustable needle valves at both ends to manage end-of-stroke energy.
The variable air cushion at both ends lets you dial in the deceleration to absorb high-speed shock, protecting the load and cutting noise. Built with a SUS304 stainless barrel and riveted aluminium covers, it resists mild corrosion and washdown. For the same bore and stroke, the body is shorter than an ISO 6432 cylinder. The 1/4" port and M14x1.5 male rod thread handle substantial flow, and the -S magnet enables CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches for position sensing.

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 628.3 N push force to deflect heavy cartons on a high-speed sorting line, relying on the adjustable air cushion to stop the 67 mm stroke smoothly without slamming.
Ejects dense stamped parts from a tool bed, where the 32 kg vertical lift capacity and fixed front anti-impact pad handle the sudden load transfer safely.
Acts as a robust pneumatic stop gate for loaded pallets, using the CM round-end cover and SUS304 barrel to withstand occasional washdowns in distribution hubs.
This 40 mm bore provides the maximum thrust in the MFC family, pushing 628.3 N and pulling 527.8 N at 0.5 MPa. If your application is lighter, stepping down to the MFC32 yields 402.2 N of push force; no larger MFC bore exists. At 0.7 MPa, output climbs to 879.6 N push and 738.9 N pull. A computed safe working load is roughly 377 N, and it lifts about 32 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin.
The variable air cushion is essential when cycling at high speeds or moving heavy masses, as it only decelerates the piston near the stroke end to prevent impact damage. It does not function as a lock or brake; if air is lost, the piston drifts, so use an external rod lock or pilot check valve for holding. Mounting options include LB foot, FA flange, SDB pivot, and TC trunnion blocks to suit your frame.
Quick checklist
This 40 mm bore double-acting cylinder has a 1/4" air port and an M14x1.5 male rod thread. It generates 628.3 N push and 527.8 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 879.6 N push and 738.9 N pull at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical maximum of 128.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, the variable air cushion only decelerates the piston near the end of the stroke to reduce shock; it is not a brake or lock. The piston will drift on air loss or valve centering, so an external rod lock or pilot check valve is required to hold a load. The built-in -S magnet supports CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG sensors for position confirmation.
