Airtac MFCD Double Rod Cushioned Mini Cylinder MFCD32X125
The AirTAC Airtac MFCD Double Rod Cushioned Mini Cylinder MFCD32X125 is a genuine double acting, double rod + cushion JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 125mm 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 MFCD Double Rod Cushioned Mini Cylinder MFCD32X125
Twin rods exiting both covers give the AirTAC MFCD32X125 equal 345.6 N force in each direction at 0.5 MPa, while a needle-set variable air cushion at each end absorbs high-speed end-of-stroke shock. This JIS-standard round-body mini cylinder uses a SUS304 stainless barrel with riveted aluminium covers, offering a shorter overall mounting length than an ISO 6432 unit of the same bore and stroke.
The Ø32 mm bore runs on a 1/4" port with M10x1.25 male rod threads, yielding a theoretical maximum of 70.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Because the twin rods resist rotation and steady the load, this non-magnet SKU provides a safe working load of roughly 207 N, lifting about 17.6 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. Note that without the -S magnet option it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensors.

Where the Airtac MFCD Double Rod Cushioned Mini Cylinder MFCD32X125 Is Used
Twin-Tool Machining
Drives opposing clamps or dual machining heads with 345.6 N of equal thrust both ways, keeping the 125 mm stroke perfectly synchronized without rotational drift.
High-Speed Diverting
Uses the dual rods and variable air cushions to snap packages across a belt at up to 800 mm/s, bringing the load to a quiet, shock-free stop at end of stroke.
Vertical Lift Gate
Lifts a roughly 17.6 kg access flap with a 2:1 safety margin, relying on the second rod to prevent binding and side-play during the 125 mm travel.
Is the Airtac MFCD Double Rod Cushioned Mini Cylinder MFCD32X125 the Right Cylinder?
When sizing across the range, this 32 mm bore delivers 345.6 N both ways at 0.5 MPa, sitting neatly between the MFCD25 at 206.1 N and the MFCD40 at 527.8 N. Choose the 32 mm variant when your twin-tool or high-speed anti-rotation setup needs that mid-range thrust without stepping up to a larger body.
Mounting options include LB foot, FA flange and TC trunnion brackets, with no back-cover or SDB option since a rod exits both ends. Remember that the air cushion only decelerates the piston near stroke end and does not act as a brake; if you need to hold a load vertically during air loss, fit an external rod lock or pilot check valve. This specific SKU lacks the -S magnet, so position sensing is not supported here.
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 MFCD Double Rod Cushioned Mini Cylinder MFCD32X125 FAQ
This double-acting, double-rod cylinder generates 345.6 N of force at 0.5 MPa and 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa, equal in both directions, with a theoretical max of 70.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It features a 32 mm bore, a 1/4" air port, and M10x1.25 male rod threads on the 12 mm rods.
This non-magnet SKU cannot accept CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches; you must specify the -S variant for sensing. The variable air cushion at both ends only decelerates the piston near stroke end to reduce shock and does not lock or hold the load on air loss.
