The AirTAC Airtac MFCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MFCJ32X50-50S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke + cushion JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 50mm 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.
Trim the extend stroke by up to 50 mm on site and dial in a needle air cushion at each end to absorb high-speed shocks with the AirTAC MFCJ32X50-50S. This double-acting JIS-standard round-body mini cylinder features a SUS304 stainless barrel and riveted aluminium covers, offering a shorter mounting length than a comparable ISO 6432 unit while resisting mild washdown corrosion.
Fitted with a 1/4" port and a 12 mm rod (M10x1.25 thread), this bore delivers 402.2 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. That translates to a safe working load of roughly 241 N, or enough thrust to lift about 20.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. The -S suffix adds a piston magnet for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches, and the external adjuster sets the end position without acting as a mid-stroke lock.

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.
Dial in the exact 0-50 mm extend position and set the needle cushion to quietly stop a 241 N workhead during rapid format changeovers.
Gradually extend the 12 mm rod to press a 20.5 kg component into place, relying on the adjustable stroke to prevent over-travel damage.
Use the variable air cushion to decelerate the 402.2 N thrust at stroke end, protecting delicate test fixtures from high-speed impact.
When sizing this adjustable family, compare the real 0.5 MPa thrusts: the MFCJ32 shown here pushes 402.2 N, the larger MFCJ40 reaches 628.3 N, and the smaller MFCJ25 provides 245.3 N. Choose the 32 mm bore when your changeover requires moderate force plus the ability to fine-tune the extend end by up to 50 mm and soften end-of-stroke impact via the variable air cushion.
Because the cushion only decelerates the piston near the end of travel and the adjuster solely sets that end position, the MFCJ32X50-50S will not hold a load if air pressure drops—the piston drifts. For suspended loads, install an external rod lock or pilot check valve. Mount using LB foot, FA flange or TC trunnion brackets (no SDB), and rely on the built-in -S magnet for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensor feedback.
Quick checklist
This 32 mm bore cylinder has a 1/4" port and a 12 mm rod. At 0.5 MPa it pushes 402.2 N and pulls 345.6 N. At 0.7 MPa it pushes 563 N and pulls 483.8 N. The theoretical maximum force is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The -S suffix provides a built-in magnet for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches. The external adjuster only shortens the extend stroke end position by up to 50 mm; it does not lock the piston mid-stroke. The variable air cushion solely decelerates the piston near the ends.
