The AirTAC Airtac MFD Double Rod Miniature Cylinder MFD32X25 is a genuine double acting, double rod JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 25mm 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.
Twin rods exiting both covers define the AirTAC MFD32X25, yielding identical thrust in extend and retract directions using the rod-side area. This JIS-standard round-body mini cylinder delivers 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa and 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa both ways, with a 1/4" air port. The SUS304 stainless barrel and riveted aluminium covers resist mild corrosion and washdowns.
The second rod steadies the load and cuts side-play versus a single-rod build, while providing a ready mount for stoppers or a second tool. For this 32 mm bore, a safe working load is roughly 207 N, handling about 17.6 kg vertically each way with a 2:1 margin. Note this SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot take a sensor; the -S variant enables CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC MF/MFC (JIS-standard) datasheet. Barrel: SUS304 stainless steel; covers: aluminum alloy (round-body, riveted rolling-packed construction). Thread options: PT (blank) / G / NPT.
| Pressure | Force (both ways) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 346 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 484 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 70 kgf |
Double-rod: a rod exits both covers, so output force is equal in both directions (rod-side area used).

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.
With 345.6 N of equal force both ways, the twin rods resist twisting on short 25 mm stroke transfers better than a single-rod mini.
Mount a second tool or stopper on the rear rod to perform a synchronized action, leveraging the 483.8 N available at 0.7 MPa.
The SUS304 stainless barrel withstands mild washdowns while diverting light packages on a 25 mm stroke without side-play.
When sizing between the available bores, the MFD32X25 sits perfectly between the MFD25 at 206.1 N and the MFD40 at 527.8 N at 0.5 MPa. Choose this 32 mm bore when the smaller 25 mm lacks thrust but the 40 mm is physically too large. The 25 mm stroke suits very short transfers.
The fixed TPU bumper pads decelerate the stroke ends but do not lock the piston; if air drops, the load drifts, so add an external rod lock or pilot check valve for holding. Mount via LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion—there is no SDB or back-cover code because a rod exits both ends.
Quick checklist
It delivers equal force both ways: 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa, 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa, and a theoretical max of 70.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The bore-fixed air port is 1/4".
No, this specific SKU lacks a magnet and cannot take a switch. You need the -S variant to use CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors for position detection.
