The AirTAC Airtac MFD Double Rod Miniature Cylinder MFD40X75S is a genuine double acting, double rod JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 75mm 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 give the AirTAC MFD40X75S equal force in both directions, outputting 527.8 N at 0.5 MPa and 738.9 N at 0.7 MPa. This JIS-standard round-body mini cylinder uses a SUS304 stainless barrel with riveted aluminium covers, offering a shorter mounting length than an ISO 6432 unit for the same 40 mm bore and 75 mm stroke.
The second rod steadies the load to cut side-play, and this -S variant includes a piston magnet for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches. With a 1/4" port and M14x1.5 male rod threads, it handles a safe working load of about 317 N. Note that fixed TPU bumper pads decelerate the stroke end, but the piston drifts on air loss—use an external rod lock to hold a load.

|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 528 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 739 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 108 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.
Drive two grippers at once using both rod ends, leveraging the 527.8 N force to shuttle parts horizontally without rotational play.
Mount CMSG or DMSG switches on the back rod to confirm stroke position while the front rod handles the 317 N working load.
Use the twin rods as a guided stopper gate in a 40 mm bore assembly line, ensuring the load resists twisting under impact.
Choose the MFD40 over the MFD32 when you need more push and pull: the 40 mm bore delivers 527.8 N at 0.5 MPa versus 345.6 N for the 32 mm. The double-rod build is ideal for anti-rotation slides or mounting a second tool, and the -S magnet enables position sensing. Mount via LB foot, FA flange or TC trunnion (no SDB), and remember the bumpers only decelerate; they do not lock the load.
Quick checklist
The MFD40X75S delivers equal force in both directions: 527.8 N at 0.5 MPa, 738.9 N at 0.7 MPa, and a theoretical max of 107.6 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It uses a 1/4" air port.
The -S means it has a built-in magnet for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches. It has fixed TPU bumper pads for end-of-stroke deceleration, not an adjustable air cushion. The twin rods provide equal force and anti-rotation.
