This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is AIRTACMSBLFRONTSINGLEACTINGCOMPACTCYLINDERMSBL32X75CASDB — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the AIRTACMSBLFRONTSINGLEACTINGCOMPACTCYLINDERMSBL32X75CASDB in place of this model. The replacement upgrades to a riveted rolling-packed body and CMSG / DMSG / EMSG sensors (the MAL used CS1-M / DS1-M).
Airtac MSAL Front Single Acting Compact Cylinder MSAL32X75CASDB
The AirTAC Airtac MSAL Front Single Acting Compact Cylinder MSAL32X75CASDB is a single acting, push (spring return) aluminum-barrel mini cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 75mm stroke, G1/8 ports and a fixed rubber bumper. Air drives the push (work) stroke and the spring returns the rod — it rests retracted on air loss. This model is discontinued; the drop-in replacement is the AIRTACMSBLFRONTSINGLEACTINGCOMPACTCYLINDERMSBL32X75CASDB.

About the Airtac MSAL Front Single Acting Compact Cylinder MSAL32X75CASDB
The AirTAC MSAL32X75CASDB is a discontinued 32mm bore, 75mm stroke single-acting push cylinder with a spring return. Air extends the rod to do the work, while an internal spring retracts it for a fail-safe home on air loss. It delivers 317.7 N of usable push force at 0.5 MPa. The exact drop-in replacement is the MSBL32X75CASDB, matching the bore, stroke, CA pivot cover, and SDB bracket.
This SKU has no -S magnet, so it cannot take a position sensor. The MSAL uses older CS1-M/DS1-M switches, while the MSBL upgrades to CMSG/DMSG/EMSG. The MSAL has threaded covers, whereas the MSBL uses a riveted rolling-packed body. This unit has a fixed rubber bumper, not an adjustable cushion. Apply no external load on the spring return stroke.
Airtac MSAL Front Single Acting Compact Cylinder MSAL32X75CASDB Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac MSAL Front Single Acting Compact Cylinder MSAL32X75CASDB |
|---|---|
| Series | MAL single-acting mini cylinder (discontinued) |
| Replacement | AIRTACMSBLFRONTSINGLEACTINGCOMPACTCYLINDERMSBL32X75CASDB |
| Bore size | Ø32 mm |
| Stroke | 75 mm |
| Acting type | Single acting, push (spring return) |
| Port size | G1/8 |
| Rod thread | M10×1.25 |
| Fluid | Air (filtered by 40µm element) |
|---|---|
| Operating pressure | 0.2 – 1.0 MPa |
| Proof pressure | 1.5 MPa |
| Temperature | -20 to +70 °C |
| Speed range | 50 – 800 mm/s |
| Cushion | Fixed rubber bumper |
| Max standard stroke | Up to 150 mm |
Single-acting minimum working pressure is 0.2 MPa (the air must overcome the return spring). Do not apply an external load during the spring return stroke. The AIRTACMSBLFRONTSINGLEACTINGCOMPACTCYLINDERMSBL32X75CASDB carries the same single-acting ratings.
Usable Push Force (Ø32mm)
| Pressure | Push force (net of spring) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 317.7 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 478.5 N |
Usable single-acting force after the return spring — lower than a same-bore double-acting cylinder. Size with a margin.

Where the Airtac MSAL Front Single Acting Compact Cylinder MSAL32X75CASDB Is Used
PCB Router Clamp
Holds a printed circuit board panel flat against a router fixture using 317.7 N at 0.5 MPa, releasing instantly to the fail-safe home when the 3/2 valve drops air.
Stamping Press Ejector
Pushes small metal blanks out of a stamping die with 478.5 N at 0.7 MPa, the internal spring retracting the rod to clear the die area during the press upstroke.
Packaging Flap Diverter
Arcs a pivot gate to redirect cartons down a packaging line, using the CA clevis and SDB bracket to swing smoothly without binding the rod under lateral motion.
Replacing the Airtac MSAL Front Single Acting Compact Cylinder MSAL32X75CASDB with AIRTACMSBLFRONTSINGLEACTINGCOMPACTCYLINDERMSBL32X75CASDB
To replace this MSAL32X75CASDB with the MSBL32X75CASDB, confirm the 32mm bore, 75mm stroke, G1/8 port, PT thread, CA clevis back cover, and SDB bracket. Because this SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot accept a sensor; if you need position detection, step up to an MSBL with the -S suffix and use CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches. Remember the 0.2 MPa minimum operating pressure needed to beat the return spring, and never apply external load on the return stroke.
If sizing force, step down to a 25mm bore (176.4 N at 0.5 MPa) for lighter jobs, or step up to a 40mm bore (539.9 N at 0.5 MPa) for heavier press tasks. At 75mm stroke on a mini cylinder, watch for side-load and rod-bending.
Upgrade checklist
- ✓ Order the AIRTACMSBLFRONTSINGLEACTINGCOMPACTCYLINDERMSBL32X75CASDB (same bore/stroke/force)
- ✓ Same push direction and retracted fail-safe home
- ✓ Min 0.2 MPa; no external load on the spring return
- ✓ Sensor: swap CS1-M/DS1-M → CMSG/DMSG/EMSG
- ✓ Confirm back cover (CA / U) and thread (PT/NPT/G)
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.2 – 1.0 MPa (min 0.2 to overcome the spring).
- check Apply no external load on the spring return stroke.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Front/rear covers are threaded — not for field disassembly.
- check For new builds, specify the AIRTACMSBLFRONTSINGLEACTINGCOMPACTCYLINDERMSBL32X75CASDB instead of this discontinued model.
Airtac MSAL Front Single Acting Compact Cylinder MSAL32X75CASDB FAQ
Yes, the MSAL32X75CASDB is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the MSBL32X75CASDB, which matches the 32mm bore, 75mm stroke, G1/8 port, CA clevis, and SDB bracket. The MSBL upgrades the body to a riveted rolling-packed design and uses CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors if you add the -S suffix.
This single-acting push cylinder delivers 317.7 N of usable force at 0.5 MPa and 478.5 N at 0.7 MPa (max 48.8 kgf). It requires a minimum of 0.2 MPa to overcome the return spring. The spring drives the rod to a fail-safe retracted home on air loss, but it is not a lock for holding mid-stroke loads.
