This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is AIRTACMSBLFRONTSINGLEACTINGCOMPACTCYLINDERMSBL32X75SCM — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the AIRTACMSBLFRONTSINGLEACTINGCOMPACTCYLINDERMSBL32X75SCM 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 MSAL32X75SCM
The AirTAC Airtac MSAL Front Single Acting Compact Cylinder MSAL32X75SCM 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 AIRTACMSBLFRONTSINGLEACTINGCOMPACTCYLINDERMSBL32X75SCM.

About the Airtac MSAL Front Single Acting Compact Cylinder MSAL32X75SCM
The AirTAC MSAL32X75SCM is a discontinued single-acting push, spring-return mini cylinder. Air extends the rod for the work stroke, while an internal spring retracts it to a fail-safe home when air is released. For this 32mm bore, usable push force is 317.7 N at 0.5 MPa and 478.5 N at 0.7 MPa. The exact drop-in replacement is the MSBL32X75SCM, matching the 75mm stroke, G1/8 port, and CM cover.
This SKU features a -S magnet compatible with older CS1-M and DS1-M reed switches; the MSBL successor upgrades to CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors. The MSAL body uses threaded covers, whereas the modern MSBL features a riveted rolling-packed body. A fixed rubber bumper absorbs end-of-stroke impact, as no adjustable cushion exists. Apply no external load on the spring return stroke.
Airtac MSAL Front Single Acting Compact Cylinder MSAL32X75SCM Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac MSAL Front Single Acting Compact Cylinder MSAL32X75SCM |
|---|---|
| Series | MAL single-acting mini cylinder (discontinued) |
| Replacement | AIRTACMSBLFRONTSINGLEACTINGCOMPACTCYLINDERMSBL32X75SCM |
| 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 AIRTACMSBLFRONTSINGLEACTINGCOMPACTCYLINDERMSBL32X75SCM 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 MSAL32X75SCM Is Used
PCB Router Ejection
Deploys 317.7 N at 0.5 MPa to push cut printed circuit boards out of a routing fixture, using the spring return to clear the zone for the next panel.
Bottle Capper Press
Applies a 478.5 N @0.7 MPa downward press to seat screw caps on a filling line, with the fail-safe home lifting the head if air pressure drops.
Textile Loom Gate
Extends 75mm to deflect yarn paths during weaving pattern changes, retracting instantly via spring when the 3/2 valve vents.
Replacing the Airtac MSAL Front Single Acting Compact Cylinder MSAL32X75SCM with AIRTACMSBLFRONTSINGLEACTINGCOMPACTCYLINDERMSBL32X75SCM
To replace this MSAL32X75SCM, install the drop-in MSBL32X75SCM. Confirm the 32mm bore, 75mm stroke, G1/8 PT port, M10x1.25 rod-end, CM round-end cover, and -S magnet. Note the sensor family change from CS1-M/DS1-M to CMSG/DMSG/EMSG. Minimum operating pressure is 0.2 MPa to overcome the return spring.
Size both ways: step down to bore 25 (176.4 N push @0.5 MPa) for lighter ejection, or step up to bore 40 (539.9 N @0.5 MPa) for heavier pressing. With a 75mm stroke on a 32mm bore, check rod-bending limits and avoid excessive side loads.
Upgrade checklist
- ✓ Order the AIRTACMSBLFRONTSINGLEACTINGCOMPACTCYLINDERMSBL32X75SCM (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 AIRTACMSBLFRONTSINGLEACTINGCOMPACTCYLINDERMSBL32X75SCM instead of this discontinued model.
Airtac MSAL Front Single Acting Compact Cylinder MSAL32X75SCM FAQ
Yes, the MSAL32X75SCM is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the MSBL32X75SCM, retaining the same 32mm bore, 75mm stroke, G1/8 port, and CM mounting. You must upgrade switches from CS1-M/DS1-M to CMSG/DMSG/EMSG.
