This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is AIRTACMSBLFRONTSINGLEACTINGCOMPACTCYLINDERMSBL32X75SU — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the AIRTACMSBLFRONTSINGLEACTINGCOMPACTCYLINDERMSBL32X75SU 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 MSAL32X75SU
The AirTAC Airtac MSAL Front Single Acting Compact Cylinder MSAL32X75SU 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 AIRTACMSBLFRONTSINGLEACTINGCOMPACTCYLINDERMSBL32X75SU.

About the Airtac MSAL Front Single Acting Compact Cylinder MSAL32X75SU
The AirTAC MSAL32X75SU is a discontinued single-acting push, spring-return mini cylinder. Air extends the 12mm rod for the 75mm work stroke, 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 and 478.5 N at 0.7 MPa. The exact drop-in replacement is the MSBL32X75SU, matching the 32mm bore, stroke, G1/8 port, and U flat-end back cover.
This SKU includes the -S magnet for position sensing, using the older CS1-M or DS1-M switches. The MSBL successor upgrades to CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors and swaps the original threaded covers for a riveted rolling-packed body. End-of-stroke energy is absorbed by a fixed rubber bumper, as no adjustable cushion exists in this series.

| 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 AIRTACMSBLFRONTSINGLEACTINGCOMPACTCYLINDERMSBL32X75SU 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 MSAL32X75SU Is Used
PCB Router Clamp
Holds a printed circuit board panel against a router fixture with 317.7 N at 0.5 MPa, releasing instantly to its spring-return home when the 3/2 valve drops air.
Stamping Ejector
Pushes small metal stamped parts out of a die cavity using 478.5 N at 0.7 MPa, relying on the fixed rubber bumper to absorb the end-stroke impact.
Textile Diverter Gate
Extends to reroute a fabric web on a weaving machine, safely springing back to its retracted fail-safe position if the pneumatic air supply is interrupted.
Replacing the Airtac MSAL Front Single Acting Compact Cylinder MSAL32X75SU with AIRTACMSBLFRONTSINGLEACTINGCOMPACTCYLINDERMSBL32X75SU
To replace this MSAL32X75SU, order the MSBL32X75SU. Confirm the 32mm bore, 75mm stroke, PT G1/8 port, M10x1.25 rod-end thread, U flat-end back cover, and -S magnet. Remember the sensor family change: CS1-M/DS1-M switches move to CMSG/DMSG/EMSG on the new MSBL. Ensure your air supply meets the 0.2 MPa minimum to beat the return spring, and apply no external load on the spring return stroke.
For sizing flexibility, the next size down is the 25mm bore delivering 176.4 N at 0.5 MPa, while the next size up is the 40mm bore providing 539.9 N at 0.5 MPa. With a 75mm stroke on this compact 32mm body, verify your mounting to prevent rod-bending side loads.
Upgrade checklist
- ✓ Order the AIRTACMSBLFRONTSINGLEACTINGCOMPACTCYLINDERMSBL32X75SU (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 AIRTACMSBLFRONTSINGLEACTINGCOMPACTCYLINDERMSBL32X75SU instead of this discontinued model.
Airtac MSAL Front Single Acting Compact Cylinder MSAL32X75SU FAQ
Yes, the MSAL32X75SU is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the MSBL32X75SU, which matches the 32mm bore, 75mm stroke, G1/8 port, U back cover, and -S magnet. The MSBL upgrades the body to a riveted rolling-packed design and uses CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors instead of the older CS1-M/DS1-M switches.
The usable push force is 317.7 N at 0.5 MPa and 478.5 N at 0.7 MPa. The maximum equivalent is about 48.8 kgf at 0.7 MPa. A minimum operating pressure of 0.2 MPa is required for air to beat the internal return spring and extend the rod.
