About the AirTAC MSAL32
Discontinued: AirTAC has replaced the MSAL series with the MSBL series. Every MSAL code on this page is supplied as the current MSBL with the same code after the prefix, for example MSAL32X5CA ships as MSBL32X5CA. The specifications on this page are those of the MSBL you receive.
The AirTAC MSAL32 is a single-acting, spring-return aluminium-barrel mini cylinder (push type) with a 32 mm bore and a 12 mm piston rod. Compressed air extends the rod and a built-in spring retracts it when the air is released, so the rod rests retracted; only one port takes air. Catalog output with the spring force already deducted is 281.3 N push at 0.5 MPa and 442.1 N at 0.7 MPa. The spring stroke has no air behind it, so it must not carry a load.
All MSAL32 versions share 1/8" air ports, an M10×1.25 rod thread and rubber bumpers at both ends. The cylinder runs on filtered air between 0.2 and 1.0 MPa (proof 1.5 MPa), from -20 to +70 °C, at 50 to 800 mm/s. This page lists 62 stock order codes with strokes from 5 to 150 mm; the catalog maximum stroke is 150 mm.

Where the MSAL32 Is Used
General automation
About 281.3 N at 0.5 MPa covers most pushing, lifting and indexing tasks.
Clamping fixtures
Rigid mountings hold the cylinder for clamps and presses.
Doors, gates and levers
Pivoting covers and brackets drive mechanisms that swing.
Choosing the Right MSAL32 Configuration
Start with the stroke. Pick the exact travel your machine needs; a longer stroke adds length, weight and air consumption without adding force. If your length is not listed, request a quote and we will confirm whether it can be built.
Then choose the back cover and mounting. The back cover sets how the rear of the cylinder is fixed or where its air enters (CA clevis-end cover, U flat-end cover). Mounting brackets on this page: LB foot bracket, SDB rear pivot bracket. A clevis-end cover with an SDB pivot bracket lets the cylinder swing; flat or round covers with an FA flange or LB foot hold it rigid.
Finally pick the version: S adds a magnet for position sensors.
AirTAC MSAL32 FAQ
Discontinued: AirTAC has replaced the MSAL series with the MSBL series. Every MSAL code on this page is supplied as the current MSBL with the same code after the prefix, for example MSAL32X5CA ships as MSBL32X5CA. The specifications on this page are those of the MSBL you receive.
Air extends the rod with about 281.3 N at 0.5 MPa (catalog value, spring force deducted); the internal spring retracts it when the port is vented. The force does not depend on the stroke code.
No. The return stroke is driven only by the internal spring, and AirTAC specifies that single-acting cylinders must not be loaded on it. Use a double-acting model if both directions must do work.
1/8" ports, PT thread as standard.
Back covers: CA clevis-end cover, U flat-end cover. Brackets: LB foot bracket, SDB rear pivot bracket. Pick a pivoting cover or bracket when the load moves in an arc, a rigid one for straight-line loads.
Usually yes. Request a quote with the stroke, mounting and version and we will confirm whether it can be built, plus price and lead time.
0.2 to 1.0 MPa operating pressure (proof 1.5 MPa) and -20 to +70 °C on filtered air.
No. You can order a single MSAL32. Orders are processed and handed to the carrier within 3-5 business days.
