About the AirTAC MSD32
The AirTAC MSD32 is a single-acting, spring-return multi-mount 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 281.5 N push at 0.5 MPa and 442.4 N at 0.7 MPa. The spring stroke has no air behind it, so it must not carry a load.
The compact square body can be fixed from several faces and several cylinders can be mounted side by side. The rod guide needs no added lubrication. All MSD32 versions use 1/8" air ports and run on filtered air at 0.2 to 1.0 MPa (proof 1.5 MPa), from -20 to +70 °C, at 50 to 500 mm/s. This page lists 8 stock order codes with strokes from 5 to 20 mm; the catalog maximum stroke is 20 mm.

Catalog output force (Ø32 mm)
| Pressure | Push (spring deducted) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 281.5 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 442.4 N |
AirTAC catalog values for the single-acting push type: air force on the full bore less the return-spring force. The spring stroke delivers no rated force.

Where the MSD32 Is Used
Small pushers and stoppers
About 281.5 N at 0.5 MPa in a body that fixes from several faces.
Multi-cylinder banks
Several cylinders mount side by side to save space.
Sensed positioning
Magnet versions report stroke ends through cylinder sensors.
Choosing the Right MSD32 Configuration
Start with the stroke. Pick the exact travel your machine needs; a longer stroke adds length and air consumption without adding force. If your length is not listed, request a quote and we will confirm whether it can be built.
Finally pick the version: S adds a magnet for position sensors.
AirTAC MSD32 FAQ
Air extends the rod with about 281.5 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.
0.2 to 1.0 MPa operating pressure (proof 1.5 MPa), 50 to 500 mm/s and -20 to +70 °C on filtered air.
Usually yes. Request a quote with the stroke and version and we will confirm whether it can be built, plus price and lead time.
No. You can order a single MSD32. Orders are processed and handed to the carrier within 3-5 business days.
