Airtac MSF Single Acting Mini Cylinder MSF32X100SCA
The AirTAC Airtac MSF Single Acting Mini Cylinder MSF32X100SCA is a genuine single acting, push (spring return) JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 100mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and a SUS304 stainless-steel barrel for mildly corrosive environments. For the same bore and stroke it is shorter than an ISO 6432 cylinder, saving mounting space.

About the Airtac MSF Single Acting Mini Cylinder MSF32X100SCA
Delivering 323.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (484.1 N at 0.7 MPa), this AirTAC mini cylinder uses compressed air to extend a 12 mm rod and an internal spring to retract it. Because it is single-acting, you only plumb one 1/4 inch port, simplifying valve requirements. The quoted force is already net of the return spring, which dictates a 0.2 MPa minimum operating pressure to ensure air overcomes the spring.
Built with a SUS304 stainless barrel and riveted aluminium covers, this JIS-standard round-body unit is shorter than an ISO 6432 cylinder of the same bore and stroke, saving valuable machine space. It features fixed TPU bumper pads, a male M10x1.25 rod thread, and a CA rear pivot cover. For a practical guideline, the safe working load is about 194 N, or it can vertically lift roughly 16.5 kg with a 2:1 safety margin.

Where the Airtac MSF Single Acting Mini Cylinder MSF32X100SCA Is Used
Part Ejection
Uses the 323.3 N push force to eject stamped parts from a die, with the spring ensuring the rod retracts safely if air pressure drops.
Divert Gate
Extends a 100 mm stroke to block or guide items on a line, relying on the single-acting design for simpler plumbing and fail-safe retraction.
Load Lifting
Raises lightweight trays or bins vertically, handling roughly 16.5 kg with a 2:1 safety margin before the spring pulls the rod back.
Is the Airtac MSF Single Acting Mini Cylinder MSF32X100SCA the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 32 mm bore, compare it both ways: step down to the MSF25 for 192.8 N at 0.5 MPa, or step up to the MSF40 for 535.3 N at 0.5 MPa. This MSF32X100SCA fits spring-return clamping, ejecting, or gating tasks where air loss safely retracts the load. Remember the 0.2 MPa floor needed to beat the spring.
The CA back cover provides a rear pivot point for angular movement. Mounting options include LB foot, FA flange, and TC trunnion. To fit CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors, you must specify the -S magnet option; a standard SKU cannot accept a switch.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT / G / NPT)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Back cover (CA/U/CM) & mount (LB/FA/SDB/TC)
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.2 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Do not dismantle the riveted front/back covers.
- check Use correct back cover (CA/U/CM) & mount (LB/FA/SDB/TC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac MSF Single Acting Mini Cylinder MSF32X100SCA FAQ
It generates 323.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and 484.1 N at 0.7 MPa. The operating pressure ranges from 0.2 to 1.0 MPa. A minimum of 0.2 MPa is required to overcome the internal return spring.
No. On air loss the spring drives the rod to the retracted position; it cannot hold an arbitrary mid-stroke load. For a held mid-stroke load use a double-acting MF with an external rod lock. The SUS304 stainless build resists mild corrosion.
