The AirTAC Airtac MSF Single Acting Mini Cylinder MSF32X80SU is a genuine single acting, push (spring return) JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 80mm 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.
Delivering 323.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (484.1 N at 0.7 MPa), this 32 mm bore mini cylinder uses air to extend the rod and an internal spring to retract it. Because you only plumb a single 1/4" port, valve complexity drops, and the unit fails to the retracted position on air loss. The quoted force is already net of the return spring. With a practical safe working load of roughly 194 N, it can vertically lift or clamp about 16.5 kg with a 2:1 safety margin.
Built as a JIS-standard round-body unit with a SUS304 stainless barrel and riveted aluminium covers, the body is notably shorter than an ISO 6432 cylinder of the same bore and stroke. It features fixed TPU bumper pads, a U flat-end back cover, and an 80 mm stroke. The -S suffix equips the piston with a magnet for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position sensing.

Single-acting push: air extends the rod; the return spring retracts it. Forces already net the spring; minimum working pressure is 0.2 MPa.

MF-family variants: MF / MFC (double acting ±cushion), MSF / MTF (single acting push / pull), MFD / MFCD (double rod ±cushion), MFJ / MFCJ (adjustable stroke ±cushion). Back covers CA / U / CM. Mounting LB / FA / SDB / TC.
Pushes finished 16 kg machined components out of a fixture using 323.3 N of force, relying on the internal spring to retract the 12 mm rod when air is removed.
Secures workpieces during light milling with a safe holding force near 194 N, automatically releasing the clamp if the compressed air supply drops out.
Extends an 80 mm stroke to divert packages on a washdown line, where the SUS304 stainless barrel resists mild corrosion from cleaning sprays.
If 323.3 N at 0.5 MPa is insufficient, step up to the MSF40 which provides 535.3 N; if your task requires less, the MSF25 offers 192.8 N. This single-acting push design is ideal for simple clamping, ejecting, or gating tasks where the spring return handles the unpowered stroke. You must supply at least 0.2 MPa of air pressure to overcome the return spring. Mounting options include LB foot, FA flange, SDB pivot, and TC trunnion brackets to fit your frame.
Quick checklist
It generates 323.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and 484.1 N at 0.7 MPa. Operating pressure ranges from 0.2 MPa to 1.0 MPa, but you need at least 0.2 MPa to overcome the internal return spring. The cylinder has a 1/4" air port.
No. On air loss the spring drives the rod to the retracted position, so it cannot hold an arbitrary mid-stroke load. For a held mid-stroke load, use a double-acting MF cylinder with an external rod lock. The -S variant here allows CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors to track end positions.
