The AirTAC Airtac MTF Mini Cylinder MTF32X100CM is a genuine single acting, pull (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.
Delivering 266.8 N of net pull at 0.5 MPa, this JIS-standard round-body mini cylinder uses a SUS304 stainless barrel and riveted aluminium covers to save mounting length compared to ISO 6432 units. The MTF32X100CM is a single-acting pull type: an internal spring holds the 12 mm rod extended, while 1/4" ported air retracts it. If air pressure drops, the spring pushes the rod back out, failing safely to the extended position.
Because the quoted force is already net of the spring, you can plan loads precisely. Applying a 2:1 safety margin to the 0.5 MPa yield gives an effective vertical lift capacity of about 13.6 kg. This base SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot host CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors. End-of-stroke deceleration relies on fixed TPU bumper pads rather than an adjustable cushion.

| 0.5 MPa | 266.8 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 405.0 N |
Single-acting pull: the spring extends the rod; air 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.
Holds a strap or filament taut with its internal spring, using the 266.8 N pull force to release tension when 1/4 inch ported air is applied.
Keeps access doors open by default. Air retracts the rod to close them, and a loss of pressure lets the spring push the barrier back out.
Pulls a 100 mm stroke packaging pin out of the way. The fixed TPU bumpers absorb the shock when the rod snaps back to its extended rest state.
When sizing this 32 mm bore, compare it both ways: the MTF25 offers 153.6 N at 0.5 MPa, while the MTF40 provides 434.8 N. Choose this model when you need a spring-open, air-close mechanism that safely fails to the extended position on air loss. A minimum of 0.2 MPa is required to overcome the return spring. The CM round-end back cover suits compact direct mounting, and you can add LB foot or TC trunnion brackets. For position feedback, select the -S magnet variant.
Quick checklist
It provides a net pull of 266.8 N at 0.5 MPa and 405 N at 0.7 MPa. You must supply at least 0.2 MPa to overcome the internal spring, with a maximum operating pressure of 1.0 MPa.
No. The spring constantly drives the rod to the fully extended position. It cannot hold a mid-stroke load; for that you need a double-acting MF cylinder with an external rod lock.
