Cylinders ISO 6432 Stainless SteelMX Series
All-stainless steel construction for sterile environments, chemically aggressive conditions, and frequent washdowns.
The ISO 6432 pneumatic micro-cylinders of the MX Series are manufactured by Airwork with fully stainless steel components (barrel, end-caps, and piston rod). Engineered for applications in industries where hygiene, corrosion resistance, and durability under extreme conditions are mandatory requirements, they deliver maximum reliability and complete dimensional interchangeability according to international standards.
Key Construction Features:
-
All-Stainless Steel Construction: Barrel and end-caps made of AISI 304 stainless steel (or AISI 316 upon request) for total resistance to atmospheric and chemical agents.
-
AISI 316 / 303 Stainless Steel Piston Rod: Ground and rolled for maximum seal performance, reducing seal wear and preventing pitting corrosion.
-
Hygienic and Washdown Compatibility: Designed without crevices to prevent dirt and bacteria accumulation and to withstand high-pressure washdowns with aggressive detergents.
-
Special Certified Seals: Available with high/low-temperature seals and configurations approved for food-contact applications.
-
Integrated Magnetic Provision: Ready for position sensing via compatible external sensors.
Why Choose the MX Stainless Steel Series: Maximum Hygienic and Chemical Resistance
In food processing, pharmaceutical, chemical, and marine production lines, traditional cylinders with aluminum end-caps are prone to oxidation, pitting, and premature wear caused by sanitizing agents or saline environments. The MX Stainless Steel Series addresses these critical issues:
-
Corrosion and Contamination Prevention: The use of stainless steel eliminates the risk of surface coating flaking and rust formation, safeguarding process purity.
-
Resistance to Sanitization Processes (CIP/SIP): Seals and materials withstand high temperatures and the corrosive action of acids, caustic soda, and solvents used in industrial washdowns.
-
Consistent Mechanical Reliability: The mechanical crimping between the barrel and end-caps ensures a compact, monolithic structural hold even under continuous thermal fluctuations
