Airtac B01-MAC Series Special Purpose Cylinder B01-MAC16X100SCA
The AirTAC Airtac B01-MAC Series Special Purpose Cylinder B01-MAC16X100SCA is a genuine double acting + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø0mm bore and 100mm stroke, PT/G air ports and a stainless-steel barrel with a hard-chrome-plated rod for reliable, mildly corrosion-resistant service. A variable air cushion at both ends lets you tune end-of-stroke deceleration on site.

About the Airtac B01-MAC Series Special Purpose Cylinder B01-MAC16X100SCA
With a 100 mm stroke on a 16 mm bore, the MAC16X100SCA pushes 100.5 N and pulls 86.4 N at 0.5 MPa, rising to 140.7 N at 0.7 MPa. It is a double-acting round-body mini cylinder with a variable air cushion at both ends, so end-of-stroke shock can be tuned out across the whole 30-800 mm/s speed range.
Stainless barrel and a hard-chrome plated 6 mm rod shrug off washdown and mild corrosion that kills painted mini cylinders. The CA pivot back cover swings straight into a linkage without extra brackets, and the built-in magnet takes CMSG / DMSG / EMSG switches as standard. For sizing, count on about 60 N of real working force at 0.5 MPa rather than the full 100.5 N rating.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC MA-series datasheet. Barrel: stainless-steel tube (round-body, riveted rolling-packed construction); piston rod: carbon steel with 20µm hard-chrome plating; covers: aluminium alloy. Thread options: PT (blank) / G / NPT. Every MA-series cylinder ships with a built-in magnet for CMSG / DMSG / EMSG position sensors.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø0mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 0 N | 0 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 0 N | 0 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 0 kgf | |
Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a safety margin.

Where the Airtac B01-MAC Series Special Purpose Cylinder B01-MAC16X100SCA Is Used
Swing clamp on assembly fixtures
The CA pivot swings with the clamp linkage while 100.5 N at 0.5 MPa holds an aluminium bracket square during screw driving.
Washdown gate on a bottling line
Stainless barrel and hard-chrome rod survive periodic hose-down while the 100 mm stroke opens a reject gate between bottle lanes.
Presence-check pusher
A CMSG switch confirms rod extension as the MAC nudges small housings into a vision-check station at up to 800 mm/s.
Is the Airtac B01-MAC Series Special Purpose Cylinder B01-MAC16X100SCA the Right Cylinder?
There is no smaller MA bore than 16 mm, so if the load outgrows the 100.5 N push (0.5 MPa) step up to the 20 mm MAC at 157 N under the same pressure. Supply air at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi); proof pressure is 1.5 MPa (215 psi). The MAC coasts freely once air is removed, so fit a rod lock or pilot check valve when the rod must stay put. Match the CA pivot cover with an FA flange, LB foot or SDB pivot bracket and an I or Y rod knuckle to suit the linkage.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT / G / NPT)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) is standard for sensors
- ✓ Back cover (CA/U/CM) & mount (FA/LB/SDB)
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Do not dismantle the riveted front/back covers.
- check On first run, back off the cushion screws and release gradually.
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac B01-MAC Series Special Purpose Cylinder B01-MAC16X100SCA FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 100.5 N and pulls 86.4 N; at 0.7 MPa those figures rise to 140.7 N and 120.9 N. Theoretical maximum on the 16 mm bore is 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The CA end carries a pivot that follows the load through a swing linkage, so no adapter bracket is needed. Because the magnet ships built in, CMSG / DMSG / EMSG switches report end positions without special ordering. Body mounts - FA flange, LB foot, SDB pivot - fix the round barrel to the machine.
