Airtac B01-MAC Series Special Purpose Cylinder B01-MAC20X200SU
The AirTAC Airtac B01-MAC Series Special Purpose Cylinder B01-MAC20X200SU is a genuine double acting + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø0mm bore and 200mm 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-MAC20X200SU
Flat, flush and simple to bolt against, the U cover on the MAC20X200SU lets you nest the cylinder straight into a fixture plate. Behind it sits the familiar MA recipe: a stainless tube, a hard-chromed 8 mm rod and aluminium covers rolled into place. At 0.5 MPa the 20 mm bore pushes 157 N, and the variable air cushion at each end absorbs the arrest so 200 mm strokes can close hard without hammering the covers.
Because the magnet is built in as standard, a CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switch rides the barrel for end or mid-stroke signals at no extra order. The sizing takeaway: derate to about 94 N of working push at 0.5 MPa, which corresponds to shifting around 9 kg horizontally on low-friction guides or lifting about 8 kg vertically at a 2:1 margin.

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-MAC20X200SU Is Used
PCB magazine elevator
Raises a circuit-board storage magazine 200 mm at an SMT line buffer, the cushion easing the magazine onto its stop without a rattle.
Belt tension take-up
Holds a short transfer belt taut by pulling an idler roller; the retract side still contributes 132 N at 0.5 MPa against spring load.
Jig clamp toggle
Swings a clamping lever on a small assembly jig, 200 mm of reach clearing the operator's hand between loading cycles.
Is the Airtac B01-MAC Series Special Purpose Cylinder B01-MAC20X200SU the Right Cylinder?
Force ladder for context: a 16 mm bore delivers 100.5 N push at 0.5 MPa and a 25 mm bore delivers 245.3 N - this 20 mm unit sits between them at 157 N. The 200 mm stroke is well inside the 500 mm standard ceiling, yet long thin rods bend; support the load externally instead of cantilevering it on the rod. Unpowered, the piston simply sits wherever the load leaves it, so add a rod lock or check valve when a held position matters. If the flat U end is not enough, FA flange, LB foot or SDB pivot mounts and I/Y rod knuckles complete the set. Ports are 1/8"; the rod thread is M8x1.25.
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-MAC20X200SU FAQ
At 0.5 MPa: 157 N extend, 132 N retract. At 0.7 MPa: 220 N extend, 185 N retract. The theoretical peak for the 20 mm bore is about 32 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Supply 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) of 40 um filtered air; proof pressure is 1.5 MPa (215 psi); speed range 30-800 mm/s; ambient -20 to +70 C.
Back both cushion needle screws fully open at commissioning, run the stroke, then close each one gradually until end-of-stroke bounce disappears. A needle shut too far can make the cylinder crawl or stall mid-motion.
