Airtac B01-MAC Series Special Purpose Cylinder B01-MAC20X360SCM
The AirTAC Airtac B01-MAC Series Special Purpose Cylinder B01-MAC20X360SCM is a genuine double acting + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø0mm bore and 360mm 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-MAC20X360SCM
With 360 mm of travel in a 20 mm bore, this MAC pushes 157 N at 0.5 MPa and 219.8 N at 0.7 MPa as a double-acting cylinder with a variable air cushion at both ends. The CM round-end back cover keeps the tail clean for tight frames, and the cushion needles let you soften landings on every long run.
A riveted stainless barrel paired with a hard-chrome plated rod tolerates washdown and damp air where painted minis rust through. Every unit ships with a built-in magnet, so a CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switch bolts straight on. At 0.5 MPa expect about 94 N of honest working force once derated for friction, roughly an 8 kg vertical lift with 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-MAC20X360SCM Is Used
Carton-erector crossfeed
Slides the flap-fold head across a case sealing line; the 360 mm reach covers wide blanks at 157 N push.
Parcel sorter reject pusher
Kicks mis-scanned parcels off a main belt; the cushion at both ends stops the ram slamming at full extension.
Loom let-off adjustment
Trims warp tension by nudging the let-off roller; the 8 kg-class lift figure suits light fabric beams.
Is the Airtac B01-MAC Series Special Purpose Cylinder B01-MAC20X360SCM the Right Cylinder?
Need less force? The bore 16 MAC manages 100.5 N at 0.5 MPa; step up to bore 25 for 245.3 N. Bore 20 sits between them at 157 N push and 131.9 N pull. Ports are 1/8 inch and the rod thread is M8x1.25. Keep in mind the piston drifts if air drops - fit a rod lock or pilot check valve wherever the load must stay put on this 360 mm stroke.
A long 8 mm rod at 360 mm hates side loads: guide the mass externally or hang it on an SDB pivot bracket, and pick FA flange or LB foot to suit the frame. Pressure range 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), speed 30-800 mm/s.
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-MAC20X360SCM FAQ
At 0.5 MPa: 157 N push and 131.9 N pull. At 0.7 MPa: 219.8 N push and 184.7 N pull. The theoretical ceiling is 32 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Pressure window is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) and stroke speed runs 30-800 mm/s.
CM is the round-end back cover; combine it with FA flange, LB foot or SDB pivot bracket hardware. I and Y rod knuckles are available for the tooling side.
