The AirTAC Airtac B06-MAC Battery-Specific Cylinder B06-MAC16X125SCA is a genuine double acting + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø0mm bore and 125mm 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.
For a 125 mm reach in a 16 mm package, the MAC16X125SCA extends its hard-chrome plated 6 mm rod through a riveted stainless round barrel, pushing 100.5 N at 0.5 MPa and pulling 86.4 N back. The long stroke stays inside the 500 mm standard range, so it is a catalog item, not a special.
Working the cylinder at around 60 N instead of the full 0.5 MPa rating is a sensible target once friction and pressure dip are counted. Magnetic position sensing is built in as standard: CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches mount directly on the tube. The variable cushion at both ends deserves careful setting on this longer stroke so the load decelerates smoothly instead of cracking against the covers.

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.

| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 0 kgf | |
Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a safety margin.

MA-family variants: MA / MAC (double acting ±cushion), MSA / MTA (single acting push / pull), MAD / MACD (double rod ±cushion), MAJ / MACJ (adjustable stroke ±cushion), MAR (cushioned with integrated F/U mount). Mounting accessories: FA flange, LB foot, SDB pivot; plus I and Y knuckles. Thread PT (blank) / G / NPT.
Presses connector housings into a PCB test nest over 125 mm of controlled travel at up to 800 mm/s.
Swings a light sorting flap on a small parcel line via the CA pivot cover; 100.5 N turns the flap reliably.
Lowers a coding head onto cartons; cushioning eases contact so the print lands without smearing.
Compared with this 16 mm bore (100.5 N push at 0.5 MPa), a 20 mm MAC gives 157.0 N and a 25 mm gives 245.3 N - size up if the load edges past about 60 N. With 125 mm of travel, keep side load low and guide the load externally; a long thin rod bends easily under off-axis force. The CA pivot back cover pins straight into clevis-style linkages, or add FA flange, LB foot and SDB brackets. Note the rod will move if air is lost, since nothing in a standard MAC holds position - fit a rod lock or check valve where that matters.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa the cylinder pushes 100.5 N and pulls 86.4 N. At 0.7 MPa those figures climb to 140.7 N push and 120.9 N pull, with a 20.5 kgf theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa. Air ports are M5x0.8; rod thread M6x1.0.
The CA pivot back cover accepts a pivot pin directly, and FA flange, LB foot or SDB pivot brackets can be added. The stainless barrel and chrome-plated rod shrug off mild corrosion, so this 125 mm stroke suits damp or rinsed-down stations.
