Airtac B06-MAC Battery-Specific Cylinder B06-MAC16X175SCM
The AirTAC Airtac B06-MAC Battery-Specific Cylinder B06-MAC16X175SCM is a genuine double acting + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø0mm bore and 175mm 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 B06-MAC Battery-Specific Cylinder B06-MAC16X175SCM
The MAC16X175SCM takes AirTAC's riveted round-body design and gives it a 175 mm reach with a rounded CM back cover for pin-mounted linkages. Double acting and variably cushioned at both ends, it runs on a stainless barrel with hard-chrome plated 6 mm rod - a pairing that outlasts painted minis wherever moisture, washdown or outdoor exposure is routine.
Push output at 0.5 MPa (72 psi) is 100.5 N on clean, filtered air between 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi). Treating about 60 N as the everyday rating leaves plenty of margin, and even that derated figure hoists roughly 5 kg vertically. Cycle it anywhere from 30-800 mm/s, let the cushions absorb the end-of-stroke shock, and rely on the built-in magnet to feed position data to CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches with no special-order piston.

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 B06-MAC Battery-Specific Cylinder B06-MAC16X175SCM Is Used
Dip-probe lowering station
Lowers a conductivity probe into rinse tanks on a small plating line; about 5 kg of vertical lift capacity with margin covers the probe and carrier, and the stainless body tolerates acid mist.
Tray lane changeover pusher
Swings a pusher link over to divert trays between two lanes on a bakery line, using the CM pivot end so the link's arc matches the 175 mm stroke.
Pipette rinse cycling
Drives a rinse head up and down over beakers in a water lab; 100.5 N at 0.5 MPa is far above the head's weight, and dual cushioning stops bobbing at each end of the travel.
Is the Airtac B06-MAC Battery-Specific Cylinder B06-MAC16X175SCM the Right Cylinder?
Bore 16 sits at the bottom of the MAC range, so when 100.5 N at 0.5 MPa is not enough, move to bore 20 (157 N) or bore 25 (245.3 N). The CM round-end cover carries a swing pin directly; FA flange, LB foot and SDB pivot brackets cover fixed and pivoted frames alike. Air alone sets the position here - vent the valve and the load is free to move - so add a rod lock or pilot check valve where a station must hold. Because the 175 mm stroke makes a slender 6 mm column, keep the rod in line tension or compression and take side loads on external guides.
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 B06-MAC Battery-Specific Cylinder B06-MAC16X175SCM FAQ
Extend force at 0.5 MPa is 100.5 N and retract is 86.4 N; at 0.7 MPa it delivers 140.7 N and 120.9 N, topping out at 20.5 kgf theoretical at 1.0 MPa. The air port is M5x0.8, the rod thread is M6x1.0 on a 6 mm rod, and speed spans 30-800 mm/s.
Back both cushion needle screws off before start-up, then close them a turn at a time until the 175 mm stroke ends quietly. The cushion is variable air, not a mechanical bumper, and it is adjustable independently at each end.
