Airtac B06-MAC Battery-Specific Cylinder B06-MAC16X225SCA
The AirTAC Airtac B06-MAC Battery-Specific Cylinder B06-MAC16X225SCA is a genuine double acting + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø0mm bore and 225mm 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-MAC16X225SCA
Stretching a 16 mm bore to a 225 mm stroke, the MAC16X225SCA holds 100.5 N of push at 0.5 MPa across the full travel and 86.4 N on return, still comfortably inside the 500 mm standard-stroke ceiling of this bore. Variable air cushions at each end ease the rod into its covers, so longer, faster strokes need not end in a bang.
The long, slender 6 mm rod is sensitive to side loads, so guide the part externally rather than leaning on the rod itself. In practice, budget about 60 N of working force at 0.5 MPa, which translates to a vertical lift near 5 kg once a 2:1 margin is kept. CA pivot eyes at the back cover swing on a clevis pin, and the built-in standard magnet pairs with CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches for mid-travel signalling.

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-MAC16X225SCA Is Used
Pushing vials off a takeaway conveyor
A 225 mm reach clears the full lane width in one stroke; about 60 N of practical force moves empty vials, and end cushions stop the pusher snapping back.
Advancing a probe into a test column
Long smooth travel with dual cushioning eases the probe down the column, while the built-in magnet and an EMSG switch confirm the full-depth position.
Ejecting reject blister packs into a chute
The CA pivot eye on a clevis link gives a forgiving swing into the chute mouth, and the stainless barrel survives the cleaning regime of a pharma packing line.
Is the Airtac B06-MAC Battery-Specific Cylinder B06-MAC16X225SCA the Right Cylinder?
Over a 225 mm stroke even a small side force bends the 6 mm rod, so add an external guide, bushing or rail for any laterally loaded job. If 100.5 N at 0.5 MPa is marginal for the payload, the 20 mm bore at 157.0 N is the next size up. Remember the cylinder does not retain position when air drops or the valve centres, so pair it with a rod lock or pilot check valve where the carriage must park. The CA pivot suits swing-link motions; FA flange, LB foot and SDB pivot brackets handle fixed frames.
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-MAC16X225SCA FAQ
The full 100.5 N push and 86.4 N pull at 0.5 MPa, rising to 140.7 N and 120.9 N at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Supply is air filtered to 40 um at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-800 mm/s, cushioned variably at both ends.
Alignment. Over 225 mm of travel, slight misalignment compounds into side load that can bend the 6 mm rod, so use the CA pivot on a clevis for swing motion or an FA flange / LB foot with an external guide for linear jobs. Ports are M5x0.8 and the rod thread is M6x1.0.
