The AirTAC Airtac B06-MAC Battery-Specific Cylinder B06-MAC16X25SCA is a genuine double acting + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø0mm bore and 25mm 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.
Where a clamp or locating pin needs only a quick 25 mm step, the MAC16X25SCA keeps the envelope tiny while still offering full cushioned control. It is double acting on 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) filtered air, pushing 100.5 N and pulling 86.4 N at 0.5 MPa, with a variable cushion each end and the magnet already in the piston for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches.
Work with about 60 N of honest effort at 0.5 MPa rather than the full rating - roughly 5 kg of vertical lift with a 2:1 margin - and the action stays crisp through millions of short cycles. Construction is a stainless tube rolled into aluminium-alloy covers with a hard-chrome plated 6 mm rod, so the body resists corrosion in wash-prone cells, and the CA pivot back cover hooks into linkage mounts without adapter plates.

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.
| 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.

| 0 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×25 | Stroke length in mm. |
| -S | Built-in magnet for CMSG / DMSG / EMSG sensors (standard on MA series). |
| CA / U / CM | Back-cover type: CA pivot, U flat-end, CM round-end. |
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.
Raises a 25 mm locating pin before each machining cycle; the cushioned seat prevents pin rattle and a CMSG switch confirms full extension to the PLC.
Snaps a charging latch closed when an automated guided vehicle docks; 100.5 N at 0.5 MPa over-travels the latch spring and the stainless body survives dock dust and wash.
Advances a light clamp nose onto a machined part; the variable cushion lets operators raise cycling speed without the nose hammering home.
For a 25 mm step this bore is the natural pick; if the load later grows, a 20 mm MAC raises the push from 100.5 N to 157.0 N and a 25 mm bore to 245.3 N at 0.5 MPa. Keep in mind the rod is free when air is off - there is no internal lock - so a rod lock or check valve holds anything that must not fall. The CA pivot cover suits swing or cam linkages while FA flange, LB foot and SDB bracket cover fixed frames; M5x0.8 ports on PT threads are standard with G and NPT to order, and cycling runs 30-800 mm/s.
Quick checklist
Yes: 100.5 N push and 86.4 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 140.7 N push and 120.9 N pull at 0.7 MPa, and a theoretical peak of 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The rod is 6 mm with an M6x1.0 thread, ports are M5x0.8, the stroke is 25 mm, and proof pressure is 1.5 MPa (215 psi).
The CA pivot back cover on this model accepts clevis or linkage pins directly; add an SDB pivot bracket, or choose FA flange and LB foot hardware for fixed frames. Front I and Y rod knuckles protect the 6 mm rod against misalignment in clamp fixtures.
