Airtac B06-MAC Battery-Specific Cylinder B06-MAC16X400SCM
The AirTAC Airtac B06-MAC Battery-Specific Cylinder B06-MAC16X400SCM is a genuine double acting + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø0mm bore and 400mm 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-MAC16X400SCM
A round-end CM back cover closes this 16 mm bore MAC, a riveted round-body mini cylinder whose stainless barrel and 20 um hard-chrome rod handle humid or lightly washed environments without paint to flake. Double acting with a variable air cushion at each end, it pushes 100.5 N and pulls 86.4 N at 0.5 MPa.
Working force at 0.5 MPa is realistically about 60 N once you stay clear of the limit - enough to index light carriers or trip small mechanisms. The standard-built magnet pairs with CMSG, DMSG and EMSG switches, and M5x0.8 ports plus an M6x1.0 rod thread keep fittings and tooling simple. Pressure range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi); speed 30-800 mm/s.

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-MAC16X400SCM Is Used
Slide extension on jeweller workholding
Extends a light vise jaw 400 mm on a benchtop engraving fixture; 60 N of practical force moves small metal pieces without marring them.
Tote locator pin in a compact AS/RS
Pins plastic tote positions on a small storage shuttle; the round-end CM cover takes a clevis pin for the reciprocating motion.
Drop gate on a tablet counter
Releases counted tablets down a chute; the variable cushion quiets the gate so nothing jumps at the bottom of travel.
Is the Airtac B06-MAC Battery-Specific Cylinder B06-MAC16X400SCM the Right Cylinder?
Need more than the 20.5 kgf theoretical ceiling of this bore? The 25 mm size reaches 245.3 N push at 0.5 MPa. Because the piston drifts whenever air pressure is removed, hold vertical loads with a rod lock or pilot check valve instead of relying on the cushion - the cushion only absorbs end-of-stroke shock. The CM cover suits clevis pinning on swinging linkages; FA flange and LB foot brackets cover fixed mounts.
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-MAC16X400SCM FAQ
Use 100.5 N push and 86.4 N pull at 0.5 MPa as the baseline, 140.7 N push and 120.9 N pull at 0.7 MPa for higher supply, and 20.5 kgf as the 1.0 MPa theoretical maximum. The 400 mm stroke is standard (limit 500 mm) and motion runs 30-800 mm/s on 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi).
The rolled stainless tube with its hard-chrome plated rod resists condensation, splashes and periodic washdown far better than painted-steel or plain aluminium minis, and there are no tie-rod joints to work loose. It is a self-contained riveted body, so sealing stays reliable even in damp production corners.
