The AirTAC Airtac B06-MAC Battery-Specific Cylinder B06-MAC16X50SCA is a genuine double acting + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø0mm bore and 50mm 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.
Need a small cylinder that pivots? The MAC16X50SCA pairs a 16 mm stainless barrel with a CA pivot back cover, so the rod can swing through its arc without extra linkages. Double-acting air gives 100.5 N of push and 86.4 N of pull at 0.5 MPa, while variable cushioning at both stroke ends tames impact on faster cycles.
The rolling-packed body - stainless tube riveted to aluminium-alloy covers - stands up to washdown better than painted minis, and the hard-chrome plated 6 mm rod resists scoring in gritty settings. Every unit ships with a built-in magnet, so CMSG / DMSG / EMSG switches mount without special ordering. For sizing, budget about 60 N of working force at 0.5 MPa rather than the full 100.5 N rating, leaving headroom for friction and pressure dips.

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.
| MAC | Standard round-body mini cylinder (double-acting, variable cushion). |
|---|---|
| 0 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×50 | 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.
Tips or diverts blister packs between chutes; the pivot cover tracks the lever arc directly with no extra bracket.
Rotates a small rack of glassware for drainage; the stainless barrel tolerates detergent mist and repeated rinse cycles.
Swings a stop pin into position; cushion screws let the pin settle gently instead of slamming at end of travel.
Bore 16 is the entry point of the MAC range; the next size up, bore 20, lifts output to 157.0 N push at 0.5 MPa if your linkage needs more muscle. The CA pivot cover suits toggling levers and rotary linkages, while FA flange, LB foot or SDB pivot brackets handle fixed mounting and I or Y knuckles cover offset rods. Keep in mind the piston drifts when air pressure drops or the valve centres - use a rod lock or pilot check valve if the arm must hold position.
Quick checklist
Push at 0.5 MPa is 100.5 N and pull is 86.4 N. At 0.7 MPa the numbers are 140.7 N push and 120.9 N pull, with a theoretical peak of 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The cylinder runs on 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) filtered air at 30-800 mm/s.
No. The magnet is built in as standard on this model, so CMSG, DMSG and EMSG switches clip onto the barrel and report position straight out of the box.
