The AirTAC Airtac B06-MAC Battery-Specific Cylinder B06-MAC20X100SU is a genuine double acting + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø0mm bore and 100mm 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.
A U flat-end back cover makes the MAC20X100SU easy to fixture flush against a machine plate. Double acting with a variable air cushion at each end, it pushes 157 N and pulls 132 N at 0.5 MPa over its 100 mm stroke. Halve the 16 kgf thrust for a 2:1 margin and it lifts about 8 kg vertically, a handy figure when matching real part weights.
Inside is a rolled stainless barrel with a hard-chrome plated carbon-steel rod, so mild corrosion and washdown are non-events compared with painted-steel minis. Speed runs 30-800 mm/s on air at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi). Every unit carries its magnet as standard, letting CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches snap on for end-of-stroke signals.

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.

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.
Clamps small turned parts in a second-operation fixture, the U flat-end cover bolting flat to the jig body with 157 N of squeeze.
Opens and closes a swarf drawer under a CNC machining centre, about 8 kg of vertical lift capability handling the loaded drawer.
Nudges components past a vision camera on an electronics line, a CMSG switch on the standard magnet confirming full extension.
Compare before ordering: the 16 mm bore pushes 100 N at 0.5 MPa while the 25 mm bore manages 245 N, so step up if your load sits near the limit. Note that a plain MAC will not hold position when the valve centres - the rod coasts - so add a rod lock for held loads. Mount through the flat-end cover screwed to a plate, or bolt on FA flange, LB foot or SDB pivot hardware, and open the cushion needles fully before first cycling.
Quick checklist
Push at 0.5 MPa is 157 N and pull 132 N. At 0.7 MPa push reaches 220 N, and the theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 32 kgf. Pressure range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi); bore 20 mm, stroke 100 mm, rod thread M8x1.25, port 1/8 inch.
Needle screws at both ends bleed the cushion chambers. On commissioning back them fully off, then close gradually until end-of-stroke noise and recoil disappear, letting you raise speed toward 800 mm/s without hammering the covers.
