The AirTAC Airtac B52-MA Copper-Free Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder B52-MA16X110SCA is a genuine double acting standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø0mm bore and 110mm stroke, PT/G air ports and a stainless-steel barrel with a hard-chrome-plated rod for reliable, mildly corrosion-resistant service.
With a 16 mm bore and 110 mm stroke, the MA16X110SCA is AirTAC's compact double-acting round-body mini cylinder finished with a CA pivot back cover and fixed anti-impact bumper pads. Air extends and retracts the 6 mm hard-chrome plated rod; ports are M5x0.8 and the rod thread is M6x1.0. At 0.5 MPa this bore delivers 100.5 N in push and 86.4 N in pull, climbing to 140.7 N push at 0.7 MPa. Plan on roughly 60 N of usable push at 0.5 MPa, or about 5 kg of vertical lift with a 2:1 margin - a realistic match for small vials, caps, sensors and light fixtures. The riveted body pairs a high-precision stainless-steel barrel with aluminium-alloy covers, so it shrugs off mild corrosion in damp, food or outdoor spots where painted minis fail. Every MA cylinder carries a built-in magnet as standard, letting CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches clip on without a special piston. It runs at 30-800 mm/s on clean dry air filtered to 40 um, from 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), with fixed bumpers softening stroke-end impact - the adjustable air cushion remains the territory of the MAC family.

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.

| 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.
The 100.5 N push at 0.5 MPa and 110 mm reach suit sliding a shutter over a sampling port on analytical or bottling lab equipment, with the magnet and a CMSG switch confirming the gate is fully open or closed.
On pharmaceutical packaging lines the stainless barrel tolerates frequent wipe-downs while about 60 N of usable push indexes small trays of vials between filling stations.
Linked through the CA pivot eye with an SDB bracket, the cylinder lifts about 5 kg vertically with margin - enough to actuate a light toggle clamp on electronics assembly jigs.
Bore 16 is the smallest MA bore, so if 100.5 N push at 0.5 MPa feels thin for the job, step up to the 20 mm bore (157 N push at 0.5 MPa) rather than over-pressurizing. The 6 mm rod on a 110 mm stroke is flexible - keep side loads off the rod and guide the payload externally. Remember this cylinder is free-drifting: once the valve centres or air is lost, the piston settles under load, so add a rod lock or pilot check valve wherever a position must be held. The CA pivot back cover pairs naturally with the SDB pivot bracket for swing links, while FA flange and LB foot options cover fixed mounting.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa the 16 mm bore gives 100.5 N push and 86.4 N pull; at 0.7 MPa it reaches 140.7 N push and 120.9 N pull. The theoretical maximum is 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Keep real working loads near 60 N at 0.5 MPa for margin, run the cylinder on air filtered to 40 um between 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), and expect 30-800 mm/s travel over the 110 mm stroke.
The MA16X110SCA's stainless round barrel plus hard-chrome plated carbon-steel rod shrug off the mild corrosion and washdown that eat painted-steel mini cylinders, which matters in food, lab and outdoor cells. The bumper pads at each stroke end are fixed rubber decelerators, not an adjustable air cushion, and the rolling-packed riveted body keeps the envelope tight for tight machine layouts.
