Airtac MAC Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MAC16X75SCM
The AirTAC Airtac MAC Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MAC16X75SCM is a genuine double acting + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø16mm bore and 75mm stroke, M5×0.8 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 MAC Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MAC16X75SCM
A riveted stainless round barrel with a hard-chrome plated 6 mm rod, the MAC16X75SCM is a double-acting mini cylinder with a variable air cushion at both ends. At 0.5 MPa it pushes 100.5 N and pulls 86.4 N; at 0.7 MPa push rises to 140.7 N. Plan real work around 60 N of that 0.5 MPa push, enough to lift about 5 kg vertically with margin.
The CM round-end back cover gives a clean fixed mounting face without extra brackets, and the built-in magnet is standard, so CMSG / DMSG / EMSG switches clip straight on. The stainless barrel and plated rod shrug off mild corrosion and washdown far better than painted-steel minis, and the cushion needles let you tune arrival shock across the 30-800 mm/s speed range.

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 (Ø16mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 101 N | 86 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 141 N | 121 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 21 kgf | |
Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a safety margin.

Where the Airtac MAC Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MAC16X75SCM Is Used
Bottle ejection on a filling line
Kicks empty PET bottles off a conveyor at the 75 mm mark; 100.5 N is ample for a light container and washdown-friendly stainless handles the wet zone.
Sample slide handling in lab automation
Slides trays between test stations; the built-in magnet feeds CMSG switches for repeatable end-position confirmation on every stroke.
Small parts press-fit in electronics assembly
Seats connectors into PCB jigs with around 60 N of usable force, dialled smooth at the ends by the variable air cushion.
Is the Airtac MAC Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MAC16X75SCM the Right Cylinder?
Bore 16 is the light-duty end of the MAC range: stepping up to 20 mm gives 157 N push at 0.5 MPa and bore 25 reaches 245.3 N, so choose up if 100.5 N feels tight. Like every plain double-acting cylinder it drifts when air drops - add a rod lock or pilot check valve if the load must stay put. The 75 mm stroke is well inside the 500 mm standard range for this bore; keep side load off the 6 mm rod on longer travels. Ports are M5x0.8 and the rod thread is M6x1.0.
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 MAC Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MAC16X75SCM FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 100.5 N and pulls 86.4 N; at 0.7 MPa those rise to 140.7 N and 120.9 N. Theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is about 20.5 kgf for the 16 mm bore. Pressure range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof, and speed runs 30-800 mm/s.
The CM back cover presents a plain rounded fixed face, so you bolt it to a bracket without needing a pivot. The stainless barrel plus hard-chrome rod resists washdown and damp, and the standard-built magnet accepts CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches with no special-order piston.
