The AirTAC Airtac MAC Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MAC25X115SCA is a genuine double acting + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 115mm stroke, 1/8" 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.
MAC25X115SCA runs a 115 mm stroke on the 25 mm bore, delivering 245.3 N forward and 206.1 N back at 0.5 MPa and 343.4 N forward at 0.7 MPa. The CA pivot back cover lets the rod follow a swinging link or lever arm without add-on brackets.
Inside, a two-way piston seal doubles as a grease reservoir, cutting wear on long strokes like this one. Air cushions at both ends absorb the extra momentum a 115 mm stroke builds up. Vertically, the 245.3 N push equates to about 25 kgf, so halving for margin gives roughly 12 kg of lift at 0.5 MPa.

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 | 245 N | 206 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 344 N | 289 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 50 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.
A 115 mm stroke and 245.3 N push peel slip sheets or kick empty pallets clear in a small warehouse cell.
About 12 kg of vertical lift at 0.5 MPa raises a small assembly jig to working height on a pivot-mounted lever.
Drives a labelling press head over a long product on a packaging line, cushions easing contact at the far end.
Size against neighbours: the 20 mm bore delivers 157.0 N at 0.5 MPa and the 32 mm bore 402.2 N, so the 25 mm bore's 245.3 N is the middle choice. This cylinder will not lock in place when air pressure is gone - the rod drifts with the load - so specify a rod lock or pilot check valve for clamps that must stay shut. The CA pivot cover is matched by SDB pivot brackets, while FA flange and LB feet suit fixed frames. A 115 mm stroke magnifies side load, so mount external guides where tooling is not centred on the rod.
Quick checklist
Expect 245.3 N of push and 206.1 N of pull at 0.5 MPa, rising to 343.4 N of push and 288.5 N of pull at 0.7 MPa; the theoretical top for this bore is about 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Rod is 10 mm with an M10x1.25 thread and ports are 1/8".
Any MAC mounting can be fitted: FA flange, LB foot or SDB pivot bracket, plus I or Y rod knuckles for linkage work. Proof pressure is 1.5 MPa (215 psi) and operating pressure 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi). The magnet fitted as standard works with CMSG, DMSG and EMSG switches for end-of-stroke signalling.
