The AirTAC Airtac MAC Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MAC25X130SCA is a genuine double acting + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 130mm 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.
A riveted stainless round barrel and a hard-chrome plated 10 mm rod make the MAC25X130SCA a washdown-friendly mini cylinder for damp corners of a packaging line. The 25 mm bore is double acting - air drives the rod both ways - and 0.5 MPa delivers 245.3 N on extend while 206.1 N pulls it back. Aluminium-alloy covers are rolled onto the tube, so the sealed body shrugs off splash where painted minis rust.
Plan on roughly 147 N of actual work at 0.5 MPa rather than the full rating - enough headroom for a light clamp or a small feeder gate. Needle screws at each end set a variable air cushion, so cycle speed can climb toward 800 mm/s without the covers taking a hammering. The piston magnet is fitted as standard equipment, and the CA pivot back cover swings on a pin mount straight out of the box.

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 130 mm swing arm on a secondary packaging conveyor; about 147 N of usable push at 0.5 MPa flips empty cartons between lanes all shift long.
Raises 10 kg trays between filler levels - the vertical margin on this bore works out near 12 kg with a 2:1 reserve, and the stainless barrel shrugs off daily hose-down.
CA pivot lets the clamp follow a swinging latch plate; 245.3 N at 0.5 MPa holds aluminium housings steady through a drilling cycle.
Need less? The 20 mm bore delivers 157.0 N at 0.5 MPa; need more? The 32 mm bore reaches 402.2 N. Over a 130 mm stroke keep the load aligned - side forces bend the 10 mm rod and score the barrel - or add external guiding. When air is lost or the valve centres, the rod drifts freely; nothing in a bare MAC locks it, so fit a rod lock or pilot check valve for held loads. Because the magnet is built in, CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches clip on without a special-order piston.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa the 25 mm bore pushes 245.3 N and pulls 206.1 N; at 0.7 MPa those rise to 343.4 N and 288.5 N. Theoretical peak is about 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Ports are 1/8", rod thread M10x1.25, rod diameter 10 mm, and the 130 mm stroke sits well inside the 500 mm standard ceiling for this bore.
Yes. The variable air cushion at both ends ships backed off; open the needle screws gradually while cycling so end-of-stroke shock fades without slowing mid-stroke. Speed range is 30-800 mm/s and supply pressure runs 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi).
