The AirTAC Airtac MAC Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MAC25X200SCA is a genuine double acting + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 200mm 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.
Rated at 245.3 N push and 206.1 N pull on 0.5 MPa air, this 25 mm MAC covers a full 200 mm of travel and steps up to 343.4 N when supply pressure reaches 0.7 MPa. The operating band is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), the fluid is air filtered to 40 um, and both stroke ends carry an adjustable air cushion for cycle rates of 30-800 mm/s.
Under the skin it is a rolled, round stainless barrel with a hard-chrome plated rod, so washdown bays and damp outdoor cells do not chew it up the way they do painted minis. The 0.5 MPa rating translates to about 12.5 kg lifted vertically once a 2:1 lift margin is kept, or near 147 N of steady horizontal work. The CA back cover hinges on a clevis pin while the internal magnet feeds CMSG or DMSG switches for end-of-stroke confirmation.

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.

| 25 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×200 | Stroke length in mm. |
| -S | Built-in magnet for CMSG / DMSG / EMSG sensors (standard on MA series). |
| CA / U / CM | Back-cover type: CA pivot, U flat-end, CM round-end. |
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.
Ejects built cartons from an erector onto the takeaway belt; 245 N clears a full flap-open carton at moderate belt speeds.
Clamps steel brackets in a manual weld jig; the 200 mm stroke retracts clear of the torch path and the cushioned ends stop clamp slam.
Slides a blast-gate damper on a woodshop dust line, with a DMSG switch proving fully open before the extractor starts.
Bore 20 delivers 157.0 N at 0.5 MPa and bore 32 delivers 402.2 N, so this 25 mm sits between them for medium loads. A plain MAC releases its load the moment air drops, since the cushion damps impact but never locks the piston, so specify a pilot check valve or rod lock wherever the rod holds weight. Mount via FA flange or LB foot and hinge the CA cover on an I knuckle; with 200 mm of stroke, guide any lateral load externally to protect the rod from bending.
Quick checklist
Expect 245.3 N push and 206.1 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 343.4 N push and 288.5 N pull at 0.7 MPa, and a theoretical peak of 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Supply 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) through the 1/8 inch ports and keep the air filtered to 40 um.
The rolled stainless tube and hard-chrome plated rod resist the washdown chemicals and condensation that flake paint off ordinary minis, keeping food-side frames and damp cells rust-free. The riveted aluminium covers keep the body sealed and quiet over long cycles.
