The AirTAC Airtac MAC Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MAC25X210SCA is a genuine double acting + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 210mm 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.
AirTAC built the MAC25X210SCA for travel: a 25 mm bore driving a 210 mm stroke from a riveted stainless round barrel. It is double acting with a variable air cushion at both ends, delivering 245 N on the extend stroke and 206 N retracting at 0.5 MPa, growing to 343 N push at 0.7 MPa.
The CA pivot back cover lets the body swing in linkage-style mounts without extra brackets, and the standard magnet accepts CMSG / DMSG / EMSG switches for end-of-stroke sensing. Vertical check: 245 N theoretically lifts 25 kg, so halving that for a 2:1 margin means about 12 kg per lift.

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.
Pivoting on its CA cover to push mislabeled cartons off a packaging conveyor; 210 mm of travel clears the widest lane.
Raising a 10 kg machine guard lid vertically, staying inside the safe 12 kg lift margin derived from the 25 kg theoretical figure.
Sliding sample trays between two lab stations; adjustable cushions stop the long travel without rattling the racks.
For lighter jobs the 20 mm bore gives 157 N at 0.5 MPa; heavier cycles need the 32 mm bore at 402 N. The CA back cover takes a pivot pin directly, with FA flange, LB foot or SDB brackets available for the body. Because air, not a spring, moves the rod, a de-energised valve leaves the piston drifting - fit a rod lock or pilot check valve to hold position. Over 210 mm of travel, guide the load externally so side force stays off the 10 mm rod.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa: 245 N push, 206 N pull. At 0.7 MPa: 343 N push, 288 N pull. Theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa: 50 kgf. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), speed 30-800 mm/s, ports 1/8", rod 10 mm. For a real load, plan on roughly 147 N of usable push at 0.5 MPa.
The CA back cover carries a pivot pin, so the body swings with the linkage instead of fighting misalignment - no extra bracket needed. Cushions at both ends are adjustable: open the needle screws before first run, then close them in small steps. The standard magnet also accepts CMSG / DMSG / EMSG switches for stroke-end signals.
