The AirTAC Airtac MAC Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MAC25X210SU 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.
A 25 mm bore, a 210 mm stroke and a flat-end U back cover define the MAC25X210SU, a cushioned double-acting mini cylinder from AirTAC. Expect 245 N push and 206 N pull at 0.5 MPa, climbing to 343 N at 0.7 MPa; the theoretical peak is 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The stainless barrel resists washdown better than painted bodies, and the hard-chrome plated 10 mm rod keeps seal wear low over long travels. The standard magnet works with CMSG / DMSG / EMSG reed switches. For lifting duty, 245 N equals about 25 kg theoretical, so with a 2:1 margin size vertical loads near 12 kg.

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.

| 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.
Pressing labels or gaskets onto pump housings on a small bench press; 245 N at 0.5 MPa seats adhesive parts cleanly.
Opening a sliding machine-guard door across 210 mm; the flat-end U cover bolts flush to the guard frame.
Driving the locking latch on mobile warehouse shelving, with an EMSG switch confirming full extension.
Compare against the 20 mm bore (157 N push at 0.5 MPa) for small forces or the 32 mm bore (402 N) for heavier parts. The flat-end U cover mounts flush to a plate, with SDB pivot or LB foot brackets as alternatives, and the built-in magnet means CMSG / DMSG / EMSG switches need no special order. Without air the rod sits wherever load and friction leave it - add a pilot check valve for position holding. Across 210 mm of stroke, keep thrust in line with the bore axis; bending the 10 mm chrome rod shortens seal life fast.
Quick checklist
Push 245 N and pull 206 N at 0.5 MPa; push 343 N and pull 288 N at 0.7 MPa; 50 kgf theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa. Proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), working range 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), temperature -20 to +70 C, speed 30-800 mm/s, 10 mm rod, 1/8" ports.
No. The cushioning is air, not a lock - when pressure drops or the valve centres, the rod drifts. Fit a rod lock or pilot check valve where a hanging or held load matters. For stopping shock, use the variable cushions: start with the needle screws open and close them gradually until the 210 mm travel lands cleanly.
