The AirTAC Airtac MAC Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MAC40X200SCM is a genuine double acting + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø40mm 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.
Where a 200 mm reach has to end in a bolted, fixed nose rather than a swinging joint, the MAC40X200SCM pairs the 40 mm AirTAC mini bore with a CM round-end back cover. It is double acting with a variable air cushion at both ends, driving 628 N of push and 528 N of pull at 0.5 MPa (72.5 psi), and up to 880 N of push at 0.7 MPa (101.5 psi).
The stainless round barrel and hard-chrome 16 mm rod shrug off washdown and mild corrosion, a genuine edge over painted minis in damp food plants or outdoor rigs. For vertical work, the 628 N push converts to a 64 kg lift on paper, so size the load at roughly 32 kg to keep a 2:1 margin. A magnet is already in the piston, so CMSG, DMSG and EMSG switches clip on with no special-order piston.

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 | 628 N | 528 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 880 N | 739 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 128 kgf | |
Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a safety margin.

| 40 | 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.

Compare before you commit: the 32 mm bore gives 402 N push at 0.5 MPa while the 50 mm bore jumps to 981 N, so 40 mm fits mid-range jobs around 300 N of real duty at 60% of rating. Air ports are 1/8 inch (PT blank, G or NPT optional). The piston is free to drift the moment air is removed, so a pilot check valve or rod lock is the answer wherever the 200 mm stroke must stop and stay. The CM cover takes straight bolted fixings; add an FA flange, LB foot or SDB bracket if the machine needs one.
Quick checklist
Push is 628.3 N and pull 527.8 N at 0.5 MPa; at 0.7 MPa those become 879.6 N and 738.9 N. Maximum theoretical force is 128.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa, and proof pressure is 1.5 MPa (215 psi).
No - the piston ships with its magnet installed as standard across the MAC series. Pick CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches and they detect the end positions straight away.
