The AirTAC Airtac MAC Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MAC40X600SCALB is a genuine double acting + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 600mm 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.
Foot-mounted long-stroke work is the brief for the MAC40X600SCALB: a 40 mm bore, 600 mm stroke MAC with an LB foot bracket added to its CA pivot cover. Thrust at 0.5 MPa is 628 N, and budgeting 377 N for actual work leaves headroom equal to lifting about 32 kg vertically. As the stroke exceeds the 500 mm standard for bore 40, the cylinder is cut to order.
The body is a rolled stainless tube with a hard-chrome plated rod - construction that survives humid cellars, outdoor gates and food-line washdown where painted minis pit. Its magnet is included as standard equipment, so CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches bolt on for travel confirmation, while needle-screw cushions trim end-of-stroke shock across the 30-800 mm/s speed band. Air supply is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) through 1/8 inch ports.

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.

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.
Drives a slide gate under a stone-screening chute, foot-mounted so the long body stays square to the gate slot.
Clamps aluminium extrusion against a CNC saw fence over a 600 mm grip span before the blade enters.
Helps fold and unfold the lip plate on a warehouse dock leveller, cushioned to land the plate softly.
Step down to the 32 mm bore (402 N at 0.5 MPa) for lighter pushing or up to the 50 mm bore (981 N) when the load grows. Position is not retained: cut the air and the 16 mm rod slides under any attached load, so specify a rod lock or pilot check valve where holding matters. The foot keeps the body steady on long runs, but guide the load externally so lateral force never loads the rod sideways.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa the 40 mm piston pushes 628 N and pulls 528 N, rising to 880 N of push at 0.7 MPa; theoretical maximum is 128.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Proof pressure is 1.5 MPa (215 psi) against a working band of 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi).
The LB foot bracket fixes the cylinder body to the machine frame, keeping a 600 mm stroke from twisting under load, while the CA cover still offers a pivot for the rod-side attachment. Other MAC options - FA flange, SDB pivot bracket, U or CM covers, G or NPT threads - can be specified on the same order.
