Airtac MAC Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MAC50X100SCASDB
The AirTAC Airtac MAC Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MAC50X100SCASDB is a genuine double acting + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 100mm stroke, 1/4" 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.

About the Airtac MAC Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MAC50X100SCASDB
Fitted with an SDB pivot bracket, the MAC50X100SCASDB turns the 50 mm bore into an easy swinging actuator: 981 N push and 881 N pull at 0.5 MPa over 100 mm of cushioned stroke. The double-acting design works from 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) at 30-800 mm/s, with needle-adjustable air cushions at both ends that you back off before the first cycle.
Derate once in your head and you are done: about 589 N of dependable push at 0.5 MPa, which is the 981 N rating scaled for real work and roughly a 50 kg vertical lift at a 2:1 margin. The rolled stainless tube and hard-chrome 16 mm rod take humid, mildly corrosive air in stride, and the standard magnet means CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches mount without special ordering.

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.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø50mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 982 N | 881 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 1374 N | 1234 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 200 kgf | |
Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a safety margin.

Where the Airtac MAC Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MAC50X100SCASDB Is Used
Rotary indexing arm
Swings a 45 kg fixture plate through a short arc on a small assembly line; the SDB bracket carries the cylinder-side pivot.
Lid lift on a wash tank
Raises a hinged stainless lid on a food-grade soak tank, where the bare steel tube survives splash and steam better than painted bodies.
Carton stop at a mezzanine gate
Pushes a stop bar across a roller conveyor at the mezzanine lift, holding cartons back until the hoist deck is level.
Is the Airtac MAC Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MAC50X100SCASDB the Right Cylinder?
Between the 40 mm bore (628 N push at 0.5 MPa) and the 63 mm bore (1558 N), the 50 mm sits squarely in the 50-80 kg load band. Do not expect position holding - a centred valve or lost supply lets the load drift, so spec a pilot check valve or rod lock when the arm must stay put. The SDB bracket pivots the whole cylinder while the CA back cover handles the rod-side swing; FA flange and LB foot remain available if the layout changes.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT / G / NPT)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) is standard for sensors
- ✓ Back cover (CA/U/CM) & mount (FA/LB/SDB)
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Do not dismantle the riveted front/back covers.
- check On first run, back off the cushion screws and release gradually.
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac MAC Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MAC50X100SCASDB FAQ
At 0.5 MPa: 981 N extend and 881 N retract. At 0.7 MPa: 1374 N extend and 1233 N retract. The theoretical maximum is about 200 kgf at 1.0 MPa, from a 50 mm bore with a 16 mm rod and 1/4" ports.
Needle screws at both ends throttle the exhaust to decelerate the load over the last few millimetres. Start with them fully open, then close gradually until the 30-800 mm/s stroke lands without a bang. Cushions absorb shock only - they never lock the piston against drift.
