Airtac MAC Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MAC50X100SCM
The AirTAC Airtac MAC Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MAC50X100SCM 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 MAC50X100SCM
With a round-end CM back cover, the MAC50X100SCM keeps a clean, snag-free nose for fixed mountings while still delivering 981 N of push and 881 N of pull at 0.5 MPa. The 100 mm stroke is double acting and cushioned at both ends, and the package runs from 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) at 30-800 mm/s.
Scale the number before you size the frame: treat about 589 N as the honest working push at 0.5 MPa, equal to hoisting roughly 50 kg straight up with margin to spare. The stainless round tube, riveted aluminium covers and 20 um chrome-plated rod hold up in washdown corners where painted minis bloom with rust, and the standard-built magnet accepts CMSG, DMSG and EMSG switches out of the box.

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 MAC50X100SCM Is Used
Snap-fit press on an electronics bench
Presses connectors into PCB housings with about 589 N of controlled force, the cushion easing the final millimetre of travel.
Stack pusher in a bakery tray store
Nudges 45 kg tray stacks along greased rails in a bakery rack store; the stainless body shrugs off flour dust and washdown.
Valve actuation at a treatment works
Cracks open a small sluice gate on a filtered-water line, where the chrome-plated rod resists constant moisture outdoors.
Is the Airtac MAC Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MAC50X100SCM the Right Cylinder?
If 981 N at 0.5 MPa is more than the job needs, the 40 mm bore offers 628 N; if it falls short, the 63 mm bore lifts you to 1558 N. Remember the piston is free to coast when air is removed - for a load that must stay parked, pair this cylinder with a rod lock or check valve. FA flange, LB foot and SDB bracket options cover fixed mounting, and the CM round end keeps the tail clean where a pivot eye would snag.
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 MAC50X100SCM FAQ
At 0.5 MPa you get 981 N on extend and 881 N on retract; at 0.7 MPa those become 1374 N and 1233 N. The theoretical limit is about 200 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Ports are 1/4" and the rod thread is M14x1.5.
The barrel is a single stainless tube rolled into the aluminium covers, so there are no external bolts to work loose and no painted skin to chip in washdown. Paired with the hard-chrome rod and a piston seal that traps its own grease film, it suits damp, food and outdoor duties.
