The AirTAC Airtac MAC Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MAC50X200SU is a genuine double acting + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 200mm 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.
Flat-ended and ready to bolt through, the MAC50X200SU swaps the pivot cover of other MAC variants for a U flat-end back cover suited to rigid, fixed mounts. The 50 mm double acting barrel develops 981 N of push and 881 N of pull at 0.5 MPa - 1374 N at 0.7 MPa - across a 200 mm stroke, with a variable air cushion on both caps.
A riveted stainless barrel, aluminium covers and a hard-chrome plated rod shrug off the corrosion that ends painted mini cylinders outdoors or near coolers. The magnet comes built in as standard, so positioning with CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches adds no cost. Budget roughly 589 N of useful force at 0.5 MPa, or count on about 50 kg of vertical lift with a 2:1 margin.

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 | 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.
| MAC | Standard round-body mini cylinder (double-acting, variable cushion). |
|---|---|
| 50 | 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.
Holds a filler-vial gate closed until a tray indexes; the flat-end cover bolts flush to the machine plate through the full 200 mm stroke.
Slides test racks into a humidity chamber where painted cylinders corrode; stainless barrel and chrome rod shrug off damp cycling.
Drops a 200 mm guide pin into floor pockets so reach trucks align with the battery bay; 981 N re-seats the pin on every cycle.
If 981 N at 0.5 MPa is more than the job needs, the 40 mm bore delivers 628 N in a smaller body; if it falls short, the 63 mm bore pushes 1558 N. Both ends here are fixed-mount, so use an SDB pivot bracket if the mechanism needs a swinging joint. Air connections are 1/4" and rod thread is M14x1.5. Note that the piston coasts or drifts once the valve centres - a rod lock, not the cushion, is the answer for suspended loads.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa: 981.3 N extend and 880.8 N retract. At 0.7 MPa: 1373.8 N extend and 1233.1 N retract. Maximum theoretical force at 1.0 MPa is 200.1 kgf. Working pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-800 mm/s.
The flat back end presents a machined face that bolts straight against fixed surfaces, keeping the 200 mm stroke in line without swing. When the linkage must articulate, add an SDB pivot bracket or pick the CA or CM back-cover versions of the same bore. FA flange and LB foot mountings round out the series options.
