Airtac MAC Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MAC50X35SCA
The AirTAC Airtac MAC Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MAC50X35SCA is a genuine double acting + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 35mm 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 MAC50X35SCA
Short travel, full muscle: the MAC50X35SCA moves its rod just 35 mm, yet the 50 mm bore still generates 981.3 N extend and 880.8 N retract at 0.5 MPa, rising to 1373.8 N at 0.7 MPa and 200.1 kgf theoretical at 1.0 MPa. Air powers both strokes, and the variable cushion at each end takes the snap out of a very quick, compact cycle.
The riveted stainless round body with its hard-chrome rod suits clamp fixtures exposed to cutting fluid or washdown, places where painted minis corrode fast. Because the magnet comes fitted, CMSG, DMSG and EMSG switches confirm clamp closed or open without ordering a sensed variant. For clamp sizing, treat about 589 N as the practical hold force at 0.5 MPa - think of it as gripping roughly 50 kg against gravity 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.
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 MAC50X35SCA Is Used
Weld-cell swing clamp
Clamps sheet-steel panels in a weld jig; 981 N at 0.5 MPa resists weld shrinkage while the magnet feeds clamp status straight to the PLC.
Crimp press anvil
Repeats a 35 mm crimp on cable lugs; cushioned ends stop the anvil hammering the base at high cycle rates.
Chute divert flap
Flips a diverting flap between two packing lanes; the pivot mount lines up naturally with the flap hinge axis.
Is the Airtac MAC Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MAC50X35SCA the Right Cylinder?
Neighbouring bores for comparison: the 40 mm MAC holds 628.3 N at 0.5 MPa and the 63 mm bore 1557.9 N, so pick 50 mm when 35 mm of clamping travel and 981.3 N coincide. A plain cylinder cannot lock its position; if a fixture must stay clamped through an air drop, add a pilot check valve or rod lock rather than trusting the cushion. The CA pivot rear cover mounts on an SDB bracket or complements FA flange and LB foot plates, and I or Y rod knuckles suit toggle linkages. Where a second rod end or different cushion control is needed, the MACD and MACJ siblings in this family carry the same bore force figures.
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 MAC50X35SCA FAQ
Extend 981.3 N and retract 880.8 N at 0.5 MPa; extend 1373.8 N at 0.7 MPa; 200.1 kgf theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa. Operating window 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), rod speed 30-800 mm/s, bore 50 mm, stroke 35 mm, port 1/4 in PT.
No - the magnet ships as standard in the piston, so CMSG, DMSG and EMSG switches mount on the barrel straight away. Use them to prove the clamp is fully closed before the next cycle starts, with no special-order piston or retrofit kit required.
