The AirTAC Airtac MAC Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MAC50X365SCA is a genuine double acting + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 365mm 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.
Long-stroke work in a small envelope is what the AirTAC MAC50X365SCA is cut out for: a 50 mm bore round mini cylinder with a 365 mm stroke, double acting and cushioned at both ends. Push force at 0.5 MPa is 981 N with 881 N on the return, stepping up to 1374 N at 0.7 MPa - a class worth about 200 kgf at the full 1.0 MPa rating. Mounted through the CA pivot cover, the body can swing with the mechanism instead of fighting it.
Because the barrel is a stainless tube riveted to the covers in one rolled joint, there are no loose fasteners to re-torque, and the tube itself tolerates damp shops, outdoor frames and washdown zones that pit painted bodies in a season. The 16 mm hard-chrome rod stays smooth across the whole 365 mm of travel, and the built-in magnet means CMSG / DMSG / EMSG switches can report any mid-stroke position. Sized honestly, about 589 N is a sensible working force at 0.5 MPa once friction and pressure dips are allowed for.

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.

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.
A pivot-mounted cylinder raises a stainless lid through a wide arc; with a 2:1 margin the 50 mm bore lifts about 50 kg vertically, so the linkage ratios work out with room to spare.
The 365 mm travel slides a pallet sideways across a transfer station, with both-end cushioning easing the load to rest instead of bouncing off hard stops.
A pivoting deflector routes cardboard versus plastic across the belt; the CA pivot cover lets the cylinder body follow the arm's arc directly, no custom bracket.
Compare before you commit: the 40 mm bore offers 628 N push at 0.5 MPa for lighter gates, while the 63 mm bore reaches 1558 N when a 365 mm arm carries real weight. Over a long stroke keep side loading low - the 16 mm rod will deflect if asked to guide the load, so run the load in slides and let the cylinder only push and pull. Note the piston holds nothing when air is removed: for a load that must stay put mid-stroke, fit a pilot check valve or a rod-lock version. FA flange, LB foot and SDB pivot brackets adapt the CA cover to almost any frame.
Quick checklist
The 50 mm bore gives 981 N push and 881 N pull at 0.5 MPa, rising to 1374 N push and 1233 N pull at 0.7 MPa; the 1.0 MPa theoretical peak is about 200 kgf. Pressure runs 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with speed from 30 to 800 mm/s. Ports are 1/4 inch and the rod thread is M14x1.5, both fixed by the 50 mm bore.
The pivot lets the cylinder body rotate with the driven arm, so the pin joints absorb misalignment instead of the 16 mm chrome rod bending over the long stroke. If the frame is fixed instead, use the U flat-end or CM round-end cover, or bolt on FA flange, LB foot or SDB pivot brackets - the mounting family is shared across the bore range.
