Airtac MAC Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MAC50X600SCM
The AirTAC Airtac MAC Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MAC50X600SCM is a genuine double acting + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 600mm 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 MAC50X600SCM
With 600 mm of travel and a 50 mm bore, the MAC50X600SCM is a double acting round-body mini cylinder that pushes with about 981 N at 0.5 MPa, and a CM round-end back cover gives a clean pivot point straight off the rear of the body. A variable air cushion at both ends lets you dial the needle screws until the long stroke lands quietly instead of hammering the aluminium covers.
Its 600 mm travel sits beyond the 500 mm standard ceiling for this bore, so it is produced as a made-to-order stroke rather than pulled from shelf stock. The rolled stainless-steel barrel and hard-chrome plated rod shrug off washdown and outdoor damp far better than painted minis, and because the magnet ships standard, CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches clip on for position feedback. In round numbers the 981 N rating supports roughly 589 N of real work, which on a vertical axis means about 50 kg of 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.
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 MAC50X600SCM Is Used
Carton line diverter
Swings a 600 mm pusher across a conveyor lane to divert heavy cartons, where extend force reaches 1374 N at 0.7 MPa.
Sliding gate lift
Raises a steel sliding gate on a sawmill trim line; the CM round back cover accepts a pivot pin directly without a bracket.
Pallet squaring pusher
Squares palletised bag stacks before strapping, working within about 589 N of practical force at 0.5 MPa.
Is the Airtac MAC Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MAC50X600SCM the Right Cylinder?
Compare both directions before ordering: the 40 mm bore develops 628 N at 0.5 MPa and the 63 mm bore reaches 1558 N, so this 50 mm class covers mid-weight long travel. The 600 mm stroke is non-standard and built to order; over travel this long, guide the load externally, because side load will bend the 16 mm rod. Mount on an FA flange, LB foot or SDB pivot bracket to suit the frame, and remember the rod cannot hold position if air is lost - add a rod lock or pilot check valve where the load must stay put.
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 MAC50X600SCM FAQ
Extend force is 981 N at 0.5 MPa and 1374 N at 0.7 MPa; retract is 881 N at 0.5 MPa (1233 N at 0.7). Theoretical maximum is about 200 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It runs double acting with a variable cushion at both ends, accepts 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) of air filtered to 40 um, tolerates 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, moves at 30-800 mm/s, breathes through 1/4 inch ports and uses an M14x1.5 rod thread. The 600 mm stroke is non-standard and made to order, since catalogue strokes end at 500 mm.
No. The magnet is built into the piston as standard equipment, so CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches simply attach to the stainless barrel to flag rod position. Keep in mind the cylinder itself cannot park a load - if air bleeds off, the piston drifts - so use a rod lock or pilot check valve where holding matters.
