The AirTAC Airtac MAC Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MAC50X65SCA is a genuine double acting + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 65mm 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.
A 50 mm bore with a pivot eye built into the CA back cover: the MAC50X65SCA gives 981.3 N push and 880.8 N pull at 0.5 MPa, rising to 1373.8 N push at 0.7 MPa, with 200.1 kgf as the theoretical peak. The 65 mm stroke covers typical pick-and-place or clamping moves.
The pivot lets the cylinder follow an arc without extra brackets, while the stainless rolled-on barrel and hard-chrome rod stand up to damp or washed-down surroundings. It is double acting with a variable air cushion at each end, and the built-in magnet is standard, so CMSG / DMSG / EMSG reed switches mount without special ordering. Budget roughly 589 N - six tenths of the rating - as your realistic working force at 0.5 MPa.

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.

| 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.
Mounted through its CA pivot eye, the cylinder drives a rotary gate arm on a bottling line, following the arc without a clevis bracket.
The 981.3 N push at 0.5 MPa advances sheet-metal blanks into a press feed via a pivoting finger linkage.
The pivot mount lets the cylinder swing a diverter arm across a curved belt section, cushion damping the swing at each end.
Size check: the 40 mm bore manages 628.3 N push at 0.5 MPa and the 63 mm bore reaches 1557.9 N, so this 50 mm sits squarely in between at 981.3 N. Air pressure alone moves the piston, so a centred valve means drift - fit a rod lock or pilot check valve to hold a load. The CA pivot eye takes care of arc-motion mounting on its own; FA flange, LB foot and SDB brackets are available, the magnet is already in the piston, and strokes beyond 500 mm are made to order.
Quick checklist
Push 981.3 N and pull 880.8 N at 0.5 MPa; 1373.8 N push and 1233.1 N pull at 0.7 MPa; 200.1 kgf theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa. Working range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-800 mm/s, double acting with variable cushion both ends.
It adds a pivot eye so the cylinder can swing with linkages and arc motions without buying extra clevis hardware. The body stays a stainless rolled barrel with a hard-chrome rod, and the built-in magnet remains standard for CMSG / DMSG / EMSG switches.
