The AirTAC Airtac MAC Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MAC50X750SCA is a genuine double acting + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 750mm 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 750 mm travel puts the MAC50X750SCA into long-stroke territory, so AirTAC builds this round-body mini around a stainless barrel that shrugs off the corrosion a painted body would collect over such a span. The hard-chrome plated carbon-steel rod runs through aluminium covers rolled onto the tube, sealing the 16 mm piston against damp plant air. Double acting with a variable air cushion at each end, it accepts 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) supply, tolerates 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure and cycles at 30-800 mm/s.
Force sits in the mid-heavy class: 981 N push and 881 N pull at 0.5 MPa, climbing to 1374 N push at 0.7 MPa. Treat about 589 N as the continuous working thrust - the margin keeps the long rod column and cushions healthy instead of hammering the covers. Hanging a load vertically, the bore equates to roughly 100 kg, so a 50 kg lift leaves a comfortable 2:1 factor. The piston magnet is standard, meaning CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches report position anywhere along the 750 mm run with no special-order piston.

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.

| 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.

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.
Spanning a 900 mm-wide belt, the 750 mm stroke shoves cartons fully off the lane with 981 N behind the push plate.
A vertical slide raises a 45 kg die carriage on every cycle, staying inside a 2:1 margin against the 981 N push rating.
Stainless barrel and chrome rod shrug off daily hose-down while the CA pivot back cover follows the gate's arc.
Downsize to a 40 mm bore (628 N push at 0.5 MPa) for lighter jobs, or upsize to 63 mm (1558 N) when the load demands it. This plain MAC drifts as soon as supply drops or the valve centres, so park suspended loads only with a rod lock or pilot check valve in the line. Mounting pairs the CA pivot back cover with FA flange, LB foot or SDB brackets on the body. At 750 mm of stroke, keep the payload externally guided - side loads on the 16 mm rod become a bending risk at this length.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 981 N and pulls 881 N; at 0.7 MPa, 1374 N push and 1233 N pull. Theoretical peak at 1.0 MPa is 200 kgf. Air ports are 1/4" PT (G or NPT optional), the rod thread is M14x1.5, and the 750 mm stroke is a made-to-order length above the 500 mm standard for this bore.
Wind both cushion needle screws fully open before start-up, then close them gradually until the 750 mm travel decelerates smoothly at each end. The cushion is variable air, not a fixed bumper, and it works across the full 30-800 mm/s speed window. Never treat it as a brake - without air the rod drifts freely.
