Airtac MAC Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MAC63X100SCA
The AirTAC Airtac MAC Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MAC63X100SCA is a genuine double acting + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 100mm 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 MAC63X100SCA
The largest bore in the cushioned MAC family, 63 mm, gives this cylinder 1558 N of push and 1457 N of pull at 0.5 MPa - double acting, with a variable air cushion you can tune at both ends. The CA pivot rear cover accepts a clevis pin directly, and the rolled stainless barrel with its hard-chrome rod resists the corrosion that kills painted minis in wet plants.
For real-world sizing, treat about 935 N as the usable push at 0.5 MPa (60 percent of the rating); vertically that is roughly 79 kg lifted with a 2:1 margin. Speeds across the whole 30-800 mm/s range are on the table once the cushion needles are set. Every unit carries a standard piston magnet, so CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches mount without ordering options.

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 (Ø63mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 1559 N | 1458 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 2182 N | 2041 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 318 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 MAC63X100SCA Is Used
Scrap-chute compactor
Drives a compaction slide pushing aluminium offcuts into a bin; 935 N of usable force handles light swarf volumes at up to 800 mm/s.
Welding jig swing arm
Swings a 70 kg welding jig between load and weld stations on a clevis pin; the 79 kg vertical lift capability covers the jig with a 2:1 margin.
Slide gate on a dye tank
Raises a slide gate on a textile dye vessel in a steam-humid room; the stainless barrel and chrome rod stand up to constant moisture.
Is the Airtac MAC Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MAC63X100SCA the Right Cylinder?
Nothing in the MAC line out-muscles this bore - if 1558 N at 0.5 MPa is still short, the duty needs a larger series. Dropping to the 50 mm bore saves space but cuts force to 981 N push at 0.5 MPa. At 100 mm of stroke, keep bending loads off the rod: guide sliding parts on external rails rather than through the cylinder. The port is 1/4". The CA cover pairs with SDB pivot brackets or I / Y rod knuckles, or bolt the body with an FA flange or LB foot where the machine needs a fixed point.
Remember the piston coasts free when air drops - the cushion slows end travel but holds nothing, so fit a pilot check valve or rod lock where a load must wait through a power loss.
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 MAC63X100SCA FAQ
At 0.5 MPa: 1558 N push, 1457 N pull. At 0.7 MPa: 2181 N push, 2040 N pull. The theoretical ceiling is about 318 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-800 mm/s.
Yes - the piston magnet is standard equipment, so CMSG, DMSG and EMSG sensors fit straight onto the stainless barrel with no special-order piston. The built-in cushion needles at both ends also let you slow the last millimetres of travel on heavy stops.
