The AirTAC Airtac MAC Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MAC63X100SU 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.
Big-bore thrust in a compact round body: the MAC63X100SU runs a 63 mm piston over a 100 mm stroke, double acting with adjustable air cushions on both end covers and 1/4" PT ports. Expect 1557.9 N of push and 1457.4 N of pull at 0.5 MPa, growing to 2181.0 N and 2040.3 N at 0.7 MPa. The working pressure spans 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), with rod speeds anywhere between 30 and 800 mm/s.
A stainless barrel rolled onto aluminium covers, fitted with a 16 mm hard-chrome plated rod, keeps this cylinder honest in washdown zones and outdoor rigs that eat painted housings. Because the cushions are variable, you back the needle screws off on first run and close them gradually until the load decelerates smoothly instead of slamming. Straight lifting power works out near 159 kg from the 0.5 MPa rating - spec about 79 kg per cylinder for a sensible 2:1 margin. The U flat-end back cover bolts flat to a machine face, and the built-in magnet is ready for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches.

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.
Swings a divert gate on a beverage bottling line, pushing cases across the lane at up to 800 mm/s with a cushioned stop that keeps cartons square.
Kicks finished ceramic tiles off a forming press table; 2181.0 N at 0.7 MPa clears stubborn parts so operators never pry at hot ware by hand.
Rams full kegs sideways onto a brewery transfer rail; the U flat-end mounts flush against the conveyor frame with no adaptor plates needed.
If 1557.9 N at 0.5 MPa is more than the job needs, the 50 mm bore delivers 981.3 N in the same family; for heavier work there is no larger cushioned mini bore, so gang two cylinders or move up a series. Note the piston is not held when air drops or the valve sits mid-position - pair a rod lock or pilot check valve with any load that must stay parked. The flat U cover takes direct fixed mounting, while an SDB pivot bracket or LB foot covers the rest; minimise side load on the rod across the 100 mm travel.
Quick checklist
Push at 0.5 MPa is 1557.9 N and pull 1457.4 N; at 0.7 MPa those become 2181.0 N and 2040.3 N, and the theoretical maximum is 317.7 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure runs 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi).
It is machined flat so the cylinder bolts directly against a machine plate or bracket without adaptors; if the design needs a pivot, clip on an SDB bracket, or use FA flange and LB foot hardware.
