Airtac MAC Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MAC63X15SCA
The AirTAC Airtac MAC Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MAC63X15SCA is a genuine double acting + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 15mm 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 MAC63X15SCA
Short stroke, big force: with only 15 mm of travel the MAC63X15SCA puts out 1557.9 N push and 1457.4 N pull at 0.5 MPa, and 2181.0 N at 0.7 MPa (317.7 kgf theoretical max at 1.0 MPa). That is enough to stake, clamp or kick a part with a hit rather than a long push - around 935 N of usable work force once a sensible margin is kept, and it will lift about 79 kg vertically at a 2:1 ratio. Double acting with a variable air cushion at both ends, running 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) at 30-800 mm/s.
The CA pivot back cover bolts straight to a clevis or trunnion bracket, so the body can follow a swing arm without shimming. Construction is a riveted stainless barrel with a hard-chrome plated rod and aluminium covers - no tie-rod bolts to slacken and no paint to flake in coolant mist. The magnet comes standard, so a CMSG / DMSG / EMSG switch reads both ends of the short stroke for cycle verification.

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 MAC63X15SCA Is Used
Pneumatic stake press
Peens or marks stamped parts in a bench fixture; 2181.0 N at 0.7 MPa delivers the hit inside a 15 mm window.
Weld fixture swing clamp
The CA pivot lets the body rock with the clamp arm, holding sheet steel through tack welds with about 935 N of working force.
Carton flap tucker
Folds a stubborn flap on a sealing head; the stainless barrel survives corrugate dust and morning washdown where painted bodies would bubble.
Is the Airtac MAC Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MAC63X15SCA the Right Cylinder?
Compare sizes before committing: the 50 mm bore pushes 981.3 N at 0.5 MPa if this force class is oversize, while 63 mm is the top of the MAC range. Do not rely on the cylinder to keep a clamp shut - with no air the piston moves freely, so add a rod lock or pilot check valve where the fixture must stay closed. The CA pivot cover pairs naturally with I and Y rod knuckles for swing arms; FA flange, LB foot or SDB pivot mounts remain available. Ports 1/4", rod thread M14x1.5, and the standard magnet accepts CMSG / DMSG / EMSG switches.
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 MAC63X15SCA FAQ
The 63 mm bore gives 1557.9 N push and 1457.4 N pull at 0.5 MPa, rising to 2181.0 N push and 2040.3 N pull at 0.7 MPa; the theoretical maximum is 317.7 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It runs on 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) at 30-800 mm/s with 1/4" ports.
No - every MAC ships with the magnet built in as standard, so CMSG / DMSG / EMSG reed or Hall switches drop straight onto the barrel. On a 15 mm stroke the two end positions sit close together, so set switch spacing carefully to avoid false signals.
