The AirTAC Airtac MAC Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MAC63X50SCM is a genuine double acting + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 50mm 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.
Pin it through the round-end CM back cover and this 50 mm stroke cylinder swings on a pivot while pushing 1557.9 N at 0.5 MPa (1457.4 N on retract), rising to 2181.0 N / 2040.3 N at 0.7 MPa. Double acting and cushioned at both ends, it stays gentle on tooling even at the top of the 30-800 mm/s range. Theoretical peak output is 317.7 kgf at 1.0 MPa, but sizing the application around 935 N of real work keeps it reliable year after year.
Inside the riveted stainless barrel sits a 20 um hard-chrome plated rod that shrugs off coolants and outdoor weather - a genuine edge over painted mini cylinders near washdown lines. The magnet is built in as standard equipment, so CMSG / DMSG / EMSG switches mount on the barrel without ordering options. The 50 mm stroke is a standard catalogue length; air enters through 1/4" ports at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), with 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure.

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 | 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.

|---|---|
| 63 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×50 | Stroke length in mm. |
| -S | Built-in magnet for CMSG / DMSG / EMSG sensors (standard on MA series). |
| 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.
Pivoting a latch that tips a 300 litre mixing vat for drain-down; the round-end cover takes the pivot pin directly and 1557.9 N at 0.5 MPa swings the loaded vat.
Kicking cartons off a sorting line into a strapping lane, where about 935 N of usable push at 0.5 MPa and a 50 mm stroke suit a fast diverter arm.
A pivoting stop catching sheet metal parts at a press outfeed, with a DMSG switch confirming the stop is up before the press is allowed to cycle.
For the same 50 mm stroke, the 50 mm bore manages 981.3 N push at 0.5 MPa, so step down if under about 1000 N is enough; there is no step up from 63 mm inside the MAC series. A dropped air signal lets the piston drift rather than holding its place - a rod lock or pilot check valve is the answer where position must persist. The CM round-end cover suits SDB pivot mounting, while FA flange and LB foot brackets handle rigid frames, and I / Y rod knuckles protect the 16 mm rod on linkage duty. The standard magnet supports CMSG / DMSG / EMSG switch feedback without any special-order piston.
Quick checklist
Expect 1557.9 N push and 1457.4 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 2181.0 N push and 2040.3 N pull at 0.7 MPa, and a theoretical peak of 317.7 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The cylinder is double acting with variable air cushions at both ends, runs 30-800 mm/s on 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) air, is proof tested at 1.5 MPa (215 psi), and uses 1/4" ports.
Yes - the CM round-end back cover accepts a pivot pin directly, and the SDB pivot bracket, FA flange or LB foot can be added for rigid frames. The built-in magnet is standard equipment, so CMSG / DMSG / EMSG switches bolt onto the barrel with no special-order piston needed.
