The AirTAC Airtac MAC Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MAC63X80SCM is a genuine double acting + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 80mm 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.
With a 63 mm bore and 80 mm stroke, the MAC63X80SCM sits at the top of the MAC cushioned mini range, pushing 1558 N at 0.5 MPa and about 2181 N at 0.7 MPa while keeping a compact round-body footprint. Air drives the piston both ways, and a variable air cushion at each end soaks up end-of-stroke shock so heavier payloads can cycle faster without hammering the covers.
The riveted body pairs a stainless-steel barrel with a 16 mm hard-chrome-plated rod, so it shrugs off mild corrosion and washdown in damp or food-plant spots that would pit painted minis. Every cylinder ships with a built-in magnet, meaning CMSG / DMSG / EMSG switches clip on without a special-order piston. In practice, treat the 1558 N push rating as roughly 935 N of real work at 0.5 MPa - plan jig and payload weights around that figure and the cylinder keeps margin for pressure drop.

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 | 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.

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.
1558 N at 0.5 MPa swings heavy stopper arms and diverters; the adjustable cushion drops the arm into position without a bang at every cycle.
With about 79 kg of vertical lift at a 2:1 margin, it raises loaded ingredient bins on washdown lines where painted mini cylinders corrode.
The 2181 N push at 0.7 MPa drives stamp heads on aluminium extrusions; the CM round-end pivot links straight to a toggle lever.
Bore 63 is the largest in this series: it delivers 1558 N at 0.5 MPa against 981 N from a 50 mm bore, so step down to a 50 only if your work force sits under about 600 N. It runs on filtered air at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi). Like any double-acting cylinder, the rod drifts when air is removed or the valve centres - add a rod lock or pilot check valve if the load must stay put. The CM round-end back cover takes a pivot pin directly, and FA flange, LB foot or SDB pivot brackets bolt on for fixed frames. At 80 mm the stroke is short, so side load on the 16 mm rod stays minimal.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 1558 N and pulls 1457 N; at 0.7 MPa the push rises to 2181 N. The theoretical maximum is 317.7 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The port is 1/4 in., the rod is 16 mm with an M14x1.5 male thread, and strokes up to 500 mm are standard, so 80 mm sits well inside the range.
It accepts a pivot pin directly, so swinging or linkage mounts need no extra bracket. On first run, back the cushion needle screws fully off, then open them gradually to tune end-of-stroke deceleration; the working speed range is 30-800 mm/s.
