Airtac MACJ Stainless Steel Mini Adjustable Cylinder MACJ16X100-40S
The AirTAC Airtac MACJ Stainless Steel Mini Adjustable Cylinder MACJ16X100-40S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø16mm bore and 100mm stroke, M5×0.8 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 MACJ Stainless Steel Mini Adjustable Cylinder MACJ16X100-40S
A 16 mm bore with a 100 mm travel and a 40 mm on-site trim window - the MACJ16X100-40S shortens its extend stroke wherever the job lands, backed by a variable air cushion at each end. At 0.5 MPa you get 100.5 N push and 86.4 N pull, climbing to 140.7 N push at 0.7 MPa. Working range 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), speed 30-800 mm/s.
Because the barrel is stainless and the 6 mm rod is hard-chrome plated carbon steel, this round-body mini takes humid cells, coolant mist and outdoor cabinets without flaking paint. Every unit ships with its magnet fitted, so DMSG or CMSG switches clip straight on. Practical number: budget about 60 N for actual work at 0.5 MPa - around 5 kg of vertical lift at a 2:1 margin.

Theoretical Output Force (Ø16mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 101 N | 86 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 141 N | 121 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 21 kgf | |
Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a safety margin.

Where the Airtac MACJ Stainless Steel Mini Adjustable Cylinder MACJ16X100-40S Is Used
Carton push-off
Nudges a folded carton off a filling station table into a collection chute, with the extend stroke trimmed across 40 mm to match the layout.
Fixture clamp
Clamps a PCB or small housing into a drilling jig; the stop screw lets technicians re-set clamp travel without new hardware.
Sample arm
Dips and retracts a small sampling probe into a liquid line at a bottling lab, with an EMSG switch confirming each stroke end.
Is the Airtac MACJ Stainless Steel Mini Adjustable Cylinder MACJ16X100-40S the Right Cylinder?
Compare before you buy: the next size up, bore 20, pushes 157 N at 0.5 MPa, and bore 25 reaches 245.3 N - but for tight envelopes, nothing beats the 16 mm footprint. Note that the mechanical adjuster sets the end of travel; it will not hold a load against gravity when supply drops. Choose FA flange or LB foot mounting, I or Y knuckles for pivoting links; with a 6 mm rod over 100 mm of stroke, minimize side load or guide the load externally. The built-in magnet makes position sensing a plug-on job.
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 MACJ Stainless Steel Mini Adjustable Cylinder MACJ16X100-40S FAQ
Use 100.5 N push and 86.4 N pull at 0.5 MPa, or 140.7 N push at 0.7 MPa; the theoretical peak is 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It runs 30-800 mm/s on 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) air, with the extend stroke trimmed anywhere in the 40 mm window.
Each end carries a variable cushion, so end-of-stroke shock is dialled out by the port-side restrictor rather than by slowing the whole cycle - useful when a 100 N class cylinder must cycle fast or carry a heavier load to a soft stop.
