The AirTAC Airtac MACJ Stainless Steel Mini Adjustable Cylinder MACJ16X60-10S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø16mm bore and 60mm 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.
Where only a small final adjustment matters, the 10 mm window on this 60 mm stroke cylinder does the job with minimal lost travel. It stays double-acting with variable cushions at each end, and the 16 mm bore produces 100.5 N push against 86.4 N pull at 0.5 MPa - up to 140.7 N when supply reaches 0.7 MPa. Working band is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) at 30-800 mm/s.
The round stainless barrel rivets to aluminium covers for a sealed, washdown-friendly shell, and the 6 mm rod is hard-chrome plated to 20 um for smooth seal running. Every unit carries its piston magnet from the factory, so CMSG / DMSG / EMSG sensing costs no option surcharge. Derate for real work: about 60 N of push at 0.5 MPa, enough to raise some 5 kg on a vertical axis while holding half the rating in reserve.

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 | 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.

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.
60 mm of reach presses labels flat while the 10 mm window compensates for carton height drift without touching the bracket.
100.5 N push at 0.5 MPa slides PCB trays into a nest, and the built-in magnet with a CMSG switch verifies full seat each cycle.
Stainless construction handles condensation inside unheated enclosures where painted bodies rust, cycling latches all day at low force.
At 16 mm this is the lightest MACJ; the next steps are bore 20 at 157.0 N and bore 25 at 245.3 N push, both at 0.5 MPa. With 60 mm of travel the rod is still short, but keep side loads off it anyway - use I or Y knuckles where the tool must swivel. The 10 mm adjuster shortens extension only and will not lock the rod against drift when air fails; choose FA flange or LB foot mounting and PT (blank), G or NPT ports.
Quick checklist
Yes: 16 mm bore, 6 mm rod, M5x0.8 ports, 60 mm stroke with a 10 mm extend-trim window. Forces are 100.5 N push / 86.4 N pull at 0.5 MPa and 140.7 N push / 120.9 N pull at 0.7 MPa, peaking at 20.5 kgf theoretical at 1.0 MPa. Pressure 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), speed 30-800 mm/s, double-acting with two-way cushioning.
No. The stop screw simply limits how far the rod extends, so with 60 mm of base travel it sets the end point only - it is not a mid-stroke lock or brake. If supply fails the piston drifts freely, so for suspended loads add a locking valve or a separate mechanical catch.
