Airtac MACJ Stainless Steel Mini Adjustable Cylinder MACJ20X10-10S
The AirTAC Airtac MACJ Stainless Steel Mini Adjustable Cylinder MACJ20X10-10S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø20mm bore and 10mm stroke, 1/8" 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 MACJ20X10-10S
Ten millimetres of stroke with a full 10 mm trim window makes this a precision ejector: the stop screw sets the extend stroke to the exact point your fixture needs, and the variable cushion at both ends lands the piston gently. Inside is a riveted stainless barrel and a hard-chrome plated rod that shrug off washdown and humidity, running on 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) at 30-800 mm/s.
This 20 mm bore pushes 157.0 N and pulls 131.9 N at 0.5 MPa; at 0.7 MPa push rises to 219.8 N with a theoretical 32.0 kgf ceiling. Keep working force near 94 N at 0.5 MPa for long seal life, and figure about 8 kg of vertical lift when you halve the rating for margin. The magnet is part of the standard build, so CMSG / DMSG / EMSG switches drop straight on.

Theoretical Output Force (Ø20mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 157 N | 132 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 220 N | 185 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 32 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 MACJ20X10-10S Is Used
PCB fixture clamp
Clamps small circuit-board fixtures ahead of a soldering station; the 10 mm trim window sets clamp travel to the fixture height exactly.
Vibratory bowl kick-off
Flicks capped vials off a vibratory bowl track into a collection chute; the short, cushioned stroke stops parts being flung.
Nylon standoff press-fit
Presses nylon standoffs into appliance housings with 157 N at 0.5 MPa - light enough not to crack the boss, strong enough to seat fully.
Is the Airtac MACJ Stainless Steel Mini Adjustable Cylinder MACJ20X10-10S the Right Cylinder?
Need more than 94-157 N? The 25 mm bore reaches 245.3 N push at 0.5 MPa; going down, the 16 mm bore manages 100.5 N. At a 10 mm stroke, side load is the real enemy - keep the load guided or add an I or Y knuckle rather than letting the 8 mm rod bend. Foot (LB) and flange (FA) options plus the built-in magnet with CMSG / DMSG / EMSG compatibility make installation quick, and the trim stop parks position without holding a load once air is removed.
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 MACJ20X10-10S FAQ
Expect 157.0 N push and 131.9 N pull at 0.5 MPa, rising to 219.8 N push and 184.7 N pull at 0.7 MPa, with a 32.0 kgf theoretical maximum. That works out to about 94 N of dependable working force at 0.5 MPa. The fluid is air filtered to 40 um, the rod is 8 mm with M8x1.25 male thread, and ports are 1/8".
The riveted stainless barrel and hard-chrome plated rod resist the washdown, condensation and light chemicals that pit painted bodies - useful around food and lab equipment. The variable cushion at both ends also tames the short 10 mm stroke, and the standard magnet accepts DMSG / EMSG / CMSG switches without a special-order piston.
