The AirTAC Airtac MACJ Stainless Steel Mini Adjustable Cylinder MACJ20X200-20S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø20mm bore and 200mm 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.
With a 20 mm trim window on the extend stroke, the MACJ20X200-20S lets machine builders dial in exact stop positions without reordering a fixed-stroke part. This double-acting AirTAC mini cylinder carries a variable cushion at each end and pushes 157 N (pull 131.9 N) at 0.5 MPa, climbing to 219.8 N (pull 184.7 N) at 0.7 MPa. The magnet comes fitted as standard for CMSG, DMSG and EMSG switches.
AirTAC rolls the aluminium covers and stainless block onto the barrel, giving a sealed round body that shrugs off condensation where painted housings blister. Size the duty around 94 N of genuine push at 0.5 MPa, or about 8 kg of vertical lift with a 2:1 margin; the theoretical peak is 32 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It runs 30-800 mm/s on 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) filtered air.

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 | 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.

|---|---|
| 20 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×200 | Stroke length in mm. |
| -20 | Adjustable stroke window (mm the extend stroke can be shortened on site). |
| -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.
Diverts small parcels at a sorter junction; 157 N at 0.5 MPa handles light cartons, and the 20 mm trim aligns the kicker to the belt edge.
Clamps aluminium brackets ahead of a drilling head; the cushion absorbs the clamp snap and 131.9 N of pull opens the jaws reliably.
Advances a labeling head onto boxes; the built-in magnet feeds an EMSG switch so the PLC knows the head reached its set position.
Compare before you buy: bore 16 delivers 100.5 N and bore 25 reaches 245.3 N at 0.5 MPa, so bore 20 with its 157 N covers mid-range pick-and-place jobs. The 200 mm rod travel is long for a mini - support any off-center load to protect the 8 mm rod. Choose FA flange or LB foot mounting, with I and Y knuckles for linkage work. Note the adjuster only sets the extend stop; it will not hold a load if the air supply drops.
Quick checklist
On this bore 20 cylinder: 157 N push and 131.9 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 219.8 N push and 184.7 N pull at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical ceiling of 32 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating band is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), speed 30-800 mm/s.
Every unit carries the piston magnet as standard, so AirTAC CMSG, DMSG and EMSG switches mount directly on the stainless barrel for end-of-stroke or mid-travel signaling. No piston swap or factory option is needed, and the 1/8 inch ports keep the air side simple to plumb.
