The AirTAC Airtac MACJ Stainless Steel Mini Adjustable Cylinder MACJ25X125-50S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 125mm 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.
Half its 125 mm travel can be tuned away on this bore 25 MACJ: the -50S suffix means a 50 mm adjustable window, so a stop screw shortens the extend stroke on site anywhere in that range while a variable air cushion at both ends damps the landing. At 0.5 MPa the piston pushes 245.3 N and pulls 206.1 N; at 0.7 MPa that becomes 343.4 N push and 288.5 N pull, topping out near 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It runs on 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) filtered air at 30-800 mm/s.
AirTAC rolls the aluminium covers and stainless block onto the stainless barrel for a sealed round body, and the hard-chrome plated carbon-steel rod resists wear and splash far better than painted minis in wet food or outdoor stations. Expect about 147 N of dependable force at 0.5 MPa - 60 percent of rated push - which raises roughly 12 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. The piston magnet is factory-fitted, ready for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches.

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.

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.
The 125 mm push sweeps stragglers off a conveyor lane and the 50 mm window lets staff re-set push length after a format change; 206.1 N pull resets the pusher briskly.
Trim the dosing slide within the 50 mm window to change bead length per model variant, with the cushions stopping the bead cleanly at speed.
Clamping a machined bracket needs repeatable force - about 147 N of working push at 0.5 MPa - and the 50 mm window tunes clamp position across part revisions.
Bore 25 occupies a useful middle: bore 20 manages only 157 N at 0.5 MPa while bore 32 reaches 402.2 N, so choose 25 when the job needs under about 147 N of real work and bore 20 is too marginal. The 50 mm adjuster is a mechanical end stop for extension, not a brake - if air drops the rod still moves, so never rely on it to hold a hanging load. Pick FA flange or LB foot mounting; I and Y knuckles fit pivoting fixtures. With 125 mm of stroke, support side loads outside the cylinder to protect the 10 mm rod.
Quick checklist
Count on 245.3 N push and 206.1 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 343.4 N push and 288.5 N pull at 0.7 MPa, and a 50 kgf theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa. The cylinder is bore 25 with a 125 mm stroke, a 50 mm adjustable window, 1/8" air ports, a 10 mm chrome rod, 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) working pressure and 30-800 mm/s speed.
The round barrel is stainless steel and the covers are riveted on in a rolling-packed, sealed body, while the carbon-steel rod carries a 20 um hard-chrome plating. That combination resists mild corrosion and routine hose-downs far better than painted or plain aluminium mini cylinders.
