The AirTAC Airtac MACJ Stainless Steel Mini Adjustable Cylinder MACJ25X225-50S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 225mm 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 50 mm window, the MACJ25X225-50S is the most flexible trim in the 25 mm MACJ line: the extend stroke can be shortened anywhere from 225 mm to 175 mm to match fixture changes. It stays double-acting with air on both faces, and the variable cushion at each end tames the stop even when the 245 N push at 0.5 MPa arrives at full speed.
The body is a stainless round tube rolled onto aluminium covers with a stainless block - a riveted unit rather than a bolted-up stack - so it seals reliably in damp, dusty or outdoor corners. The 10 mm hard-chrome rod carries about 147 N of honest working force at 0.5 MPa, equal to around 12 kg of vertical lift with margin. A magnet is standard in the piston for CMSG, DMSG and 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.
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 245 N | 206 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 344 N | 289 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 50 kgf | |
Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a safety margin.

|---|---|
| 25 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×225 | Stroke length in mm. |
| -50 | 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.
Nudges carton layers square on a small palletizer, with the 50 mm window covering pallet size changes.
Presses connectors into housings at up to 343 N (0.7 MPa), cushioned to avoid cracking the plastic shell.
Raises and lowers a process sight-glass cover; CMSG switches report open and closed to the control room.
Position this bore between the 20 mm MA (157 N at 0.5 MPa) and the 32 mm MA (402 N): 245 N extend / 206 N retract fits medium part handling at long reach. Remember the trim screw sets the extend endpoint only - it is not a position lock, and the rod will drift if air bleeds off.
Mounting is FA flange or LB foot, with I and Y rod knuckles available. If trimming turns out unnecessary, the fixed-stroke MAC or the double-rod MACD in the same family covers that job. Ports are 1/8"; keep the 225 mm stroke guided against side load.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 245.3 N and pulls 206.1 N; at 0.7 MPa, 343.4 N push and 288.5 N pull; theoretical maximum 50 kgf for the 25 mm bore at 1.0 MPa. The extend stroke trims within the 50 mm window (225 mm down to 175 mm), both ends are variably cushioned, and speed spans 30-800 mm/s at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi).
Every MACJ ships with the piston magnet built in, so CMSG, DMSG and EMSG reed or electronic switches mount directly on the stainless tube. Mounting choices are FA flange or LB foot, with I and Y rod knuckles for the 10 mm rod; confirm exact footprint dimensions from the datasheet drawing.
