The AirTAC Airtac MACJ Stainless Steel Mini Adjustable Cylinder MACJ25X65-30S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 65mm 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.
Round, riveted and rust-resistant, the MACJ25X65-30S pairs a stainless-steel barrel with a hard-chrome plated 10 mm rod inside a rolling-packed aluminium body. The piston's two-way seal stores its own grease, so the 65 mm stroke keeps sliding smoothly through damp or dusty shifts where painted minis seize up.
Double-acting with a 30 mm extend-stroke trim window and a variable air cushion at both ends, this bore 25 unit pushes 245.3 N at 0.5 MPa. Keep a working margin and plan around roughly 147 N of real force, which will lift about 12 kg vertically on a 2:1 ratio. Supply 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) and run anywhere from 30-800 mm/s.

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.

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.
On a secondary packaging line, the 30 mm trim window lets technicians set the exact flap-press depth per carton size without swapping cylinders, while the dual air cushion tames the 245 N push at high line speeds.
Lab automation stations pressing stoppers into 20-30 mL vials benefit from the stainless barrel's washdown tolerance and the roughly 147 N working force, gentle enough for plastic caps when regulated down.
A divert gate on a 300 mm-wide conveyor snaps across the belt within the 65 mm stroke; end-position sensing via the standard magnet feeds the PLC confirmation without separate proximity switches.
A bore 20 MACJ manages only 157 N of push at 0.5 MPa; if your fixture needs more than the 245.3 N this model offers, step up to the 402.2 N of the 32 mm bore. The -30 adjuster shortens the extend stroke only - it is a mechanical end stop, so with air lost the rod will still drift and cannot hold a load mid-travel. Match the standard built-in magnet with CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches for end-of-stroke sensing, and bolt it on via FA flange or LB foot, with I or Y rod knuckles where the tooling needs a flex joint.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 245.3 N and pulls 206.1 N; raise supply to 0.7 MPa and push rises to 343.4 N with 288.5 N of pull. Theoretical maximum output at 1.0 MPa is about 50 kgf. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi).
An external stop screw trims the extend stroke anywhere within the ordered 30 mm window - it shortens the stroke, never lengthens it past 65 mm. Treat the stop as a positioning limit, not a brake: on air loss the piston drifts, so clamp or brake externally if the load must stay put. A variable air cushion at both ends plus 30-800 mm/s speed control handles the deceleration.
