The AirTAC Airtac MACJ Stainless Steel Mini Adjustable Cylinder MACJ25X85-40S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 85mm 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.
Machines that need one cylinder to cover several stroke settings fit the MACJ25X85-40S: its 40 mm window lets maintenance trim extend travel between 45 and 85 mm with an external screw, while the double-acting piston carries a variable air cushion at each end to kill stop shock. Force at 0.5 MPa is 245.3 N push and 206.1 N pull, on a 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) supply at 30-800 mm/s.
For a buyer doing the lift math, 245.3 N at 0.5 MPa equals about 25 kg of theoretical vertical lift - halve it and this cylinder still raises roughly 12 kg with margin. The riveted stainless barrel and 20 um chrome-plated rod shrug off splash and mild corrosion, an edge in food benches and outdoor panels where painted minis pit.

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.
Switch lane width by turning the end screw: extend travel adjusts across a 40 mm window, with 343 N available at 0.7 MPa.
Set fill-rod travel between 45 and 85 mm; the variable air cushion allows faster closing without hammering the valve seat.
Roughly 245 N of clamp force at 0.5 MPa holds stock on the drill table; the chrome-plated rod resists coolant mist day after day.
Compare both directions: the 20 mm bore pushes 157 N at 0.5 MPa with M8x1.25 on an 8 mm rod, while the 32 mm bore pushes 402 N with M10x1.25 on a 12 mm rod; this 25 mm unit at 245 N is the efficient middle for clamping and pressing. Mount on the FA flange or LB foot; I and Y knuckles take pivot tooling. One caution: the stroke adjuster is a mechanical extend stop, never a load brake, so on air loss the piston can still move - add external locking where a suspended load must stay put.
Quick checklist
Push is 245.3 N and pull 206.1 N at 0.5 MPa; at 0.7 MPa push rises to 343.4 N. Theoretical maximum for the 25 mm bore is 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Rod thread is M10x1.25 on a 10 mm rod, ports are 1/8", stroke trims across a 40 mm window, and the variable air cushion works at both ends between 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi).
Yes in damp, food-side or outdoor panels: the stainless round barrel and the 20 um hard-chrome plated carbon-steel rod resist mild corrosion and repeated hose-downs that pit painted mini cylinders, while the riveted cover-to-tube joint keeps the seal intact. The built-in magnet ships standard, so CMSG, DMSG or EMSG position switches attach without options.
