Airtac MACJ Stainless Steel Mini Adjustable Cylinder MACJ32X160-50S
The AirTAC Airtac MACJ Stainless Steel Mini Adjustable Cylinder MACJ32X160-50S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 160mm 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.

About the Airtac MACJ Stainless Steel Mini Adjustable Cylinder MACJ32X160-50S
With a 50 mm setting window, the MACJ32X160-50S lets you dial the extend stroke anywhere inside its 50 mm range on the machine, then the dual variable air cushions soak up end-of-stroke shock. It is double-acting throughout, running 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) at 30-800 mm/s, and pushes 402 N at 0.5 MPa.
The riveted stainless round barrel and hard-chrome 12 mm rod shrug off humid air and periodic washdown far better than painted minis. Lift with it and the numbers are friendly: halving the 402 N rating leaves about 20 kg of vertical capacity, plenty for a loaded jig or small pallet.

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.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø32mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 402 N | 346 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 563 N | 484 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 82 kgf | |
Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a safety margin.

Where the Airtac MACJ Stainless Steel Mini Adjustable Cylinder MACJ32X160-50S Is Used
Tray filling station
Stops product trays at a repeatable depth on a packaging line, with the 50 mm window absorbing tray-height differences and cushions keeping the drop gentle.
Press-fit locating pin
Advances a locating pin into a fixture on a small assembly press; the variable cushioning on both ends lets operators soften the seat instead of hammering it.
Gated inspection station
Cycles a gate in and out of a vision-inspection conveyor; the built-in magnet accepts CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches so end positions report straight to the PLC.
Is the Airtac MACJ Stainless Steel Mini Adjustable Cylinder MACJ32X160-50S the Right Cylinder?
Bore 25 tops out at 245 N push at 0.5 MPa, so step up if your load exceeds roughly 147 N after a 60 percent derating; bore 40 delivers 628 N for heavier pushes. The stop screw is an end stop only - with air off the rod can still drift, so it is not a position lock. Air enters via 1/8 inch ports and the rod thread is M10x1.25. FA flange or LB foot mount the body, I and Y knuckles take the rod side, and at 160 mm of stroke keep side load low to protect the 12 mm rod.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT / G / NPT)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) is standard for sensors
- ✓ Back cover (CA/U/CM) & mount (FA/LB/SDB)
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Do not dismantle the riveted front/back covers.
- check On first run, back off the cushion screws and release gradually.
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac MACJ Stainless Steel Mini Adjustable Cylinder MACJ32X160-50S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 402 N and pulls 346 N. At 0.7 MPa push climbs to 563 N and pull to 484 N, and the theoretical ceiling is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure spans 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with speeds of 30-800 mm/s through a 1/8 inch port.
A stop screw shortens the extend stroke anywhere inside the 50 mm window; it never extends beyond the ordered 160 mm. It is a mechanical stop, not a brake - under air loss the piston still drifts, so do not rely on it to hold a load mid-stroke.
