The AirTAC Airtac MACJ Stainless Steel Mini Adjustable Cylinder MACJ40X150-30S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 150mm 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.
For stop-position tweaking without changing hardware, the MACJ40X150-30S offers a 30 mm extend-trim window on a 150 mm stroke. This 40 mm bore double-acting cylinder pushes 628.3 N and pulls 527.8 N at 0.5 MPa; at 0.7 MPa those figures climb to about 880 N and 739 N. Halve the lift equivalent and you can hang about 32 kg vertically while keeping a 2:1 force margin.
Its stainless round barrel, hard-chrome rod and rolled aluminium covers shrug off splash and mild corrosion in food-adjacent or outdoor machinery. Variable air cushions at each end absorb shock so you can run the stroke faster than a bumper-only mini would allow, and the standard magnet accepts CMSG / DMSG / EMSG switches for position feedback.

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 | 628 N | 528 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 880 N | 739 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 128 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.
The 628 N push seats flaps at 0.5 MPa, and the 30 mm window lets technicians retune tuck depth whenever carton sizes change on the line.
Flicking rejects off a stamping die chute draws on only part of the roughly 880 N available at 0.7 MPa, leaving reserve for sticky or heavy scrap.
Raising an aluminium lid of about 30 kg vertically stays inside a 2:1 margin against the 628 N push rating of this bore.
Size against neighbours: a 25 mm MACJ pushes 245.3 N at 0.5 MPa and a 50 mm bore reaches 981.3 N, so the 40 mm class suits loads in the 300-600 N band. The -30 stop screw is a stroke end stop, not a mid-stroke clamp - under air loss the rod can creep, so pilot a check or shut-off valve if holding position matters. Pick FA flange or LB foot mounting, add I or Y knuckles where the linkage pivots, and bolt a CMSG switch to the standard magnet for feedback. For long 150 mm strokes, keep the load guided to protect the 16 mm rod from bending.
Quick checklist
Bore 40 mm, stroke 150 mm, adjustable window 30 mm. Push 628.3 N and pull 527.8 N at 0.5 MPa; push 879.6 N and pull 738.9 N at 0.7 MPa; theoretical peak 128.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure spans 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) and speed 30-800 mm/s.
No. The stop screw only fixes where the extend stroke terminates; with pressure gone the piston is free to move, so use a blocking or pilot-operated check valve for true load holding. Mounting choices are FA flange or LB foot, with I and Y rod knuckles available.
