The AirTAC Airtac MACJ Stainless Steel Mini Adjustable Cylinder MACJ40X200-30S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 200mm 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.
Set the stop screw once and the extend stroke sits anywhere within a 30 mm band - handy when product sizes change between batches. This is a double-acting, variable-cushion cylinder: 628.3 N of push at 0.5 MPa, rising to 879.6 N at 0.7 MPa, delivered from a 40 mm bore in a slim stainless tube.
That tube is the quiet advantage. Rolled and riveted with aluminium covers into one sealed body, it shrugs off splash, condensation and outdoor air far better than painted or bare-aluminium minis, while the 20 um hard-chrome rod keeps friction low. Pressure runs 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof limit. Size the continuous duty around 377 N at 0.5 MPa rather than the full 628.3 N rating and the seals will last through millions of cycles.

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.
Clamps brackets against a fixture in cells with coolant mist and grinding dust; the stainless barrel and chrome rod simply do not flake like painted minis.
Raises and lowers a filling or dosing head between bottles; the 30 mm band adapts the lift to different bottle formats on one machine.
Actuates a merge gate that folds cases across lanes; 628.3 N push at 0.5 MPa keeps the gate crisp even with dusty cardboard edges.
Bore 32 (402.2 N) handles the lighter end of this class; bore 50 (981.3 N at 0.5 MPa) takes the heavier one - this 40 mm sits in the sweet spot at 628.3 N. Choose FA flange or LB foot mounting and add an I or Y knuckle where the linkage pivots. The 30 mm adjuster is an extend-side end stop: on air failure the rod is free to move, so do not rely on it to park a suspended load. Over a 200 mm stroke, watch rod alignment and let external guides carry any side thrust.
Quick checklist
Push is 628.3 N at 0.5 MPa and 879.6 N at 0.7 MPa; pull is 527.8 N and 738.9 N at the same pressures; the theoretical ceiling is 128.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The 1/8" port feeds both directions.
Both ends carry adjustable air cushions, so the last millimetres of travel decelerate the load instead of banging into the covers. That means you can move 628.3 N-class payloads faster within the 30-800 mm/s window, extend service life, and quiet the machine - particularly useful at the full 200 mm stroke.
