The AirTAC Airtac MACJ Stainless Steel Mini Adjustable Cylinder MACJ40X50-10S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 50mm 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.
AirTAC builds the MACJ40X50-10S as a double-acting round mini cylinder whose 50 mm extend stroke can be cut back by up to 10 mm with the built-in stop screw. A variable air cushion at both ends dials out impact, the same air works the rod out and back, and the 1/8" port feeds a 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) supply at speeds from 30-800 mm/s.
Push force reaches 628.3 N at 0.5 MPa, which translates to about 377 N of practical work once a sensible reserve is kept. The riveted stainless tube and hard-chrome plated rod shrug off splash and washdown where painted minis corrode, and the standard onboard magnet snaps onto CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches with no special-order piston.

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.

|---|---|
| 40 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×50 | Stroke length in mm. |
| -10 | Adjustable stroke window (mm the extend stroke can be shortened on site). |
| -S | Built-in magnet for CMSG / DMSG / EMSG sensors (standard on MA series). |
| CA / U / CM | Back-cover type: CA pivot, U flat-end, CM round-end. |
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.
50 mm of travel with 628.3 N at 0.5 MPa seats small bushings, and the 10 mm window lets you stop the ram just above the part.
The rod pops up to halt PET bottles between conveyor lanes; the stainless barrel tolerates daily caustic washdown.
Roughly 377 N of realistic holding clamps sheet steel plates while the variable cushion avoids jarring the fixture frame.
Compare before you commit: the 32 mm bore delivers 402.2 N at 0.5 MPa and the 50 mm bore reaches 981.3 N, so pick this 40 mm unit when your clamp or kicker needs the middle 628.3 N class. If the 10 mm trim range feels tight, the MACJ40X50-20S and MACJ40X50-30S variants widen it. Mount on an FA flange or LB foot, add I or Y rod knuckles, and note the adjuster sets the end of travel but does not hold the load against drifting when air fails.
Quick checklist
Bore 40 delivers 628.3 N push and 527.8 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 879.6 N push and 738.9 N pull at 0.7 MPa, and up to 128.1 kgf theoretical at 1.0 MPa. Air supply runs 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure is 1.5 MPa (215 psi), and speed spans 30-800 mm/s.
The high-precision stainless barrel with its hard-chrome plated 16 mm rod resists rust and chemical splash, so the cylinder survives washdown and outdoor duty where painted minis pit. The piston's two-way seal also retains grease, extending service life.
