The AirTAC Airtac MACJ Stainless Steel Mini Adjustable Cylinder MACJ40X50-30S 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.
Commissioning flexibility sets the MACJ40X50-30S apart: a 30 mm adjustable window lets you re-tune the 50 mm extend stroke as fixtures change, on a double-acting round body with a variable cushion at each end. The 1/8" port takes 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) and cycle speeds reach 800 mm/s.
The 40 mm piston generates 628.3 N at 0.5 MPa, a rating best used as about 377 N of working force to leave reserve for friction and pressure dips. AirTAC rivets the aluminium covers and stainless block onto the high-precision barrel for a sealed round body, and the hard-chrome plated 16 mm rod keeps running in wet or dusty plants. Every unit ships magnetized for CMSG, DMSG and EMSG switches.

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.

| ×50 | Stroke length in mm. |
| -30 | 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.
Gentle cushioned stops protect delicate trays; roughly 377 N of working force is ample for slides weighing a few hundred grams.
A 50 mm stroke drives pins home and the 30 mm window lets engineers shorten travel for different hinge sizes.
The rod eases small cartons down a chute; the stainless barrel and chrome rod shrug off corrugated dust.
This bore sits between a 32 mm cylinder at 402.2 N and a 50 mm cylinder at 981.3 N (both at 0.5 MPa), so 628.3 N covers medium clamps and kickers. Pick the MACJ40X50-10S or MACJ40X50-20S if a tighter adjustment suits your fixture, or step to the MACJ40X400-100S for long travel. FA flange or LB foot, I and Y rod knuckles on request. Because the trim stop is not a mid-stroke lock, a dropped air line still lets the piston coast, so rely on valving, not the screw, for holding.
Quick checklist
Bore 40 gives 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 128.1 kgf theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-800 mm/s.
No. Every MACJ40X50-30S includes the magnet as standard, so CMSG, DMSG and EMSG reed or electronic switches mount directly on the barrel for end-of-stroke or position signals with no special-order piston.
