The AirTAC MACJ Stainless Steel Mini Adjustable Cylinder MACJ50X150-75S is a genuine double acting, double rod, adjustable stroke + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 150mm stroke, 1/4" 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.
A riveted stainless round barrel and a hard-chromed 16 mm rod give this 50 mm bore MACJ the toughness for wet or dusty cells. It runs double-acting with a variable air cushion at both ends, and an external stop screw trims the extend stroke anywhere within the ordered 75 mm window. At 0.5 MPa the piston pushes 981 N, with air supplied at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) and speeds from 30-800 mm/s.
Keep a reserve and plan on roughly 589 N of dependable working force at 0.5 MPa, enough to shove 50 kg crates along a roller lane all shift. The magnet comes built in as standard, so CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches snap on for end-of-stroke signalling without a special piston. FA flange and LB foot mounts, plus I and Y rod knuckles, cover most fixturing needs.

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.

|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 881 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 1234 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 180 kgf |
MAJ / MACJ are double-rod: the rear rod that carries the stroke adjuster exits the rear cover, so both piston faces lose rod area. The rod-side (annular) area is used for both directions (conservative).

MA-family variants: MA / MAC (double acting ±cushion), MSA / MTA (single acting push / pull), MAD / MACD (double rod ±cushion), MAJ / MACJ (double rod, 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 75 mm adjust window lets line staff shorten the push to clear shallow cartons, with 981 N at 0.5 MPa moving loaded cases off the infeed.
Stainless barrel and chrome rod shrug off daily hose-down where painted-steel minis would flake and seize within months.
Variable cushions at both ends settle the head onto the flap without bounce, while the built-in magnet drives a CMSG switch for cycle counting.
Compare sizes on push force: a 40 mm MACJ reaches 628 N at 0.5 MPa while this 50 mm bore gives 981 N; if 1500 N class is needed, step up to the 63 mm bore at 1558 N. Remember the adjuster is a mechanical extend stop only - on air loss the rod can still drift, so add a locking valve where a position must be held. For a 150 mm stroke keep side loads off the rod or guide them externally, and match FA flange or LB foot mounting to the frame.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa the 50 mm bore pushes 981 N and pulls 881 N. Supply air between 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) and expect speeds of 30-800 mm/s.
An external stop screw shortens the extend stroke to any position inside the ordered 75 mm window - it cannot lengthen travel past the 150 mm order code. Cushioning at both ends stays variable, so you can still tune deceleration after trimming. The stop is a positioning device, not a brake; the piston will drift if air is lost.
