Airtac MACJ Stainless Steel Mini Adjustable Cylinder MACJ50X160-100S
The AirTAC MACJ Stainless Steel Mini Adjustable Cylinder MACJ50X160-100S is a genuine double acting, double rod, adjustable stroke + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 160mm 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.

About the Airtac MACJ Stainless Steel Mini Adjustable Cylinder MACJ50X160-100S
Few minis let one part number cover several product heights. This 50 mm MACJ pairs a 160 mm stroke with a 100 mm adjust window, so the extend stop can be reset anywhere in that band without re-plumbing.
Run it from 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) at 30-800 mm/s. The magnet is fitted as standard, so CMSG, DMSG and EMSG switches drop straight on.

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.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø50mm)
| Pressure | Force (both ways) |
|---|---|
| 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).

Where the Airtac MACJ Stainless Steel Mini Adjustable Cylinder MACJ50X160-100S Is Used
Multi-SKU pallet layer pusher
One cylinder handles tall and short layers alike; shift the stop within the 100 mm window when the product mix changes on the line.
Blister tray indexing on pharma lines
981 N at 0.5 MPa advances tray stacks while cushions land each index softly enough for delicate blisters.
Stroke-feedback stamping fixture
The built-in magnet with a DMSG switch confirms the trimmed extend position before the press cycle is allowed to start.
Is the Airtac MACJ Stainless Steel Mini Adjustable Cylinder MACJ50X160-100S the Right Cylinder?
A 160 mm rod out that far deserves external guidance if side loads exist. Mount with an FA flange or LB foot, add I or Y knuckles where the tooling pivots, and note the M14x1.5 male rod thread accepts standard rod-end accessories. The adjuster positions the rod but will not hold it if air drops - it is not a mid-stroke lock.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT / G / NPT)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) is standard for sensors
- ✓ Back cover (CA/U/CM) & mount (FA/LB/SDB)
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Do not dismantle the riveted front/back covers.
- check On first run, back off the cushion screws and release gradually.
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac MACJ Stainless Steel Mini Adjustable Cylinder MACJ50X160-100S FAQ
Readings at 0.5 MPa are 981 N extend and 881 N retract; at 0.7 MPa they reach 1374 N and 1233 N respectively. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 200 kgf. The cylinder accepts 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) and cycles at 30-800 mm/s.
No. Every MA-series cylinder leaves the factory with a piston magnet already installed, so CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches mount directly on the barrel for end-of-stroke or trimmed-position signals. Combined with the riveted stainless barrel and hard-chromed rod, the same unit suits damp or washdown cells without extra protection.
