The AirTAC Airtac MACJ Stainless Steel Mini Adjustable Cylinder MACJ50X300-50S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 300mm 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.
Biggest trim window in this set: the MACJ50X300-50S allows 50 mm of on-site adjustment to the extend stroke while keeping the full 300 mm travel available. This double-acting mini cylinder carries a variable air cushion, runs 30-800 mm/s on 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) air, and generates 981.3 N push and 880.8 N pull at 0.5 MPa.
Its riveted stainless round body with a hard-chrome carbon-steel rod handles condensation, splashes and outdoor dust better than painted housings. Leave headroom in your design: around 589 N of the thrust is a realistic working figure at 0.5 MPa, which matches roughly 50 kg of vertical lifting with a 2:1 safety factor.

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 | 982 N | 881 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 1374 N | 1234 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 200 kgf | |
Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a safety margin.

|---|---|
| 50 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×300 | Stroke length in mm. |
| -50 | 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.
Push compressed cardboard off a small baler table; 981.3 N of push at 0.5 MPa clears the chamber and the 50 mm trim tunes the ejection length per bale.
Clamp brackets in an automotive weld cell; the hard-chrome rod withstands weld spatter and grinding dust, and an EMSG switch confirms the clamped position.
Latch and release a light dock leveller plate; the mechanical stop defines the latch depth, and 880.8 N of pull at 0.5 MPa snaps the latch back reliably.
When 981.3 N at 0.5 MPa covers your load, stay at bore 50; step down to 628.3 N (bore 40) or up to 1557.9 N (bore 63) as the math dictates. With 300 mm of travel and a 16 mm rod, guide any side load externally to protect the rod and seals. FA flange and LB foot cover fixed mounting, while the built-in magnet keeps position feedback simple with CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches.
Quick checklist
Rated figures: 981.3 N push and 880.8 N pull at 0.5 MPa; 1373.8 N push and 1233.1 N pull at 0.7 MPa; 200.1 kgf theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa. It is double-acting with a variable cushion, a 300 mm base stroke, a 50 mm extend trim range, and 1/4" air ports.
Fix the body with an FA flange or LB foot and guide external side loads separately, since the 16 mm rod is sized for thrust rather than bending. The I and Y rod knuckles allow pivoting joints, and the adjuster stop defines the extend position but never acts as a mid-stroke lock.
