The AirTAC Airtac MACJ Stainless Steel Mini Adjustable Cylinder MACJ50X35-10S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 35mm 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.
Short travel, full strength: with a 50 mm bore behind a 35 mm stroke, this MACJ delivers 981.3 N at 0.5 MPa (22-145 psi) - around 100 kgf - into a stroke barely longer than the rod is wide. The riveted round body combines a stainless-steel barrel, a hard-chrome plated 16 mm carbon-steel rod and rolled aluminium covers, standing up to splash and humidity that would eat a painted mini cylinder.
A magnet comes as standard, so a CMSG or DMSG reed switch tracks the 10 mm adjustment window at no extra cost - no special-order piston. For vertical jobs, the 981.3 N push equates to lifting about 50 kg with a 2:1 safety margin, which covers most small clamp and eject weights. The variable air cushion at both ends keeps a 35 mm stroke from ringing at cycle speeds up to 800 mm/s.

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.

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.
Folding the last flap on a case-sealing head takes a sharp, short push; 35 mm travel and 981.3 N at 0.5 MPa does it, and the 10 mm window matches flap depth per carton size.
Clamping aluminium housings on a machining fixture needs about 50 kg of holding squeeze - well inside this bore's 100 kgf class - with the cushioned end preventing clamp shock.
Depressing a sampling plunger on a pilot bottling skid is a neat fit for the 35 mm stroke; the built-in magnet and a CMSG switch confirm the plunger returned home each cycle.
If your load only needs 400 N or so, bore 32 at 402.2 N push (0.5 MPa) is the cheaper pick; above 600 N, step to bore 63's 1557.9 N. Between those, this 50 mm bore lets you work around 589 N with confidence. Thread options are PT (blank), G or NPT on the 1/4 in. ports; mounting runs to FA flange, LB foot or an I / Y rod knuckle. Remember the 10 mm trim is an extend stop, not a clamp: drop the air and the rod can still be back-driven, so lock the load with a valve or external device if retention is critical.
Quick checklist
Push at 0.5 MPa is 981.3 N and pull is 880.8 N. Raise supply to 0.7 MPa and push climbs to 1373.8 N with pull at 1233.1 N. At the 1.0 MPa maximum the theoretical output is 200.1 kgf. Keep real work loads near 589 N to preserve a sensible margin.
Yes. Every MA-series cylinder leaves the factory with a piston magnet already fitted, so AirTAC's CMSG, DMSG and EMSG switches snap onto the barrel without modification or a special-order piston. Operating span is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) at speeds of 30-800 mm/s.
