The AirTAC Airtac MACJ Stainless Steel Mini Adjustable Cylinder MACJ50X60-40S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 60mm 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.
Need a strong short push you can fine-tune? The MACJ50X60-40S offers a 60 mm stroke that the external stop screw trims by up to 40 mm, all inside a riveted stainless round body. Double-acting with variable cushions at each end, it develops 981 N of push at 0.5 MPa for clamps, diverters and ejectors.
The stainless tube and hard-chromed 16 mm rod keep corrosion at bay in food, washdown and outdoor settings where painted minis blister. As a rule of thumb, count on about 589 N of usable force at 0.5 MPa - roughly a 60 kg horizontal shove, or a 50 kg vertical lift with a 2:1 margin for part-weight matching. Position sensing is built in from the factory: the magnet is standard and drives CMSG / DMSG / 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 | 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.

| -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.
Locks a dial table at each station; trim the stroke so the pin seats the same depth on every index.
Swings a safety gate closed at a dock; the 40 mm window matches worn or mismatched gate hardware.
Forms small brackets on a manual bench press, with cushioned end positions protecting the tooling.
For lighter jobs, the MACJ40 gives 628 N of push at 0.5 MPa; when the 60 mm throw must stake or shear, step to the MACJ63 at 1558 N. Body mounting is FA flange or LB foot, with I and Y rod knuckles for lever linkages. Note the stop screw is an extend-side end stop only - never count on it to lock a load against air loss; fit a pilot-operated check valve for that.
Quick checklist
Push is 981 N at 0.5 MPa with 881 N of pull; at 0.7 MPa the push climbs to 1374 N with 1233 N of pull, and the theoretical peak is 200 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It runs on filtered air at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), 30-800 mm/s, through 1/4" ports (PT standard, G/NPT options).
It is the adjustable window: the stop screw can shorten the 60 mm extend stroke by up to 40 mm, leaving as little as 20 mm of travel when needed. The cushion is variable at both ends, so you can soften landings further as the stroke is trimmed down.
