The AirTAC Airtac MACJ Stainless Steel Mini Adjustable Cylinder MACJ63X100-50S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 100mm 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.
Heavy pushes and a half-window of trim: the MACJ63X100-50S pairs a 100 mm stroke with a 50 mm adjustable extend range and a variable cushion at each end. This is the strongest bore in the MA mini line, pushing 1557.9 N at 0.5 MPa - about 935 N of dependable working force once a 60 percent duty factor is applied.
Build quality matches the rating: a stainless round barrel riveted to aluminium-alloy covers, a 16 mm hard-chrome rod, and heterogeneous piston seals that hold grease between service intervals. In food halls, outdoor fixtures and wet machining cells it outlasts painted-steel minis that chip and pit.

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.

| 0.7 MPa | 2182 N | 2041 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 318 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.
Dial the extend stop through the 50 mm window when switching coupon thicknesses, relying on the front cushion for soft seating.

Around 935 N of practical working force presses armature bushings out of starter motor housings in an auto-electric shop.
This is the ceiling of the series - no MA bore exists above 63 mm - so treat 981.3 N (the 50 mm push at 0.5 MPa) as your step-down point and move to a larger AirTAC series once working loads exceed about 935 N. The 50 mm window suits multi-product fixtures where the extend stop is moved between recipes.
The 1/4" ports and M14x1.5 male rod thread keep plumbing simple, FA flange and LB foot mounts suit static fixtures, and the standard magnet pairs with CMSG / DMSG / EMSG switches for position feedback. On air failure the rod is free to move - the adjuster trims stroke, it does not lock the load.
Quick checklist
Push is 1557.9 N at 0.5 MPa and 2181.0 N at 0.7 MPa; pull is 1457.4 N at 0.5 MPa and 2040.3 N at 0.7 MPa. Peak theoretical force is 317.7 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Design around a 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) supply and a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure.
The riveted stainless barrel with a 20 um hard-chrome plated rod handles humidity, splash and mild washdown without the chipping and rust you get on painted bodies. The two-way piston seal also retains grease, cutting lubrication visits over the cylinder's life.
