The AirTAC Airtac MACJ Stainless Steel Mini Adjustable Cylinder MACJ63X150-40S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 150mm 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 jigs and gates need setting room, and the MACJ63X150-40S provides it: a 40 mm trim window on a 150 mm stroke, 63 mm of bore and dual variable cushions. Running double-acting, it pushes 1557.9 N and pulls 1457.4 N at 0.5 MPa; at 0.7 MPa push reaches 2181.0 N. The 16 mm rod is hard-chrome plated and air feeds through 1/4" ports.
Round stainless barrel, rolled-on aluminium covers, grease-retaining piston seal - the MA build is aimed at plants where painted minis corrode fast. Match parts to the cylinder by weight: it lifts about 79 kg vertically at 0.5 MPa with a 2:1 safety factor, or 158 kg at the raw rating. Full speed envelope is 30-800 mm/s on 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi); proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi).

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 | 1559 N | 1458 N |
| 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.

|---|---|
| 63 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×150 | Stroke length in mm. |
| -40 | 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.
Rakes offcuts into a scrap chute under a press; the 40 mm window lets setters re-position the gate for each die, and 935 N of working force at 0.5 MPa clears even packed chutes.
Pushes heavy housings sideways between roller conveyors; the cushion lands each housing against the stop without a bang and the trim absorbs line-to-line spacing drift.
Drops a small sluice gate on a wastewater channel; the pull side's 1457.4 N at 0.5 MPa seats the gate while the standard magnet signals open and closed via a DMSG switch.
For lighter duty the 50 mm bore delivers 981.3 N at 0.5 MPa; nothing in the MA series exceeds 63 mm, so this model is the force ceiling of the range. Treat the 40 mm adjuster as an extend-stroke end stop - on air loss the piston drifts, so it cannot serve as a load-holding brake on a hanging mass. Mount FA flange or LB foot, fit I or Y knuckles for swinging loads, and with 150 mm of stroke use external guidance to keep bending loads off the rod. Sensing needs no option code: the magnet is standard, so CMSG / DMSG / EMSG switches attach directly.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa: 1557.9 N push, 1457.4 N pull. At 0.7 MPa: 2181.0 N push, 2040.3 N pull. Maximum theoretical output is 317.7 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Speed range 30-800 mm/s, supply 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), ports 1/4", rod 16 mm.
The FA flange bolts the cylinder face-on to a machine plate, while the LB foot mounts it base-down on a frame; I and Y rod knuckles handle loads that pivot. All are ordering-code options, and the built-in magnet is standard on every unit regardless of mounting.
