The AirTAC Airtac MACJ Stainless Steel Mini Adjustable Cylinder MACJ63X175-100S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 175mm 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.
A 100 mm trim window makes the MACJ63X175-100S the most flexible 63 mm model in the MA line: order 175 mm and set anywhere shorter from the external stop screw, with no re-ordering when the fixture changes. It is double-acting throughout, delivering 1557.9 N forward and 1457.4 N back at 0.5 MPa, with adjustable air cushions at both ends.
The riveted stainless barrel shrugs off coolant mist and outdoor humidity that blister painted mini cylinders, and the 16 mm hard-chrome rod keeps its surface through millions of cycles. Derate for real work: about 935 N of push at 0.5 MPa, which lifts roughly 158 kg or about 79 kg if you want a 2:1 safety factor. The built-in magnet means DMSG or CMSG sensors fit without ordering a special piston. It runs on 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) at 30-800 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 | 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.

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.
One cylinder covers several carton depths on a case packer - trim the extend stroke by up to 100 mm instead of re-piping a fixed model.
The 1557.9 N push at 0.5 MPa swings heavy pallet-flow diverters while both-end cushions stop the gate rattling loose.
Clamping castings of different heights on a machining fixture; tune the stop screw per part and signal done with an EMSG switch.
There is nothing above 63 mm in the MACJ series, so look downward when sizing: the 50 mm bore (981.3 N push at 0.5 MPa) suits lighter loads. FA flange and LB foot mountings bolt straight on, and I or Y knuckles add rod-end flexibility. Remember the trim screw only shortens the extend stroke - it never adds travel past 175 mm and it will not lock the rod if air is lost, so use a locking valve or external stop where the load must hang. A 175 mm cantilevered stroke also deserves external guides under side load.
Quick checklist
Push is 1557.9 N and pull 1457.4 N at 0.5 MPa; at 0.7 MPa expect 2181.0 N and 2040.3 N, topping out at a theoretical 317.7 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Supply 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) of air filtered to 40 um and keep piston speed between 30 and 800 mm/s.
Yes: FA flange or LB foot plates bolt to standard holes, and I or Y knuckles take common rod clevises. The magnet comes inside every piston, so CMSG or DMSG switches drop straight onto the stainless tube. Note the adjuster sets a shorter extend stroke only - it is a stop, not a brake, so the rod can still drift if pressure drops.
