The AirTAC Airtac MACJ Stainless Steel Mini Adjustable Cylinder MACJ63X80-50S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke + cushion standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 80mm 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.
For heavy clamping and lifting at modest pressures, the MACJ63X80-50S is the top bore in AirTAC's MA mini family. Double-acting with a variable air cushion at each end, it rides on a riveted stainless-steel barrel, a hard-chrome plated carbon-steel rod and aluminium-alloy covers, so damp shops and outdoor cells do not eat it the way they eat painted minis. The extend stroke can be shortened on site by up to 50 mm with the external adjuster.
Force at the rod reaches 1557.9 N pushing and 1457.4 N pulling at 0.5 MPa, and 2181.0 N at 0.7 MPa; the 1.0 MPa theoretical rating is 317.7 kgf. Halved for margin, that is about 79 kg of true vertical lift, enough to match the cylinder against a known part weight. Speeds of 30-800 mm/s and a standard piston magnet for CMSG / DMSG / EMSG sensing round out the package.

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.
Hold aluminium extrusions against a 4th-axis tombstone; the 1557.9 N clamp force at 0.5 MPa and 50 mm trim cover varying blank lengths.
With roughly 79 kg of margin-safe vertical lift, it raises EV battery trays on a module-assembly conveyor at a cell plant.
On a corrugated case former, the cushioned stops let the 63 mm bore press flaps at speed without hammering the back cover.
Compare against neighbours before committing: the 50 mm bore delivers 981.3 N at 0.5 MPa, while this 63 mm unit's 1557.9 N earns its keep on heavier fixtures. There is no larger bore in the series, so if the job needs more force, step up to a bigger AirTAC platform instead. The adjuster shortens the extend stroke within the 50 mm window and acts purely as a stop - it will not hold a load if the air fails.
LB feet or an FA flange both bolt on, and I or Y knuckles handle pivoting loads. Every unit leaves the factory with the magnet installed, so a CMSG or DMSG switch is a drop-on upgrade.
Quick checklist
Expect 1557.9 N push and 1457.4 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 2181.0 N push and 2040.3 N pull at 0.7 MPa, and 317.7 kgf theoretical peak at 1.0 MPa. It works from 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), tolerates 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, and moves at 30-800 mm/s.
No. The piston magnet is standard on every MA-series cylinder, so CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches mount directly on the barrel with no special-order piston. The 50 mm stroke adjuster is a mechanical stop only and does not lock the rod when air is lost.
