The AirTAC Airtac MAJ Double Rod Adjustable Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MAJ16X115-50S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø16mm bore and 115mm stroke, M5×0.8 air ports and a stainless-steel barrel with a hard-chrome-plated rod for reliable, mildly corrosion-resistant service.
Longer reach, same trimmable heart: the MAJ16X115-50S runs 115 mm of double-acting stroke and lets you shorten it by 50 mm via the stop screw. At 0.5 MPa the bore pushes 100.5 N; stepping the supply to 0.7 MPa lifts that to 140.7 N.
Because the barrel is stainless and the rod carries a 20 um hard-chrome layer, this mini shrugs off splash, humidity and outdoor exposure that ruin painted bodies. Bumper pads fixed at both stroke ends absorb landing shock - there is no adjustable air cushion here, that job belongs to the MAC family. Practically, plan loads around 60 N at 0.5 MPa, about 5 kg of vertical lifting at a 2:1 margin, and bolt on a CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensor using the magnet that ships inside every MA cylinder.

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 | 101 N | 86 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 141 N | 121 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 21 kgf | |
Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a safety margin.

|---|---|
| 16 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×115 | Stroke length in mm. |
| -50 | 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.
Sweeps light totes off a shelf edge; the 50 mm window absorbs shelf-pitch differences from 65 to 115 mm without hardware changes.
Positions a small workpiece before edge-gluing, with the anti-impact pad quieting each return landing in a quiet furniture shop.
Drives snack trays forward against about 5 kg of product; the stainless barrel copes with condensation inside chilled vending cabinets.
With no bore below 16 mm in this series, the comparison runs upward: MAJ20 for 157 N or MAJ40 for 628.3 N at 0.5 MPa if duty grows beyond light tooling. At 115 mm on a 6 mm rod, buckling and side load matter - support the load or choose a larger bore.
Choose FA (flange) or LB (foot), pair with an I or Y knuckle, and note the extend stop is purely mechanical: cut air and the rod drifts, so never rely on it to hold a suspended part. Magnet is standard, ports are M5x0.8.
Quick checklist
Extend 100.5 N and retract 86.4 N at 0.5 MPa; extend 140.7 N and retract 120.9 N at 0.7 MPa; 20.5 kgf theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa. The cylinder runs on 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) filtered air at 30-800 mm/s, with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof rating.
Painted mini cylinders chip and rust in wet, food or outdoor corners, while the riveted stainless tube and 20 um hard-chrome rod keep sealing surfaces intact through washdown and humidity. Add the standard magnet and a CMSG / DMSG / EMSG switch, and you get position feedback from the same corrosion-resistant package.
