The AirTAC Airtac MAJ Double Rod Adjustable Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MAJ16X125-10S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø16mm bore and 125mm stroke, M5×0.8 air ports and a stainless-steel barrel with a hard-chrome-plated rod for reliable, mildly corrosion-resistant service.
Fine positioning is the point of the MAJ16X125-10S: the external stop screw shortens the 125 mm extend stroke by up to 10 mm, from 125 down to 115 mm, ideal when a cut-off point needs only a small trim. This is still a full double-acting cylinder - 100.5 N push, 86.4 N pull at 0.5 MPa - with anti-impact bumpers fixed at both ends of the round stainless barrel.
Real-world budget: about 60 N of push force for work at 0.5 MPa, enough to raise roughly 5 kg vertically at half margin. The M5x0.8 ports suit compact manifolds, and the 6 mm rod carries an M6x1.0 male thread. Because the magnet is standard equipment, CMSG, DMSG and EMSG switches click onto the barrel for end-of-stroke signalling.

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.

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.
A 10 mm trim lets you true up the cut-off position of a small filling nozzle after nozzle swaps, keeping fill heights consistent across batches.
Stakes or seats light dowel pins in plastic housings at roughly 60 N of working force; the short, repeatable stroke protects fragile bosses.
Opens and closes a small plastics-granulate gate; the 115-125 mm span fine-tunes the gate aperture for consistent dosing.
Sizing check: 100.5 N push at 0.5 MPa for this 16 mm bore, versus 157 N for a 20 mm and 245.3 N for a 25 mm MA cylinder. Pick up a size if friction, seals or guide losses eat into the force budget.
This model suits jobs where the end position needs only narrow trims, thanks to the tight 10 mm window. Choose LB feet or an FA flange; I and Y rod knuckles cover pivoting loads, and no SDB variant exists for adjustable cylinders. The end-position screw does not hold the load - on pressure loss the rod drifts - and with 125 mm of travel on a 6 mm rod, external guidance is wise under side loading. CMSG, DMSG and EMSG switches latch onto the standard magnet.
Quick checklist
The datasheet figures are 100.5 N push and 86.4 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 140.7 N push and 120.9 N pull at 0.7 MPa, and roughly 20.5 kgf theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa. Pressure range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi); speed range 30-800 mm/s.
It is a riveted round-body construction: a stainless-steel barrel with aluminium-alloy front and back covers rolled on, plus a 6 mm carbon-steel rod hard-chrome plated to about 20 um. That combination resists mild corrosion and light washdown far better than painted mini cylinders. Air ports are M5x0.8 on this bore, and the rod thread is M6x1.0.
