About the Airtac MAJ Double Rod Adjustable Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MAJ16X160-100S
Buy once, set anywhere: the MAJ16X160-100S carries the widest trim in this bore, a 100 mm window over a 160 mm stroke, so one cylinder covers every extend length from 60 mm upward as your jig or station layout evolves. The round stainless barrel is rolled onto aluminium-alloy covers with a stainless block, the 6 mm rod is hard-chrome plated to 20 um, and air feeds through M5x0.8 ports.
Force class stays light: 100.5 N push and 86.4 N pull at 0.5 MPa, or 140.7 N push at 0.7 MPa, with 20.5 kgf theoretical at the full 1.0 MPa. That supports roughly 60 N of steady work, or about 5 kg lifted vertically after a 2:1 margin - match it to the weight of a small gate or tray. Double-acting on 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), cycling 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.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø16mm)
| 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.

Where the Airtac MAJ Double Rod Adjustable Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MAJ16X160-100S Is Used
Tray indexing
Advances small parts trays one station at a time on an assembly bench, with the 100 mm trim covering varied pitch settings.
Hopper gate lift
Lifts a slide gate on a small powder hopper, sized to the roughly 5 kg vertical capacity of this bore at working margin.
Button press test
Presses light-switch buttons through a life-test rig, with 100.5 N push at 0.5 MPa and the stroke tuned by the stop screw.
Is the Airtac MAJ Double Rod Adjustable Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MAJ16X160-100S the Right Cylinder?
Sixteen millimetre bore is the smallest MA offers, so oversized loads call for the 20 mm bore at 157.0 N or the 25 mm bore at 245.3 N push, both at 0.5 MPa. Rod thread on this model is M6x1.0 over a 6 mm rod.
Use the FA flange or LB foot for body fixing, or hang an I or Y knuckle on the rod end. The external stop is purely a positional end stop for extension - it never locks the load, and a piston with lost air will still move. Across 160 mm of stroke, arrange external guidance for anything carrying side load, and let the standard magnet plus a CMSG switch confirm end positions.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT / G / NPT)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) is standard for sensors
- ✓ Back cover (CA/U/CM) & mount (FA/LB/SDB)
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Do not dismantle the riveted front/back covers.
- check Bumper models: keep speed within the rated range.
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac MAJ Double Rod Adjustable Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MAJ16X160-100S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 100.5 N and pulls 86.4 N; at 0.7 MPa, 140.7 N push and 120.9 N pull; theoretical maximum is 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-800 mm/s.
Choose the FA flange or LB foot for body fixing, with optional I or Y rod knuckles on the 6 mm rod. Every unit ships with a built-in magnet as standard, so CMSG / DMSG / EMSG switches drop on for end-of-stroke detection - no special piston order needed.
