About the Airtac MAJ Double Rod Adjustable Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MAJ16X160-30S
If your fixture needs fine end positioning, the MAJ16X160-30S lets an external stop screw shave up to 30 mm off the 160 mm extend stroke without opening the cylinder. Output stays in the light-duty class: 100.5 N forward and 86.4 N back at 0.5 MPa on a Dia 16 piston.
The round barrel is stainless steel with 20 um hard chrome on the 6 mm carbon-steel rod, a combination that suits washdown-adjacent and outdoor duty where painted minis corrode. Supply air runs 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-800 mm/s, temperature -20 to +70 C.

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 MAJ16X160-30S Is Used
Label press nip adjust
Sets the final kiss position of a nip roller on a small label press; the 30 mm window absorbs label-thickness changes without re-machining the stop.
Rotary index detent
Pushes a detent pin into a rotary indexing table on an assembly fixture, holding registration between cycles at up to 140.7 N of push at 0.7 MPa.
AGV charger locator
Aligns robot battery packs onto charger contacts in a warehouse, where the stainless barrel tolerates humidity near wash areas.
Is the Airtac MAJ Double Rod Adjustable Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MAJ16X160-30S the Right Cylinder?
Forces for comparison: MAJ20 pushes 157 N and pulls 131.9 N at 0.5 MPa, so choose it when the load creeps above the roughly 60 N this Dia 16 unit can sustainably deliver. Mounting options are the FA flange, the LB foot, or an I or Y rod knuckle; the adjustable series carries no SDB or dedicated back-cover code. The built-in magnet works with CMSG, DMSG and EMSG switches as shipped, and 160 mm of travel stays well inside the 300 mm standard stroke for bore 16.
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 MAJ16X160-30S FAQ
Push 100.5 N and pull 86.4 N at 0.5 MPa; push 140.7 N and pull 120.9 N at 0.7 MPa; theoretical ceiling 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Ports are M5x0.8, rod thread M6x1.0, rod diameter 6 mm. Working pressure spans 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi).
No. The -30 stop screw is a mechanical end stop that trims the extend stroke; it is not a mid-stroke lock or a brake, so if air pressure is lost the piston will drift under load. For positive holding, add an external clamp or move to a locking cylinder family.
