The AirTAC Airtac MAJ Double Rod Adjustable Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MAJ16X160-75S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø16mm bore and 160mm stroke, M5×0.8 air ports and a stainless-steel barrel with a hard-chrome-plated rod for reliable, mildly corrosion-resistant service.
Set any extend stroke from 85 mm to the full 160 mm: this double-acting mini cylinder carries a 75 mm adjustable window trimmed by an external stop screw, with fixed anti-impact pads softening each end of travel. Bore 16 output is 100.5 N push and 86.4 N pull at 0.5 MPa - light-ejection territory.
Construction favours dirty air: a riveted stainless-steel round barrel with a hard-chrome plated 6 mm rod resists washdown and mild corrosion where painted mini bodies flake. The magnet ships built in, so DMSG or EMSG switches drop on with no special piston. Budget about 60 N of usable push at 0.5 MPa (around 0.6 of rating), which lets the rod raise roughly 5 kg vertically at a 2:1 margin.

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.

| ×160 | Stroke length in mm. |
| -75 | 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.
Tips faulty cartons off a checkweigher conveyor; 100.5 N at 0.5 MPa is ample for 100 g cartons, and the wide 75 mm window matches varied reject points.
Advances cut terminals into a crimp die on a wire-harness bench; the stainless barrel copes with metal swarf and cutting-fluid spray.
Lifts reagent trays of about 5 kg vertically inside a clinical analyser with a 2:1 margin on the 100.5 N push.
Compare forces before committing: bore 20 steps up to 157 N at 0.5 MPa and bore 25 to 245.3 N, useful if high duty cycles push friction up. Note the adjuster is purely a mechanical extend-stroke end stop; it is not a mid-stroke lock, and the rod will coast if air is lost. Choose FA flange or LB foot mounting, I or Y knuckles for pivoting loads, and keep the 160 mm stroke free of side load on the 6 mm rod.
Quick checklist
Push 100.5 N and pull 86.4 N at 0.5 MPa, push 140.7 N at 0.7 MPa, and a theoretical peak of 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Supply 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) air filtered to 40 um for 30-800 mm/s travel.
An external stop screw shortens the extend stroke anywhere between 85 mm and 160 mm, acting as a mechanical end stop - not a mid-stroke brake - so position is not held if air pressure drops. Mounting options are an FA flange or an LB foot.
