The AirTAC Airtac MAJ Double Rod Adjustable Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MAJ16X175-100S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø16mm bore and 175mm stroke, M5×0.8 air ports and a stainless-steel barrel with a hard-chrome-plated rod for reliable, mildly corrosion-resistant service.
Wide setting freedom: a 100 mm adjustable window lets this double-acting mini cylinder run anywhere from 75 mm to the full 175 mm extend stroke, set by an external stop screw and cushioned by fixed anti-impact pads. Output sits in the light-duty class - 100.5 N push, 86.4 N pull at 0.5 MPa.
Where humidity or splash would ruin painted mini bodies, the riveted stainless-steel barrel with its hard-chrome plated 6 mm rod keeps sealing and gliding surfaces clean. CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches attach without ordering options because the magnet is built into every MA piston. For real-world sizing count on close to 60 N of work at 0.5 MPa and a vertical lift near 5 kg once a 2:1 margin is applied.

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. |
| ×175 | Stroke length in mm. |
| -100 | 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.
Secures a small curing-oven door; the stainless body and rod survive the humid heat that corrodes painted minis.
Knocks totes sideways at a sorter junction; light totes need only a fraction of the 100.5 N push available at 0.5 MPa.
Packs powder into 30 mm test cups on a geotech bench; the 100 mm window sets compaction height per cup type.
Step up in force where needed: bore 20 roughly halves the effort at 157 N push per 0.5 MPa, bore 40 tops the range at 628.3 N. The adjuster acts as a mechanical end stop for the extend stroke, so it will not hold the rod against gravity or vibration when air is lost - plan a locking valve instead. FA flange or LB foot mount, I or Y knuckles for pivots, and guide any off-centre load externally since the slim 6 mm rod sees 175 mm of unsupported travel.
Quick checklist
100.5 N push / 86.4 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 140.7 N push at 0.7 MPa, theoretical max 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Supply air at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), filtered to 40 um, cycle speed 30-800 mm/s.
The MAJ's bumper pad is fixed and simply decelerates the piston at each stroke end - it is not an adjustable air cushion like the MAC family offers, and it cannot be tuned. It also does not hold loads; the stop screw is a positioning end stop only.
