About the Airtac MAJ Double Rod Adjustable Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MAJ16X175-20S
Roll-packed from a stainless barrel with riveted aluminium covers, the MAJ16X175-20S fits tight machine frames yet still pushes 100.5 N and pulls 86.4 N at 0.5 MPa. The external stop screw shortens the extend stroke anywhere within a 20 mm window, and rod speed runs 30-800 mm/s on 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) air.
At 0.7 MPa the same 16 mm bore reaches 140.7 N push and 120.9 N pull. The hard-chrome plated 6 mm rod resists mild corrosion far better than painted minis in food or outdoor cells. Fixed bumper pads ease stroke-end impact - for adjustable air cushioning step up to the MACJ family. The built-in magnet is standard, so DMSG switches drop straight on. For sizing, treat 60 N as the realistic working push at 0.5 MPa; vertically that is about 5 kg lifted with 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.
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 MAJ16X175-20S Is Used
Lid lift on a small tray-sealing machine
Raises lightweight tray lids about 5 kg equivalent before sealing; the 20 mm trim lets operators fine-tune the open height after install.
Tool-changer riser on a benchtop CNC
Lifts the tool dock clear of the spindle; the riveted round body slots into narrow gantry frames where profile cylinders will not fit.
Position flag with DMSG sensing on a vial labeler
Drives a visible flag that confirms label application; the standard magnet and a DMSG switch give the PLC a clean electrical signal.
Is the Airtac MAJ Double Rod Adjustable Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MAJ16X175-20S the Right Cylinder?
Nothing in the MA family sits below 16 mm, so upsize if 100.5 N is marginal - the 25 mm bore delivers 245.3 N at 0.5 MPa. The 20 mm adjuster is a stop, not a holding brake; with air off the rod can creep, so clamp the load elsewhere. Choose an FA flange for face mounting or an LB foot for base fixing, and bolt an I or Y knuckle onto the M6x1.0 male rod thread when the load pivots. A 175 mm stroke on a 6 mm rod wants careful alignment to limit side load.
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 MAJ16X175-20S FAQ
Full figures: 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; 20.5 kgf theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa. Proof pressure is 1.5 MPa (215 psi).
No. It carries fixed anti-impact bumper pads that decelerate the piston at stroke end. Adjustable air cushioning belongs to the separate MACJ family; this model keeps the riveted round body compact.
