The AirTAC Airtac MAJ Double Rod Adjustable Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MAJ16X175-30S 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.
Small assembly heads that need an exact extend limit fit the MAJ16X175-30S: a 16 mm bore delivering 100.5 N push and 86.4 N pull at 0.5 MPa, with the stop screw trimming the extend stroke over a 30 mm window. Operating band is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), speed 30-800 mm/s, temperature -20 to +70 C.
The 20.5 kgf theoretical ceiling at 1.0 MPa leaves headroom for short pressure spikes. AirTAC rolls the stainless barrel, aluminium covers and stainless block into one riveted unit - no tie rods to loosen under vibration. The heterogeneous piston seal also stores grease, cutting relube intervals. Every cylinder carries a standard magnet for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches. Size for about 60 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, which is roughly a 5 kg vertical lift 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.
| MAJ | Standard round-body mini cylinder (adjustable-stroke). |
|---|---|
| 16 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×175 | Stroke length in mm. |
| -30 | 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.
Sets light spring-loaded needles row by row; the 30 mm window absorbs tolerance stack between needle bars without re-machining stops.
Folds glue tabs on compact cartons at the stitch station; 60 N of usable push at 0.5 MPa is sufficient for light board.
Limits the fill-stop lever travel and confirms position via an EMSG switch on the standard magnet, keeping dose cutoff repeatable.
If 100.5 N at 0.5 MPa is close to your need, the 20 mm bore (157.0 N) adds margin without a big footprint jump; the 32 mm bore (402.2 N) suits heavier clamps. Remember the 30 mm window only shortens the extend stroke and stops the piston mechanically - it will not hold a load mid-stroke when air fails. FA flange and LB foot mountings, plus I and Y knuckles on the M6x1.0 rod thread, cover most fixings. On a 175 mm stroke, guide the load externally so the 6 mm rod sees little side force.
Quick checklist
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; 20.5 kgf maximum theoretical at 1.0 MPa. Air port is M5x0.8, rod is 6 mm with an M6x1.0 male thread.
Its barrel is stainless steel and the carbon-steel rod carries a 20 um hard-chrome plating, so mild corrosion and splash are handled well. It is not a certified washdown product, so confirm harsh chemical duty from the datasheet.
