About the Airtac MAJ Double Rod Adjustable Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MAJ16X225-100S
With nearly half its 225 mm stroke adjustable, the MAJ16X225-100S is the most flexible of the 16 mm adjustable cylinders: set the external stop anywhere from 125 mm up to the full 225 mm and re-trim whenever tooling changes. It generates 100.5 N of push and 86.4 N of pull at 0.5 MPa (20.5 kgf theoretical peak), so size the real job near 60 N - think lifting about 5 kg vertically with margin to spare.
The body is a riveted stainless round barrel over a 6 mm hard-chrome plated rod, a pairing that survives humidity, washdown spray and dusty outdoor posts without flaking paint or plating. Fixed bumper pads soften the stroke ends, and every unit carries a magnet for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches out of the box.

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 MAJ16X225-100S Is Used
Pick station indexing
Steps tote trays along a picking shelf, stop depth re-trimmed as tote sizes change on the line.
Cross-transfer gating
Pushes small parcels sideways at a sorter merge point across a 125-225 mm travel band.
Test fixture actuation
Deploys a probe into electronics housings, with the stainless barrel keeping the fixture wipe-clean.
Is the Airtac MAJ Double Rod Adjustable Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MAJ16X225-100S the Right Cylinder?
At 100.5 N push this is the lightest MA bore; the next steps up are the 20 mm at 157 N and 25 mm at 245.3 N, both quoted at 0.5 MPa. On a 225 mm stroke keep side load low and guide the load externally - a slender 6 mm rod bends easily if tooling pushes sideways.
The adjuster is an extend end stop, not a brake: with air removed the rod can still be backed off, so fit an external stop or lock when a position must hold under load. Mount via FA flange or LB foot, add I or Y knuckles, and stroke the rod at 30-800 mm/s through the M5x0.8 ports.
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 MAJ16X225-100S FAQ
Push is 100.5 N and pull 86.4 N at 0.5 MPa; at 0.7 MPa expect 140.7 N push and 120.9 N pull, peaking at a theoretical 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Pressure range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof rating and 30-800 mm/s speed.
Body mounting is an FA flange or LB foot, with I or Y rod knuckles where alignment matters; ports are M5x0.8. The built-in magnet is standard equipment, so CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches mount straight onto the barrel without ordering a special piston.
