About the Airtac MAJ Double Rod Adjustable Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MAJ16X250-10S
The MAJ16X250-10S is a double-acting mini cylinder with a 250 mm stroke that an external stop screw trims by up to 10 mm, so the extend end can sit anywhere from 240 to 250 mm once the machine is on the floor. Push force at 0.5 MPa is 100.5 N with 86.4 N on the return - honest output for a 16 mm bore in a riveted stainless round body.
The hard-chrome plated 6 mm rod and stainless barrel hold up in damp or lightly washed-down stations far better than painted mini bodies, and the fixed bumper pad takes the sting out of stroke end - it decelerates only, it is not an adjustable air cushion. For sizing, plan on roughly 60 N of useful work at 0.5 MPa rather than the full 100.5 N rating.

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 MAJ16X250-10S Is Used
Sample rack feeder
Pushes a microscopy slide tray 250 mm into an inspection nest; the 10 mm stop trim lines the rack up with the camera without re-shimming the bracket.
Vial lane diverter
A stainless barrel and M5x0.8 ports suit washdown-adjacent pharma benches; 100.5 N at 0.5 MPa easily nudges one 40 g vial off a single-file lane.
Print head park
Clips a CMSG switch to the standard magnet for home-position feedback while the fixed bumper pad settles the head softly at the adjusted end.
Is the Airtac MAJ Double Rod Adjustable Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MAJ16X250-10S the Right Cylinder?
Bore 16 is the smallest MAJ bore; if 100.5 N at 0.5 MPa feels marginal, the next step up, the 20 mm MAJ, gives 157.0 N and the 25 mm bore 245.3 N at the same pressure. Mount on an FA flange or LB foot, and add an I or Y rod knuckle where the load pivots. With a 6 mm rod over a 250 mm stroke, guide the load externally - side thrust is what kills long thin rods. The adjuster is a mechanical end stop, not a mid-stroke lock: if air is lost the piston still drifts.
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 MAJ16X250-10S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 100.5 N and pulls 86.4 N; at 0.7 MPa that rises to 140.7 N push and 120.9 N pull, with a theoretical peak of 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Working pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), speed 30-800 mm/s, port M5x0.8, rod thread M6x1.0.
An external stop screw caps the extend stroke anywhere from 240 to 250 mm. It is a mechanical end stop, not a load lock - if air is lost the rod can still drift, and retraction always runs the full stroke.
