About the Airtac MAJ Double Rod Adjustable Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MAJ16X30-20S
Short-stroke positioning gets simpler with the 20 mm trim window: the rod still travels 30 mm full, but the stop screw shortens the extend stroke to match each fixture, no re-plumbing needed. At 0.5 MPa the 16 mm bore pushes 100.5 N (140.7 N at 0.7 MPa) and pulls back at 86.4 N.
The rolling-packed construction - stainless tube, aluminium covers, hard-chrome rod - resists corrosion in humid or food-adjacent areas. Fixed anti-impact pads quiet the stroke ends without adding an air-circuit cushion. Budget about 60 N for real work at 0.5 MPa, or roughly 5 kg of vertical lift 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 MAJ16X30-20S Is Used
Small-part kick-off
Knocking single screws or caps off a vibratory bowl exit track; 100.5 N at 0.5 MPa is ample for gram-class parts.
Label press nip
A brief 20 mm working stroke that presses labels onto vials, trimmed on site so dwell height matches each container.
Drawer latch confirmation
Driving a latch on small instrument drawers, with an EMSG switch confirming closed position from the standard magnet.
Is the Airtac MAJ Double Rod Adjustable Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MAJ16X30-20S the Right Cylinder?
Bore 16 offers 100.5 N at 0.5 MPa; the next step, MAJ20, reaches 157 N, so size up when the duty cycle heats the air or line pressure sags. The 20 mm window is trim-only - it shortens the extend stroke and works as an end-stop, never as a brake, so a piston drifting under gravity still needs external stops. The standard magnet pairs with CMSG / DMSG / EMSG switches; mounting is FA flange or LB foot, with I and Y rod knuckles available.
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 MAJ16X30-20S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 100.5 N and pulls 86.4 N; at 0.7 MPa the numbers are 140.7 N and 120.9 N. Maximum theoretical force is 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Supply 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) air filtered to 40 um and run the rod at 30-800 mm/s.
The anti-impact bumper pads are fixed - they soften end-of-stroke deceleration but are not an adjustable air cushion; that feature belongs to the MACJ family. What you can adjust is the extend stroke itself, trimmed by up to 20 mm via the external stop screw.
