The AirTAC Airtac MAJ Double Rod Adjustable Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MAJ16X300-30S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø16mm bore and 300mm stroke, M5×0.8 air ports and a stainless-steel barrel with a hard-chrome-plated rod for reliable, mildly corrosion-resistant service.
Double-acting mini cylinder with a 30 mm adjustable extend window: an external stop screw trims the 300 mm stroke on site without swapping hardware. At bore 16 the barrel yields 100.5 N of push and 86.4 N of pull at 0.5 MPa, rising to 140.7 N and 120.9 N at 0.7 MPa.
The riveted round body pairs a stainless barrel with a hard-chrome 6 mm rod, so it survives washdown and damp corners that corrode painted minis. AirTAC builds the magnet in as standard, and the fixed bumper pad decelerates the stroke end - plan on roughly 60 N of real work at 0.5 MPa, about 5 kg of vertical lift with 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.

|---|---|
| 16 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×300 | 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.
Flips cartons or leaflets on a filling line where the 300 mm reach and 100.5 N push at 0.5 MPa cover light deflect duty.
Steps microplate trays between lab stations; the 30 mm trim lets technicians dial the pitch without changing cylinders.
Kicks rejected caps or pins off an inspection nest; M5x0.8 ports fit tight manifolds beside the sensor array.
Bore 16 is the smallest MA bore; if 100.5 N at 0.5 MPa is marginal, bore 20 delivers 157 N in the same family. The 300 mm stroke sits at the top of the standard range, so guide the rod or add an I or Y knuckle to keep side loads off the 6 mm pin. Mount with FA flange or LB foot; set the stop screw anywhere inside the 30 mm window, and remember the stop holds position only while air holds - it is not a brake and the rod will drift if pressure drops.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 100.5 N and pulls 86.4 N; at 0.7 MPa push rises to 140.7 N and pull to 120.9 N. Theoretical maximum force at 1.0 MPa is 20.5 kgf. Air ports are M5x0.8 and the 6 mm rod carries an M6x1.0 male thread.
No. AirTAC fits the magnet to every MA-series cylinder as standard, so CMSG, DMSG and EMSG switches clip onto the stainless barrel and read end positions straight out of the box.
