About the Airtac MAJ Double Rod Adjustable Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MAJ16X450-40S
A 40 mm window on the stop screw gives the MAJ16X450-40S several discrete working positions inside a 450 mm travel, set with a screwdriver on the machine. This is a double-acting round-body mini cylinder: stainless barrel, hard-chromed 6 mm carbon-steel rod, aluminium covers riveted in place. Push force at 0.5 MPa is 100.5 N - in practice, plan around 60 N of real work, or about 5 kg of vertical lift at a 2:1 margin.
Because bore 16 tops out at 300 mm standard, the 450 mm stroke is a made-to-order build. The fixed anti-impact pad at each end decelerates the piston without the tuning an adjustable cushion needs, and since every MA carries a built-in magnet, CMSG / DMSG / EMSG switches simply clip on. The rolled stainless body also resists the mild corrosion that kills painted minis near coolants or outdoors.

Where the Airtac MAJ Double Rod Adjustable Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MAJ16X450-40S Is Used
Multi-tier tote stop on a storage carousel
Trim the extend stroke across the 40 mm band to halt totes at different shelf heights along the 450 mm column.
Lid lift on a filling machine
Around 5 kg of vertical lift covers hinged acrylic guards, and the stainless barrel copes with daily rinse-down.
Feed finger on a small press
At 0.7 MPa the push rises to 140.7 N, enough to seat light parts into a nest before the press cycle starts.
Is the Airtac MAJ Double Rod Adjustable Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MAJ16X450-40S the Right Cylinder?
Step up only if you must: MAJ20 reaches 157 N push at 0.5 MPa and MAJ25 245.3 N, against 100.5 N here - for light gates and diverters bore 16 keeps air bills low. Pull force is 86.4 N, which matters if the return stroke does the work. The stop screw trims extend only and holds nothing mid-stroke; do not rely on it to lock a suspended load if air fails.
FA flange or LB foot mounting both suit a long horizontal run like this; an I or Y knuckle on the rod end absorbs small misalignment. Ports are M5x0.8 (PT blank, G or NPT thread options). Treat the 450 mm, 6 mm rod as a slender column - support or guide any off-axis load.
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 MAJ16X450-40S FAQ
Push at 0.5 MPa is 100.5 N and pull 86.4 N; at 0.7 MPa you get 140.7 N push and 120.9 N pull, peaking at a theoretical 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Porting is M5x0.8 with an M6x1.0 male rod thread, operating on 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) clean dry air at 30-800 mm/s.
No - the magnet is built in as standard on every MA cylinder, so CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches mount straight onto the stainless barrel with no special-order piston. The bumper pads at the stroke ends are fixed: they soften impact but are not adjustable air cushions.
