About the Airtac MAJ Double Rod Adjustable Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MAJ16X60-40S
A 16 mm stainless round-body mini cylinder with a trimmable extend stroke: an external stop screw shortens extension anywhere inside the ordered 40 mm window, while retraction keeps the full 60 mm. Double-acting throughout, it pushes 100 N and pulls 86 N at 0.5 MPa (140 N push at 0.7 MPa), running on air filtered to 40 um at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with speeds of 30-800 mm/s.
The riveted stainless barrel and 20 um hard-chrome rod handle damp washdown corners that defeat painted minis, and the fixed bumper pads soften each stroke end - they slow the piston, they are not an adjustable cushion. Every unit carries its magnet as standard, so CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches clip straight on. Keep real work near 60 N per move, which leaves this bore roughly 5 kg of vertical lift capability 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.
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 MAJ16X60-40S Is Used
Vial stopper pressing
In a small lab filler, the 60 N working force seats rubber stoppers into 16 mm vials without crushing glass, and the trimmed extend stroke sets seating depth.
Sorter gate kick
On a compact parcel diverter, 100 N of push at 0.5 MPa flicks small items between lanes; the built-in magnet drives a CMSG switch to confirm gate position.
Blister pack eject
A blister line ejector uses the 65 to 20 mm trimmed extension to nudge finished blisters off the tooling while the 86 N pull resets quickly for the next cycle.
Is the Airtac MAJ Double Rod Adjustable Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MAJ16X60-40S the Right Cylinder?
Size across the range: 16 mm is the smallest bore in the MA family at 100 N push (0.5 MPa); the next step up, 20 mm, delivers 157 N - cross over only when friction eats your margin. The -40 window suits gates that never need the last 40 mm of travel; remember the stop screw is a mechanical end stop, so a stored load can still drift on air loss - it is not a holding brake. FA flange or LB foot mounting plus I and Y rod knuckles cover most fixture styles, and the standard magnet keeps switch wiring simple.
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 MAJ16X60-40S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 100.5 N and pulls 86.4 N; at 0.7 MPa those rise to 140.7 N and 120.9 N. The theoretical ceiling is 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Air supply runs 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof tested to 1.5 MPa (215 psi), with speeds of 30-800 mm/s, a 6 mm hard-chrome rod and an M5x0.8 port.
An external stop screw limits extension anywhere within the ordered 40 mm window, so you dial the extend stroke down on site without shims. It is a mechanical stop for the extend stroke only - it does not lengthen travel, hold a load on air loss, or act as an adjustable cushion. Retraction always covers the full 60 mm.
