The AirTAC Airtac MAJ Double Rod Adjustable Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MAJ16X90-10S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø16mm bore and 90mm stroke, M5×0.8 air ports and a stainless-steel barrel with a hard-chrome-plated rod for reliable, mildly corrosion-resistant service.
Ninety millimetres of reach - the longest standard travel on this 16 mm bore - plus a 10 mm extend-trim window set by an external screw: the MAJ16X90-10S covers deep enclosures and slim gates in one compact round body. Double-acting throughout, it pushes 100.5 N at 0.5 MPa and pulls back at 86.4 N; at 0.7 MPa push rises to 140.7 N.
Size the duty to about 60 N of that push rating, or near 5 kg of vertical lift at a 2:1 margin, and keep side thrust off the 6 mm hard-chromed rod by guiding external slides rather than the cylinder itself. The riveted stainless barrel and aluminium covers survive damp, dusty cells that corrode painted minis, fixed bumper pads soften both stroke ends, and the standard-fit magnet pairs with CMSG, DMSG and EMSG switches. Port size: M5x0.8.

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.

| ×90 | Stroke length in mm. |
| -10 | 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.
Swings a sheet-metal door latch home before spindle start; the 10 mm trim takes up latch wear, and a DMSG switch proves the door is locked.
Opens a divert gate for tote flow on a light warehouse conveyor; the 90 mm reach clears the lane while the stainless body ignores dust and drafts.
Tamps labels onto curved bottles on a rotary labeler; a 60 N working share of the 100.5 N rating suits small self-adhesive labels.
Push force here is 100.5 N at 0.5 MPa - fine for latches, dampers and light gates up to roughly 60 N of working effort. Tasks beyond that belong to the 20 mm bore at 157.0 N or the 40 mm bore at 628.3 N.
The stop screw fixes the extend end position only; it is not a lock, and with air lost an overhanging load will still sink - add a counterbalance or mechanical catch for suspended loads. Choose FA flange or LB foot mounting, I or Y knuckles for linkage work, and run 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) at 30-800 mm/s. Over a 90 mm travel the small rod rewards clean fixture alignment above all else.
Quick checklist
Push 100.5 N and pull 86.4 N at 0.5 MPa; push 140.7 N and pull 120.9 N at 0.7 MPa; theoretical maximum 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Designing to about 60 N of actual work keeps the cylinder comfortable.
The external stop sets the extend end point within a 10 mm window and fixed anti-impact pads soften the arrival - they decelerate only and are not adjustable air cushions (the MACJ series carries those). The retract stroke is unaffected.
