About the Airtac MAJ Double Rod Adjustable Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MAJ16X90-20S
A slim 16 mm bore actuator for tight layouts: the MAJ16X90-20S is double-acting, and its external stop screw lets you shorten the extend stroke anywhere inside the ordered 20 mm window, down from the 90 mm nominal travel. It runs on 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) of filtered air and cycles at 30-800 mm/s.
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 100.5 N and pulls 86.4 N, so plan roughly 60 N of real work and expect it to lift about 5 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. The stainless round barrel and hard-chromed 6 mm rod resist damp washdown corners that corrode painted-steel minis, and the fixed bumper pad softens the stroke-end hit - it decelerates only, it is not an adjustable cushion.

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 MAJ16X90-20S Is Used
Lab sample lift on a bench station
A 90 mm reach with 20 mm of on-site trim suits bench-top lifts where the stop point must be dialed in against glassware - 100.5 N at 0.5 MPa moves light trays gently.
PCB diverter gate
Push 100.5 N is enough to kick small PCB carriers between conveyor lanes; the stainless barrel stands up to flux fumes and IPA wipe-downs.
Vision camera index stop
Fixture a small inspection camera and use the trim window to repeat a 70-90 mm advance; the magnet drives a CMSG switch for cycle confirmation.
Is the Airtac MAJ Double Rod Adjustable Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MAJ16X90-20S the Right Cylinder?
This is the smallest MA bore, so nothing sits below it; step up to the 20 mm MAJ (157.0 N push at 0.5 MPa) when 100.5 N feels marginal. The stop screw only trims the extend stroke and is a mechanical end stop, not a mid-stroke lock - if air is lost the rod can still drift under load.
Mount with the FA flange or LB foot, and the standard magnet reads position through CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches with no special-order piston needed.
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 MAJ16X90-20S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa this 16 mm bore delivers 100.5 N pushing and 86.4 N pulling; at 0.7 MPa that rises to 140.7 N and 120.9 N, with a theoretical peak of 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Rod speed runs 30-800 mm/s on air filtered to 40 um, pressure 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof 1.5 MPa = 215 psi, and the extend stroke trims within the ordered 20 mm window. Port is M5x0.8, rod thread M6x1.0.
The rolled round barrel is stainless steel and the 6 mm rod is hard-chrome plated carbon steel (20 um), so splash, condensation and mild washdown are handled far better than on painted mini cylinders. Aluminium-alloy covers are rolled onto the tube for a compact, sealed body.
