The AirTAC Airtac MAJ Double Rod Adjustable Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MAJ20X100-50S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø20mm bore and 100mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a stainless-steel barrel with a hard-chrome-plated rod for reliable, mildly corrosion-resistant service.
The MAJ20X100-50S pairs a 100 mm nominal stroke with a 50 mm trim window, so an external stop screw lets you wind the extend end anywhere between 50 and 100 mm on the machine. Double-acting air drives both directions, and at 0.5 MPa the bore 20 chamber pushes 157 N and pulls 132 N.
Under the covers sits a riveted stainless-steel round barrel with an 8 mm hard-chrome rod, a build that tolerates washdown splash and humid air far better than painted minis. Keeping a 40% reserve off the 157 N push rating leaves about 94 N for real work, and in a vertical mount the same figure lifts roughly 8 kg with a 2:1 margin. Fixed bumper pads soften each stroke end, and the built-in magnet drops CMSG or DMSG switches on without a special-order piston.

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 | 157 N | 132 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 220 N | 185 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 32 kgf | |
Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a safety margin.

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.
On a small case sealer, the trimmed 50-100 mm reach folds closing flaps; 157 N at 0.5 MPa seats them without crushing the board.
Sweeps under-filled bottles off a filling-line transfer plate; the stainless barrel and chrome rod laugh at syrup splash and rinse water.
Holds thin aluminium brackets against a weld fixture, working on about 94 N of the rating so clamping never bottoms out the regulator.
Size against neighbours: the MAJ16 pushes 100.5 N at 0.5 MPa if the load stays under about 60 N in practice, while the MAJ25 steps up to 245.3 N for heavier ejects; all use a 1/8" port. The stop screw is a mechanical end stop only - if air is lost the rod drifts, so fit a blocking valve or external clamp where a held position matters. FA flange or LB foot mounts plus I and Y rod knuckles cover the usual fixings, and with 100 mm of travel on an 8 mm rod keep side load low and align the coupling carefully.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 157 N and pulls 132 N; at 0.7 MPa those rise to 220 N and 185 N, with a theoretical maximum of 32 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It runs on filtered air at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), survives 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, works from -20 to +70 C at 30-800 mm/s, and takes a 1/8" port.
No. The fixed anti-impact pads only decelerate the piston near each stroke end; they cannot be tuned like an air cushion, which is a facility of the MACJ family. Mount with FA flange or LB foot hardware and use the stop screw to set the extend end anywhere in the 50-100 mm window.
