The AirTAC Airtac MAJ Double Rod Adjustable Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MAJ20X125-20S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø20mm bore and 125mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a stainless-steel barrel with a hard-chrome-plated rod for reliable, mildly corrosion-resistant service.
A built-in stop screw lets maintenance crews dial the extend stroke anywhere within a 20 mm window (effective stroke 105-125 mm), so one MAJ20X125-20S covers several fixture variants instead of one per length. Double acting throughout, it runs on 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) shop air at 30-800 mm/s, and the piston magnet ships standard for CMSG, DMSG and EMSG switches. At 0.5 MPa the 20 mm bore pushes 157 N and pulls 131.9 N.
The riveted round body pairs a stainless-steel barrel with a 20 um hard-chrome plated rod, so it shrugs off the washdown and condensation that corrode painted minis. Fixed anti-impact bumper pads soften both stroke ends; they only decelerate - an adjustable cushion belongs to the MAC family. For sizing, budget about 94 N of real work at 0.5 MPa instead of the full rating, which is roughly 8 kg lifted vertically at a 2:1 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.
| 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.
| MAJ | Standard round-body mini cylinder (adjustable-stroke). |
|---|---|
| 20 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×125 | Stroke length in mm. |
| -20 | 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.
Kicking small brackets or housings off a belt lane, where a 157 N push at 0.5 MPa is ample and the 20 mm trim absorbs fixture tolerance.
Setting sample trays to exact depth in analytical or packaging test rigs; the stop screw is re-set per recipe within the 20 mm window.
The magnet ships standard, so CMSG or DMSG switches confirm rod position on a gated inspection station without special ordering.
Size both ways before committing: bore 16 delivers 100.5 N at 0.5 MPa and costs less, bore 25 delivers 245.3 N if loads grow. Keep duty near 94 N at 0.5 MPa for long seal life. The stop screw is a mechanical extend-side end stop, not a mid-stroke lock - if air is lost the rod still drifts, so nothing here holds a suspended load. FA flange, LB foot and I or Y rod knuckles cover fixings, ports are 1/8" PT, and over a 125 mm travel keep side loads off the 8 mm rod to avoid bending.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa: 157 N push, 131.9 N pull. At 0.7 MPa: 219.8 N push, 184.7 N pull. Theoretical maximum for the 20 mm bore is 32 kgf at 1.0 MPa. For continuous duty plan on roughly 94 N of usable force at 0.5 MPa.
An external stop screw shortens the extend stroke anywhere in the ordered 20 mm window, so effective extend runs 105-125 mm; retraction stays full stroke. It is an end stop only: it never lengthens the stroke and it is not a load-holding brake - the piston still drifts on air loss. Speed range is 30-800 mm/s.
