The AirTAC Airtac MAJ Double Rod Adjustable Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MAJ20X150-50S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø20mm bore and 150mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a stainless-steel barrel with a hard-chrome-plated rod for reliable, mildly corrosion-resistant service.
With a 50 mm stop-screw band, the MAJ20X150-50S lets one cylinder serve several product sizes on the same station: extend travel starts at 150 mm and can be shortened anywhere inside that 50 mm window with a hex key. Output is classic bore-20 territory - 157 N push and 132 N pull at 0.5 MPa, climbing to 220 N push at 0.7 MPa.
Construction is where this mini earns its keep in wet or dusty plants: a stainless-steel round barrel rolled onto aluminium covers, a hard-chrome plated 8 mm rod, and fixed bumper pads that take the sting out of stroke ends. Position switches need no options either - the magnet comes standard, ready for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensors. For lift checks, 157 N at 0.5 MPa is about 16 kgf; halve it for margin and the rod still raises roughly 8 kg vertically.

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. |
| ×150 | Stroke length in mm. |
| -50 | 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.
Tuck and hold minor flaps on small e-commerce cartons; trim the 150 mm stroke within 50 mm to match shallow or deep cartons on the same machine.
Set the descent of a light suction picker over tote bins; roughly 8 kg of vertical capability at 0.5 MPa covers empty and half-full totes with margin.
Raise pallet-stop blades for different fixture heights; the external stop screw sets the up-position precisely without shimming.
Sizing cross-check: if 157 N at 0.5 MPa feels tight, the 25 mm bore doubles the margin at 245 N; if your load sits under 100 N, the 16 mm bore does the job cheaper. Remember the stop screw only shortens the extend stroke - it is an end stop, not a holding brake, so the rod can sag if supply air fails mid-cycle. Mount with the FA flange or LB foot and pick I or Y knuckles for pivoting links; at this 150 mm stroke, guide any side load in slides rather than on the rod itself. CMSG or DMSG switches drop on the barrel straight from the box.
Quick checklist
Push 157 N and pull 132 N at 0.5 MPa; 220 N push and 185 N pull at 0.7 MPa; roughly 32 kgf maximum theoretical force at 1.0 MPa. The extend stroke is 150 mm, adjustable down through a 50 mm window, with an 8 mm hard-chrome rod and 1/8" air ports.
No. The MAJ uses fixed anti-impact bumper pads that only soften the last part of travel; they decelerate the piston but cannot be tuned like an air cushion. If your cycle needs adjustable cushioning, compare the MACJ family, which adds cushions to the same adjustable-stroke idea.
