The AirTAC Airtac MAJ Double Rod Adjustable Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MAJ25X250-20S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 250mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a stainless-steel barrel with a hard-chrome-plated rod for reliable, mildly corrosion-resistant service.
A 250 mm reach with a fine 20 mm trim is the brief this MAJ25X250-20S answers: a double-acting, round-body mini cylinder whose extend stroke can be wound down to 230 mm by an external stop screw. Bore 25 pushes 245.3 N and pulls 206.1 N at 0.5 MPa (72 psi), firm enough to gate, eject and index small assemblies at 30 to 800 mm/s.
The riveted stainless barrel and hard-chrome 10 mm rod cope with washdown spray and outdoor dust that corrode painted minis. When sizing, plan on about 147 N of real work at 0.5 MPa rather than the full 245.3 N rating. The magnet is built into the piston as standard, so CMSG / DMSG / EMSG switches mount without any special-order parts.

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 | 245 N | 206 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 344 N | 289 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 50 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.
A divert gate on a bottling conveyor: 245.3 N at 0.5 MPa swings or pops single bottles off the lane, and the 20 mm screw trim sets the exact open position between 230 and 250 mm.
Push formed brackets clear of a small stamping die - the 250 mm reach clears the tooling while the stop screw gives repeatable ejection travel shot after shot.
A CMSG reed switch on the standard piston magnet confirms gate-open at a packaging infeed, letting the PLC release product only when the cylinder is fully back.
Bracket the choice first: MAJ20 gives 157.0 N of push at 0.5 MPa if your load is lighter, while MAJ32 lifts the figure to 402.2 N for firmer work. Air runs at 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), filtered to 40 um, with 1/8" ports and an M10x1.25 rod thread at this bore. The 20 mm window trims extend travel only - it is a mechanical end stop, not a mid-stroke lock, so on air loss the rod still drifts and an external stop is needed to hold position. Mount by FA flange or LB foot and add I or Y rod knuckles; on a 250 mm stroke, guide off-axis loads externally so side force stays off the 10 mm rod.
Quick checklist
Push is 245.3 N and pull 206.1 N at 0.5 MPa (72 psi); at 0.7 MPa (101 psi) push reaches 343.4 N with 288.5 N of pull. Theoretical maximum is 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa. This bore 25 unit has a 10 mm rod with M10x1.25 male thread, 1/8" ports, 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) operating range, 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure, 30-800 mm/s speed and -20 to +70 C service.
No. The external stop screw only shortens the extend stroke, anywhere inside the 20 mm window of this model (230 to 250 mm), and acts purely as a mechanical end stop. If pressure drops, the piston keeps moving, so use a separate mechanical stop or valve logic where holding matters. Fixed bumper pads soften the impact at each stroke end.
