The AirTAC Airtac MAJ Double Rod Adjustable Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MAJ25X250-40S 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.
Adjustment latitude is the story of this model: the MAJ25X250-40S sets extend travel anywhere from 210 mm to the full 250 mm via an external stop screw, so one cylinder serves several fixture lengths. Bore 25 is rated 245.3 N push and 206.1 N pull at 0.5 MPa (72 psi), rising to 343.4 N of push at 0.7 MPa (101 psi), moving sortation and feed mechanisms at 30 to 800 mm/s.
Beneath the plain exterior sit a stainless-steel barrel and a hard-chrome plated carbon-steel rod, materials that shrug off humid or mildly corrosive corners - a genuine advantage over coated minis in food and outdoor stations. For sizing, count on roughly 147 N of usable push at 0.5 MPa once friction and seal drag are paid for. The piston magnet is already in place as standard, so CMSG / DMSG / EMSG switches snap to the barrel without ordering a special 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 | 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.
Stepping a lab sample carousel between stations: the trim screw sets each station pitch precisely within the 40 mm window, and 245.3 N at 0.5 MPa is far more than the carousel needs.
Raising a pallet-strapper strap guide flag as the machine cycles - 206.1 N of pull at 0.5 MPa lifts the light guide cleanly and a CMSG switch flags retraction to the controller.
Swinging a divert arm on a warehouse sorter lane, where the 250 mm reach crosses the lane and the trimmed stroke keeps the arm clear of passing totes.
Compare both ways before committing: MAJ20 returns 157.0 N of push at 0.5 MPa, while MAJ32 delivers 402.2 N, so pick 25 mm when the load sits between those bands. Port size is 1/8" at this bore with an M10x1.25 rod thread. Treat the 40 mm window as a trim tool only: the screw is an end stop, not a position lock, and a pressure-loss drift is still possible. FA flange or LB foot mounting, plus I or Y knuckles at the rod, covers most frame designs. With 250 mm of travel, even modest side loads can bend the 10 mm rod, so attach a guide or slide for anything off-axis.
Quick checklist
Push 245.3 N and pull 206.1 N at 0.5 MPa (72 psi); push 343.4 N and pull 288.5 N at 0.7 MPa (101 psi); 50 kgf theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa. The extend stroke adjusts between 210 and 250 mm via the external stop screw. Pressure range is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-800 mm/s.
Every MA-series piston carries a built-in magnet as standard equipment, so AirTAC CMSG, DMSG and EMSG reed switches mount directly on the stainless barrel with no special piston order and no waiting. Mount one at each end to signal the trimmed extend position (set anywhere from 210 to 250 mm) and full retraction, giving your controller clean end-of-travel confirmation.
