The AirTAC Airtac MAJ Double Rod Adjustable Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MAJ25X40-40S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 40mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a stainless-steel barrel with a hard-chrome-plated rod for reliable, mildly corrosion-resistant service.
The whole stroke is the adjustment here: on the MAJ25X40-40S the external stop screw can shorten the extend stroke by up to the full 40 mm, turning one cylinder into a family of settings for changeover-heavy machines. Double-acting on a riveted stainless round barrel, it produces 245.3 N push and 206.1 N pull at 0.5 MPa, rising to 343.4 N push at 0.7 MPa.
Divide the 245.3 N push by gravity and you get a 25 kg lift equivalent; keep a 2:1 margin and plan vertical lifts of about 12 kg per cylinder at 0.5 MPa. The fixed bumper pads tame end-of-stroke impact at speeds up to 800 mm/s, and since the magnet is standard equipment, CMSG, DMSG and EMSG switches attach with no 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 | 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.

| -40 | 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.
Ejects punched shims from a small press die; operators re-trim the stroke whenever the die changes, with no cylinder swap.
Pushes plastic totes onto a spur line at a warehouse junction, the extend stroke set precisely to the spur width.
Opens and closes a small ball valve on a water-treatment skid, trimmed to the valve travel and monitored by a CMSG switch.
Size against the real alternatives: a bore 20 MA offers 157 N push at 0.5 MPa for light tuck and kick duty, while a bore 32 MAJ raises the ceiling to 402 N for press-fit work; this 25 mm, fully trimmable version covers the span between with one SKU. At 40 mm of stroke side loads stay modest, but keep the 10 mm rod - M10x1.25 thread - guided if the tooling overhangs. FA flange, LB foot, and I or Y knuckles handle mounting. Note the adjuster sets position, not holding: on air loss the rod still drifts, so a valve must gate the supply when the load has to stay put.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa: 245.3 N push, 206.1 N pull. At 0.7 MPa: 343.4 N push. Theoretical maximum: 50.0 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Supply pressure 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), speed 30-800 mm/s, extend trim window 40 mm.
Bore 25 uses a 10 mm hard-chrome plated rod with an M10x1.25 male thread and 1/8" air ports. Mount via the FA flange or LB foot, or pick an I or Y rod knuckle; the adjustable-stroke variant omits the SDB and back-cover codes. The anti-impact bumpers are fixed, and the magnet for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches is already installed.
