The AirTAC Airtac MAJ Double Rod Adjustable Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MAJ32X160-50S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 160mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a stainless-steel barrel with a hard-chrome-plated rod for reliable, mildly corrosion-resistant service.
Lift-wise, this bore is a 41 kgf machine at 0.5 MPa (402.2 N push, 345.6 N pull), so with a 2:1 margin plan on raising roughly 20 kg vertically - a comfortable match for small gates, trays and nests. MAJ32X160-50S is double acting with a 50 mm adjustable extend window: the stop screw lets the crew dial the 160 mm stroke down on the machine itself. The stainless round barrel with a hard-chrome plated rod takes damp shops and washdown in stride, an edge over painted or plain-aluminium minis.
Inside, a two-way seal on the piston stores its own grease, and fixed bumper pads take the sting out of stroke ends without pretending to be an adjustable cushion. Magnet comes fitted as standard - CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches just clip on - and 1/8" ports with an M10x1.25 rod thread keep plumbing simple. Remember the adjuster is a mechanical stop for the extend direction, never a load-holding lock.

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.

| 0.7 MPa | 563 N | 484 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 82 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.
Kicks small cartons between lanes on a pharmaceutical cartoning line; 402 N of push at 0.5 MPa handles the side sweep, and the 50 mm window absorbs carton size changes.
Advances a leak-test probe into a fitting on an HVAC coil test bench, with the trim window letting engineers re-zero the probe seat between part revisions.
Raises a light inspection hatch on a commercial oven assembly line; halved for a 2:1 margin the bore lifts about 20 kg vertically, matching typical stainless hatch weights.
Compare before you commit: a 25 mm bore manages 245.3 N at 0.5 MPa, while a 40 mm jumps to 628.3 N - this 32 mm sits in the middle at 402.2 N push, equal to about 41 kgf of vertical lift, or roughly 20 kg with the 2:1 margin applied. The 50 mm trim window is wide enough to re-stage tooling between product sizes. Foot (LB) or flange (FA) mounting, I and Y knuckles, and the factory-fitted magnet for CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches round out the spec. The stop screw sets an end position only; it will not lock the piston against drifting when air is removed.
Quick checklist
Push at 0.5 MPa is 402.2 N and pull is 345.6 N; at 0.7 MPa expect 563 N push and 483.8 N pull, with a theoretical 82 kgf ceiling at 1.0 MPa. The stop screw trims the extend stroke within the 50 mm window; it is a mechanical end stop, so the rod still drifts if air is lost and it cannot hold a load mid-stroke.
The barrel is stainless steel and the 12 mm piston rod is hard-chrome plated carbon steel (20 um), while the aluminium covers are rolled onto the tube in a riveted pack. That combination resists mild corrosion and routine washdown far better than painted-steel minis, which is why the MAJ suits food, outdoor and damp-shop duty. Ports are 1/8" and the rod thread is M10x1.25.
