The AirTAC Airtac MAJ Double Rod Adjustable Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MAJ40X140-30S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 140mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a stainless-steel barrel with a hard-chrome-plated rod for reliable, mildly corrosion-resistant service.
With a 30 mm adjustment window around a 140 mm stroke, this MAJ40 lets a technician dial in the extend position on the machine: the external stop screw trims the stroke down by up to 30 mm and holds that setting mechanically. Double-acting throughout, it delivers 628 N pushing and 528 N pulling at 0.5 MPa, rising to 880 N at 0.7 MPa.
Construction is the compact MA recipe: a stainless round barrel with riveted aluminium-alloy covers and a 16 mm hard-chrome steel rod that tolerates humid, washed-down corners far better than painted minis. Bumper pads are fixed at both stroke ends to soften impact - they are not an adjustable cushion; the MACJ carries that feature. Budget roughly 377 N for real work at 0.5 MPa, and figure on lifting about 32 kg vertically once a 2:1 margin is kept on the theoretical 64 kg.

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.

| 0.5 MPa | 628 N | 528 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 880 N | 739 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 128 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.
Ejects stamped brackets from a mechanical press die; the 30 mm window lets die setters shorten the kick after tooling changes, pushing 628 N at 0.5 MPa.
Opens a slide gate under a small feed hopper dispensing granulate; the 140 mm stroke clears the gate pocket and the trim sets exactly how far the gate opens.
Engages an indexing pin on a rotary assembly table; the stop screw pins the engaging depth so each station lands in the same angular position.
Sizing check: a MAJ32X140 yields 402 N at 0.5 MPa; if the load needs more, this 40 mm bore is the largest MA makes, at 628 N. Pair the 16 mm male rod thread (M12x1.25) with an I or Y knuckle for swivelling loads, or fix the body via FA flange or LB feet - and the standard built-in magnet accepts CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches on the barrel. The adjuster shortens the extend stroke only and is an end stop, not a brake; on air loss the piston moves freely. Over 140 mm of travel, keep the load aligned so side bending stays off the rod.
Quick checklist
This 40 mm bore produces 628 N push and 528 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 880 N push and 739 N pull at 0.7 MPa, and up to 128.1 kgf theoretically at 1.0 MPa. Supply is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) of 40 um filtered air; proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi); rod speed 30-800 mm/s.
They soften the last part of travel to cut noise and end-of-stroke shock, but they are fixed - there is no screw to adjust deceleration. If the machine needs adjustable cushioning, the MACJ series is the version with that feature.
