The AirTAC Airtac MAJ Double Rod Adjustable Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MAJ40X150-20S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 150mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a stainless-steel barrel with a hard-chrome-plated rod for reliable, mildly corrosion-resistant service.
Twenty millimetres of on-site trim is a practical middle ground for lines re-tooled mid-shift: the MAJ40X150-20S extends under full air pressure to 150 mm, or stops anywhere inside a 20 mm window once the external screw is set. Output at 0.5 MPa is 628.3 N, rising to 879.6 N at 0.7 MPa, figures worth checking against a 32 mm bore (402.2 N) before you commit to a larger frame.
The barrel is stainless steel rolled over aluminium covers, a compact riveted package that tolerates splash in food and packing halls better than painted housings. It runs 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof, on 40 um filtered air between -20 and +70 C. For lift duty, 0.5 MPa output equates to roughly 64 kgf theoretical, or about 32 kg vertical with a 2:1 safety margin.

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 | 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.

| ×150 | Stroke length in mm. |
| -20 | 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.
Folds top flaps on a case packer, using the 20 mm window to absorb minor flap-height changes without re-tubing.
Kicks small totes onto a reject lane; 628 N of push at 0.5 MPa clears the lane in a single stroke.
Seats inserts in a bench jig before overmoulding, with 879.6 N on tap if supply is raised to 0.7 MPa.
There is no larger MA bore, so 40 mm tops this family: 628.3 N push at 0.5 MPa, roughly 377 N once derated for real work. Drop to a 32 mm MA only when loads stay under about 350 N. The 20 mm window trims extend travel downward from 150 mm; it is an end stop rather than a mid-stroke lock, so handle a drifting piston under air loss with a valve, not the adjuster. FA flange, LB foot and I or Y knuckles cover the mounting map, and the standard magnet pairs with CMSG or DMSG switches out of the box.
Quick checklist
Push is 628.3 N and pull 527.8 N at 0.5 MPa; at 0.7 MPa expect 879.6 N and 738.9 N. The theoretical maximum is 128.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa. All figures assume 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) supply, 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof and 30-800 mm/s travel.
It carries fixed anti-impact bumper pads that soften contact at both ends; they decelerate but cannot be tuned. Adjustable air cushioning belongs to the MACJ family, so choose that model if you need throttleable end damping.
