The AirTAC Airtac MAJ Double Rod Adjustable Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MAJ40X225-10S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 225mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a stainless-steel barrel with a hard-chrome-plated rod for reliable, mildly corrosion-resistant service.
With a 40 mm bore turning 0.5 MPa air into 628 N of push, the MAJ40X225-10S is AirTAC's double-acting round-body mini cylinder with an adjustable extend stroke: an external stop screw trims the extend position anywhere inside a 10 mm window without swapping cylinders. The 225 mm stroke is a standard length for this bore, whose standard strokes reach 500 mm, and the piston rod is 16 mm hard-chrome-plated steel.
Build quality is where this unit earns its keep. The high-precision stainless barrel is riveted to aluminium-alloy covers, so mild corrosion and washdown spray are non-issues, and the fixed anti-impact pad at each stroke end softens deceleration (it is a bumper, not an adjustable air cushion). Every MAJ ships with a magnet built in, ready for CMSG / DMSG / EMSG switches. For real work at 0.5 MPa, budget roughly 377 N - about 32 kg lifted vertically with a 2:1 margin - rather than the full 628 N rating.

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.

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.

Size down to a 32 mm MA (402.2 N push at 0.5 MPa) when the load is under about 240 N; this 40 mm bore gives 628.3 N of push and 527.8 N of pull at 0.5 MPa, or 879.6 N pushing at 0.7 MPa. It runs on 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) of filtered air and travels 30-800 mm/s. Remember the stop screw is a mechanical end stop for the extend stroke only - with air lost the rod will drift back, so it is not a mid-stroke lock or a load-holding brake. At 225 mm of stroke, keep side loads off the 16 mm rod and guide the workpiece externally if the mass sits off-axis. FA flange or LB foot mounting, with I and Y rod knuckles available; the magnet is standard, so position sensing via CMSG / DMSG / EMSG switches needs no special piston.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 628.3 N and pulls 527.8 N; at 0.7 MPa those rise to 879.6 N push and 738.9 N pull. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is about 128.1 kgf. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), and rod speed 30-800 mm/s. The port is 1/8" and the rod thread is M12x1.25.
No. The external stop screw sets the extend position anywhere inside the 10 mm window; the fixed anti-impact pads at each end simply soften the landing. Adjustable cushioning belongs to the MACJ family. The built-in magnet, standard on every MA cylinder, accepts CMSG / DMSG / EMSG switches with no special-order piston.
