The AirTAC Airtac MAJ Double Rod Adjustable Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MAJ40X25-20S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 25mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a stainless-steel barrel with a hard-chrome-plated rod for reliable, mildly corrosion-resistant service.
With only 25 mm of travel but a full 40 mm bore, this MAJ40X25-20S is the pick for short, high-force moves where the extend end must land precisely - the stop screw trims the stroke by up to 20 mm on site. Expect 628.3 N of push and 527.8 N of pull at 0.5 MPa (0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) supply, 30-800 mm/s speed).
Build quality separates it from commodity minis: a riveted stainless body, a 20 um hard-chrome plated rod and grease-retaining two-way piston seals. The magnet comes installed, so CMSG, DMSG and EMSG sensors drop on for end-position checks. For sizing, the 0.5 MPa push converts to a vertical lift of about 32 kg with a 2:1 margin, or about 377 N of practical working thrust once de-rated.

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.
| MAJ | Standard round-body mini cylinder (adjustable-stroke). |
|---|---|
| 40 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×25 | 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.
Pops up to halt cartons at the weigh station; 628.3 N push at 0.5 MPa stops full cases instantly.
Squeezes steel brackets against a nest during robotic handling; the 20 mm trim fine-tunes clamping depth.
Locks a rotary indexing table in position between moves on a small assembly dial.
Nothing in the MAJ range out-muscles the 40 mm bore, so step down to MAJ32 (402.2 N at 0.5 MPa) or MAJ16 (100.5 N) for lighter duty. Mount by FA flange or LB foot and add an I or Y knuckle if a linkage is required; adjustable builds skip the SDB option. Treat the stop screw as an end-position setter only - on air loss the piston can still be driven back, since it is no substitute for a locking valve. With such a short stroke, rod bending is a non-issue, but alignment still matters for seal life.
Quick checklist
Yes. Push at 0.5 MPa is 628.3 N; pull at 0.5 MPa is 527.8 N; push at 0.7 MPa reaches 879.6 N; and theoretical maximum force is 128.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Rod diameter is 16 mm and the port is 1/8".
FA flange and LB foot are the standard mounts, with I and Y rod knuckles available for linkages - the adjustable version has no SDB or back-cover code. Thread options are PT (default), G or NPT on the 1/8" port.
