The AirTAC Airtac MAJ Double Rod Adjustable Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MAJ40X300-30S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 300mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a stainless-steel barrel with a hard-chrome-plated rod for reliable, mildly corrosion-resistant service.
Pushing 628.3 N at 0.5 MPa and 879.6 N at 0.7 MPa, this 40 mm bore double-acting cylinder gives machine builders real headroom, and its 30 mm adjustable extend window absorbs the fixture tolerances that would otherwise force a redesign. Air supply can sit anywhere in 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), with stroke speeds from 30 to 800 mm/s.
Unlike thin-wall painted minis, the MA series rivets aluminium-alloy covers onto a stainless round barrel and finishes the 16 mm piston rod with 20 um of hard chrome, an assembly that tolerates damp, dusty or lightly washed environments. Every piston carries a magnet as standard, so CMSG / DMSG / EMSG switches mount without ordering options. In practice, size actuators around 377 N of working force at 0.5 MPa; the bore will also lift about 32 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin intact.

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 | 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.
Trimming 30 mm lets the pad adapt to two pallet sizes on a warehouse stacker attachment, drawing on 879.6 N of push at 0.7 MPa to grip dense loads without re-fixturing.
The 64 kgf vertical thrust class (about 32 kg lifted at 2:1) presses lids onto 200 L drums in a chemical blending room, where the stainless barrel stands up to solvent vapor.
A hard-chrome 16 mm rod and riveted stainless barrel endure sawdust and humidity at a small mill, with the 30 mm window tuned so the stop clears each log specification.
Compare against the smaller 32 mm MA bore first: at 0.5 MPa it manages only 402.2 N push / 345.6 N pull, so jobs above roughly 400 N belong here on the 40 mm bore, the largest the series reaches. With a 300 mm stroke, watch buckling and side loads - support the load in external guides rather than cantilevering it off the rod.
The -30 stop sets where extension ends; on sudden air loss the piston is free to move, so position holding must come from valving, not this screw. FA flange and LB foot mounts, plus I or Y rod knuckles, cover most frame layouts, and the standard magnet pairs with all three switch types.
Quick checklist
Expect 628.3 N push and 527.8 N pull at 0.5 MPa, scaling to 879.6 N push and 738.9 N pull at 0.7 MPa; theoretical peak output is 128.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The 40 mm bore is plumbed with 1/8" ports, the 16 mm rod is threaded M12x1.25, and rod speed covers 30-800 mm/s over a 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) supply.
Choose FA flange or LB foot for the body, and add an I or Y rod knuckle where the load pivots. Because the magnet is built in rather than sold as an option, CMSG, DMSG and EMSG switches attach directly to the stainless barrel for position feedback. Note that the adjustable version carries no SDB and no back-cover code.
