The AirTAC Airtac MAJ Double Rod Adjustable Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MAJ40X450-50S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 450mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a stainless-steel barrel with a hard-chrome-plated rod for reliable, mildly corrosion-resistant service.
Wide-trim flexibility defines the MAJ40X450-50S: a 50 mm adjustable window lets the extend stroke land anywhere from 400 to 450 mm after installation, set by an external stop screw rather than a reorder. Underneath sits the standard 40 mm MA powerplant - 628.3 N push, 527.8 N pull at 0.5 MPa, climbing to 879.6 N at 0.7 MPa - moving a 16 mm hard-chrome rod at 30-800 mm/s.
The riveted round body pairs a stainless barrel with aluminium-alloy covers, so humid food-plant or outdoor air does not eat the housing the way it does painted minis. Built into every piston is the position magnet, standard, ready for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches. As a buyer rule of thumb, size for about 377 N of real push at 0.5 MPa; that is a vertical lift of roughly 32 kg with a 2:1 safety factor.

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.

|---|---|
| 40 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×450 | Stroke length in mm. |
| -50 | 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.
Drawing heavy fabric curtains across a folding machine, where the 50 mm window absorbs cloth stretch from season to season.
Metering metal scrap flow under a CNC line with 628.3 N of push at 0.5 MPa, the stainless barrel shrugging off coolant mist.
Swinging a fixture arm into place on a car-frame jig, trimming the stroke after retooling without pulling the cylinder off the LB foot.
If the 50 mm window is more trim than the machine needs, the -20 and -30 versions of the same 450 mm cylinder cost less; if less force is needed, the MAJ32 bore still gives 402.2 N at 0.5 MPa. For loads above this bore's 128.1 kgf theoretical ceiling, move to the cushioned MACJ family. The adjuster is a hard end stop on the extend side only - under air loss the rod is free to move, so add a separate locking solution where position must be held. FA flange and LB foot mounts cover static fixings, I and Y knuckles handle pivoting rod ends, and at 450 mm of stroke the 16 mm rod should see its load guided, not side-loaded.
Quick checklist
Push 628.3 N and pull 527.8 N at 0.5 MPa; 879.6 N and 738.9 N at 0.7 MPa; theoretical peak 128.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The bore takes 1/8" ports, runs 30-800 mm/s, and accepts 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) with a 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof rating.
An external stop screw on the head limits rod extension anywhere within the ordered 50 mm window, so the effective extend stroke can be shortened on site from 450 mm down to 400 mm. It cannot extend past the ordered stroke, and it works as a mechanical stop plus fixed bumper - not an adjustable air cushion and not a load brake.
