The AirTAC Airtac MAJ Double Rod Adjustable Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MAJ40X75-40S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 75mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a stainless-steel barrel with a hard-chrome-plated rod for reliable, mildly corrosion-resistant service.
With the widest window in this family, the MAJ40X75-40S lets maintenance teams pull the extend stroke back anywhere between 35 and 75 mm using nothing more than the external stop screw. Power comes from the largest MA bore: 628.3 N forward and 527.8 N back at 0.5 MPa, which translates to roughly 377 N of dependable working push at the usual 60 percent sizing margin.
The stainless round barrel is rolled and riveted to its aluminium covers, a compact body that fits cramped machine frames and tolerates humid or outdoor air far better than painted-steel minis. Related options if this one is close: MA for a fixed stroke, MACJ when an adjustable cushion is also needed, MAD for through-rod duty.

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.
Retrofitting older transfer machines, engineers use the 40 mm window to match legacy fixture positions without drilling new holes, trusting 628.3 N at 0.5 MPa to seat dies.
Sliding machine covers and small gates in outdoor enclosures suit the corrosion-resistant stainless body, with the stop screw trimming travel to the actual opening width.
A light compacting head on packaging waste gets about 377 N of real working force, enough for bin-sized densifying tasks at cycle speeds up to 800 mm/s.
Downsizing to the 32 mm bore costs force - 402.2 N at 0.5 MPa - so choose it only below about 240 N of working load. On vertical lifts the 628.3 N push equates to about 64 kg, or 32 kg with a 2:1 margin; the stop screw is an end stop, not a brake, so an unsupported load will still sag on air loss. Fix with FA flange or LB foot, act the rod through an I or Y knuckle, and take end signals from CMSG or DMSG switches onto the standard magnet.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa: 628.3 N push, 527.8 N pull. At 0.7 MPa: 879.6 N push, 738.9 N pull. Theoretical maximum 128.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The cylinder is double-acting with the extend stroke adjustable down to 35 mm from 75 mm via the -40 window, running on 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) filtered air at 30-800 mm/s with 1/8" ports.
The stop screw sets a mechanical limit at the extend end only; it shortens travel, never extends it past the ordered 75 mm, and it is not a load-holding brake. With pressure removed the rod can still be driven back by the load, so vertical or heavy duties need an external lock or counterbalance. The fixed bumper pads at each end simply soften the landing.
