The AirTAC Airtac MAJ Double Rod Adjustable Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MAJ40X80-40S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 80mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a stainless-steel barrel with a hard-chrome-plated rod for reliable, mildly corrosion-resistant service.
A 40 mm bore gives the MAJ40X80-40S real muscle - 628.3 N forward at 0.5 MPa - while the -40S code sets a 40 mm window in which the stop screw shortens the extend stroke on site. Double-acting design means the return is also air powered, running anywhere in the 30-800 mm/s speed band.
The riveted stainless body stays compact and sealed, and the chrome-plated rod with aluminium covers holds up in humid workshops that pit painted cylinders. On vertical jobs the rod can raise about 32 kg at 0.5 MPa with a 2:1 margin already applied, enough for small jigs or a stack of castings. Bumper pads at each end absorb the end-of-stroke shock, and the standard magnet lets a CMSG or DMSG sensor drop straight on without special-order parts.

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. |
| ×80 | Stroke length in mm. |
| -40 | 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.
Kicks off-spec bottles or tins sideways off a conveyor; the 527.8 N return force retracts the blade quickly between products.
Stakes bushings into plastic housings on a small assembly press, where the 879.6 N available at 0.7 MPa is ample.
Locks a rotary dial table at each station, with the 40 mm window tuned to the pinning depth of individual pallets.
Compare the 32 mm bore (402.2 N push at 0.5 MPa) before stepping up - if your fixture needs under 400 N, the smaller cylinder saves air and space. At 40 mm this is the largest MAJ bore. Note the trim screw sets stroke length only; it is not a brake, and a piston losing air will still move. FA and LB mounts plus I / Y knuckles cover most fixturing, and every unit ships with the magnet already fitted, so a CMSG switch fits without special-order parts.
Quick checklist
Full set: 628.3 N push and 527.8 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 879.6 N push and 738.9 N pull at 0.7 MPa, and a 128.1 kgf theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa. Supply pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof 1.5 MPa (215 psi), and the 40 mm bore takes 1/8" ports.
No. Every MA-series cylinder, the MAJ40X80-40S included, has the magnet built in as standard, so AirTAC CMSG, DMSG and EMSG reed or Hall switches mount directly on the barrel.
