The AirTAC Airtac MARF Stainless Steel Mini Air Cylinder MARF63X150S is a genuine double acting + cushion (front mount) standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 150mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and a stainless-steel barrel with a hard-chrome-plated rod for reliable, mildly corrosion-resistant service. A variable air cushion at both ends lets you tune end-of-stroke deceleration on site.
Washdown and humid lines favour the MARF63X150S: a 150 mm stroke of 63 mm bore pushing 1557.9 N and pulling 1457.4 N at 0.5 MPa (72 psi), double acting with a variable cushion on both ends. Painted mini cylinders flake and rust in these spots, while the riveted stainless barrel and 20 um hard-chrome rod simply rinse off.
Dial the end-of-stroke cushions once and heavy loads can travel near the 800 mm/s ceiling without banging the caps. Sized realistically, the bore gives about 935 N of dependable work push at 0.5 MPa - close to 79 kg lifted vertically with a 2:1 margin. Because every unit ships with an internal magnet, EMSG or CMSG sensors mount on the tube as a standard fit.

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 | 1559 N | 1458 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 2182 N | 2041 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 318 kgf | |
Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a safety margin.
| MAR | Standard round-body mini cylinder (double-acting, integrated mount, variable cushion). |
|---|---|
| F | Front-cover mount: F = front-flange mounting. |
| 63 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×150 | Stroke length in mm. |
| -S | Built-in magnet for CMSG / DMSG / EMSG sensors (standard on MA series). |
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.
Opens a sample valve on a dairy CIP skid where painted cylinders corrode; the stainless barrel and chrome rod rinse clean between shifts.
Raises a sliding steel guard on a packaging machine; the 150 mm stroke matches the guard travel and the pull side carries the closing force.
Drives a small sluice gate on a wastewater channel; 1557.9 N at 0.5 MPa overcomes gate friction and grit build-up in the guides.
A 50 mm MAR gives 981.3 N at 0.5 MPa, roughly 63% of what this bore delivers, so downsize if the load is light. With 150 mm of unsupported stroke, guide the load externally so bending stays away from the 16 mm chrome rod. Remember the piston will drift if supply air fails; only a separate rod lock holds position. Mounting is built in - the front flange is part of the body, no foot or flange accessory to order.
Quick checklist
Expect 1557.9 N push and 1457.4 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 2181.0 N push and 2040.3 N pull at 0.7 MPa, and a theoretical peak of 317.7 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The air supply can span 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) and proof pressure is 1.5 MPa (215 psi).
No. A magnet is built into the piston as standard on every MA-series cylinder, so CMSG, DMSG or EMSG reed switches clamp straight onto the stainless tube and detect the end positions out of the box. No special order, no added piston, and the switches can be repositioned anywhere along the 150 mm stroke.
