The AirTAC Airtac MARU Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MARU20X350S is a genuine double acting + cushion (up mount) standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø20mm bore and 350mm stroke, 1/8" 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.
When a compact 20 mm cylinder is too short for the travel, this 350 mm stroke MAR keeps the same small bore in a longer body: 157 N forward, 132 N back at 0.5 MPa, double acting with variable cushions you can tune to stop the rod quietly even near the top of the 30-800 mm/s range. The up-facing bracket on the front cover is integral to the design, so it hangs from a machine plate without buying an accessory mount.
A long 8 mm rod needs friendly treatment - keep side loads off it and guide the part - and the stainless barrel with its hard-chrome plated rod will hold up in damp or washdown-adjacent corners. Budget roughly 94 N of real push at 0.5 MPa, or about 8 kg of vertical lift with a 2:1 margin; the piston magnet comes standard for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switch fitting.

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 | 157 N | 132 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 220 N | 185 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 32 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.
Raises a water-quality probe 350 mm clear of a river monitoring station between readings, the stainless body happy in permanent outdoor duty.
Flips a pouch diverter gate between two chutes on a snack-food packaging line, cushioned both ways so the gate never slams.
Cycles an automotive toggle switch on a durability rig, the long stroke clearing the fixture's load path between cycles.
The 20 mm bore gives 157 N of push at 0.5 MPa; a 25 mm MAR raises that to 245 N and a 32 mm to 402 N, so choose by load rather than fitting size. At 350 mm the stroke is well inside the 500 mm standard range, though the long 8 mm rod still deserves external guidance to keep bending loads off it.
PT is the default thread in the 1/8" ports with G and NPT available to order, and the U bracket is part of the front cover - no accessory foot required. Because nothing in a plain MAR holds position on air loss, plan a rod lock for any clamped or lifted state; the built-in magnet already supports CMSG, DMSG and EMSG sensing.
Quick checklist
Force output: 157.0 N forward and 131.9 N back at 0.5 MPa, climbing to 219.8 N and 184.7 N at 0.7 MPa, with 32.0 kgf theoretical at 1.0 MPa. Operating window is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), speed 30-800 mm/s, the 1/8" ports are PT threaded by default, and the rod thread is M8x1.25.
Both ends carry an adjustable air cushion. Open the needle screws fully at startup, then close them slowly until the load lands quietly - that protects the aluminium covers and lets you run faster or carry more without end-of-stroke hammering. Recheck the setting if the supply pressure or load changes.
