The AirTAC Airtac MARU Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MARU20X75S is a genuine double acting + cushion (up mount) standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø20mm 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. A variable air cushion at both ends lets you tune end-of-stroke deceleration on site.
Built on AirTAC's rolling-packed MA platform, the MARU20X75S gives you a 20 mm bore and a 75 mm stroke in a round stainless body that stands up to moisture, splash and outdoor air. A hard-chrome plated 8 mm carbon-steel rod runs in grease-retaining seals, and the double-acting piston carries an adjustable air cushion at each end of travel. The top (U) bracket is integral to the front cover and the magnet comes fitted, so CMSG, DMSG and EMSG switches drop straight on.
At 0.5 MPa you get 157 N of push and 131.9 N of pull; at 0.7 MPa extend force rises to 219.8 N. Keep the working share near 94 N and the mechanism stays crisp through long duty cycles. For vertical jobs, halving the gravity equivalent means this rod lifts about 8 kg with a 2:1 margin - enough for small slides, doors and sampling arms.

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.

| U | Front-cover mount: U = up (top) mounting. |
| 20 | Bore size in mm. |

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.
Raising a light sampling hatch at the drum: the about-8 kg vertical capacity with a 2:1 reserve handles the door plus hinge friction, and the stainless barrel suits a steam-and-chaff environment.
Swinging a cable guide clear during coil changes needs modest, repeatable force; the standard magnet confirms the parked position to the machine controller.
Pressing labels onto small tins at about 90 N of working force; the cushion gives a soft landing at each end of the 75 mm stroke so labels seat without wrinkles.
This 75 mm stroke is still a standard item - MAR cylinders accept up to 500 mm before a made-to-order build kicks in - and non-standard strokes can be quoted if you need more travel. Step up to a 25 mm bore for 245 N at 0.5 MPa or a 32 mm bore for 402 N when the load outgrows the 157 N class. At 75 mm of stroke, watch rod alignment: an off-axis load will side-load the 8 mm rod, so add an external guide where the part can pivot.
Do not count on the MARU20X75S to hold a mid-stroke position - with no air it gives way, since the cushion is damping, not locking. Specify a rod lock if that matters. Connections are 1/8" ports; I and Y rod knuckles thread onto the M8x1.25 male end.
Quick checklist
Push 157 N and pull 131.9 N at 0.5 MPa; push 219.8 N and pull 184.7 N at 0.7 MPa; theoretical maximum 32 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating band is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi), proof pressure 1.5 MPa (215 psi), air filtered to 40 um.
The top mounting bracket is built into the front cover and the position-sensing magnet is factory-fitted, so nothing extra needs ordering for a basic install; only the CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switch itself is added separately. Thread options are PT (blank), G or NPT, with 1/8" ports on this 20 mm bore.
