The AirTAC Airtac MARU Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MARU50X100S is a genuine double acting + cushion (up mount) standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 100mm 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.
Step up to the 50 mm bore and the MARU50X100S doubles the muscle: 981 N of push and 881 N of pull at 0.5 MPa, climbing to 1374 N at 0.7 MPa, with 200 kgf available at the 1.0 MPa theoretical maximum. The 100 mm stroke, double-acting design and variable cushions at each end make it a comfortable driver for heavier clamping and pushing jobs, and the up-mount bracket ships as part of the cylinder.
The 1/4" ports feed this bigger bore, and the stainless barrel with its hard-chrome 16 mm rod holds up where painted mini bodies flake. Set the cushion screws on commissioning and you can use the full 30-800 mm/s speed window without hammering the covers. A standard magnet welcomes CMSG or EMSG switches out of the box. Working numbers: about 589 N of usable push at 0.5 MPa, equal to lifting some 50 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin.

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.

| 0.7 MPa | 1374 N | 1234 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 200 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.
Presses bearings or bushings into housings on a bench ram, using about 589 N of usable push at 0.5 MPa for the job.
Operates a clamp arm on a strapping or palletising fixture, with 100 mm of travel to close on varying part heights.
Diverts heavy cartons off a conveyor with a decisive 981 N push, cushions tuned so the gate does not slam home.
This 50 mm bore sits above the 40 mm MAR (628 N at 0.5 MPa) and below the 63 mm size (1558 N at 0.5 MPa), so loads from 50 to 90 kg have a clear home. Like every plain MAR it will not hold position on air loss; the cushion only dampens the stroke end, so pair it with a rod lock for secure stops. The up bracket is integral, the 1/4" ports allow faster filling, and DMSG / EMSG switches attach directly thanks to the standard magnet.
Quick checklist
The 50 mm bore pushes 981 N and pulls 881 N at 0.5 MPa; at 0.7 MPa push is 1374 N. The theoretical maximum at 1.0 MPa is 200 kgf. It runs on 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) air and withstands 1.5 MPa (215 psi) proof pressure.
The up-mount bracket is integral to the cylinder, so it bolts to the machine with no added flange or foot. Ports are 1/4", matched to the 50 mm bore, and the standard magnet accepts CMSG / DMSG / EMSG switches. Rod thread is M14x1.5 for I or Y knuckles.
