Airtac MARU Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MARU63X500S
The AirTAC Airtac MARU Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MARU63X500S is a genuine double acting + cushion (up mount) standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 500mm 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.

About the Airtac MARU Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MARU63X500S
Top of the MA range in both bore and stroke, the MARU63X500S pairs the full 500 mm standard travel with 1557.9 N of push at 0.5 MPa - 2181.0 N if you feed it 0.7 MPa. Its stainless round tube is riveted into the aluminium covers, a build that shrugs off mild corrosion far better than painted-steel minis in outdoor or washdown locations.
The up-facing front bracket is part of the cylinder itself, so there is no loose flange to buy or align; bolt it down, connect 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi) filtered air, and run. Count on roughly 935 N of working force at 0.5 MPa, enough to lift about 79 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety factor. The built-in magnet comes fitted, letting CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches report position with no special piston order.

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.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø63mm)
| 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.

Where the Airtac MARU Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MARU63X500S Is Used
Transfer pusher on a stamping press line
The 500 mm reach moves stamped brackets from die to die, and the variable cushion keeps the stop from marking the part.
Slide-bolt drive on a cold-store door
1557.9 N at 0.5 MPa drives a heavy sliding door bolt in a damp chiller, where the stainless barrel resists condensation.
Outfeed ram on a pallet stacker
The full 500 mm stroke pushes a completed pallet stack clear of the roller station for forklift pickup.
Is the Airtac MARU Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MARU63X500S the Right Cylinder?
Nothing in the MAR series out-pushes this bore: the 50 mm size below it manages 981.3 N at 0.5 MPa, while this 63 mm model reaches 1557.9 N. If the load must stay put with the air off, remember the piston will drift - a rod lock is the answer, not the cushion. With a half-metre stroke, guide the load externally; the hard-chrome 16 mm rod is built for thrust, not side bending. Speeds of 30-800 mm/s cover slow transfer moves and quick ejects alike. The M14x1.5 rod thread accepts I or Y knuckles for pivoting linkages, and the magnet is there from the factory for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT / G / NPT)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) is standard for sensors
- ✓ Back cover (CA/U/CM) & mount (FA/LB/SDB)
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Do not dismantle the riveted front/back covers.
- check On first run, back off the cushion screws and release gradually.
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac MARU Stainless Steel Mini Cylinder MARU63X500S FAQ
Push is 1557.9 N and pull 1457.4 N at 0.5 MPa; at 0.7 MPa expect 2181.0 N and 2040.3 N. The theoretical ceiling is 317.7 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The stroke is the 500 mm maximum standard for the 63 mm bore, with a 16 mm hard-chrome rod, 1/4 inch ports and an up-facing integrated bracket.
The high-precision stainless tube and hard-chrome plated rod resist the mild corrosion that quickly pits painted-steel minis, which is why the MAR is a common pick in food and outdoor plants. Proof pressure is 1.5 MPa (215 psi) and the working band is 0.15-1.0 MPa (22-145 psi).
