This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MALJ series. You can still order this code here: we ship the drop-in replacement B01-MBLJ32X100-50S, with the same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. The MBLJ replacement upgrades to a riveted rolling-packed body and CMSG / DMSG / EMSG sensors (the MAL used CS1-M / DS1-M).

The AirTAC Airtac B01-MALJ Special Application Cylinder B01-MALJ32X100-50S is a double-acting aluminum mini cylinder with a rear adjustable-stroke stopper: you can trim up to 50 mm, giving a usable end-position window from 50 to 100 mm. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the B01-MBLJ32X100-50S.
The AirTAC B01-MALJ32X100-50S is a discontinued, double-acting mini cylinder with a rear adjustable-stroke stopper. The B01- prefix marks this as an application-dedicated (customer-specified) variant of the base MALJ32X100-50S, mechanically identical to the standard catalog model. The 50 mm adjuster code lets you dial in the end position to any point within a usable 50-100 mm window. At 0.5 MPa, this 32 mm bore delivers 402 N of push force and 346 N of pull force.
The exact drop-in replacement is the MBLJ32X100-50S, matching the bore, stroke, adjust code, and G1/8 port. This MALJ uses threaded covers and a CS1-M / DS1-M magnet sensor, whereas the MBLJ upgrades to a riveted rolling-packed body and CMSG / DMSG / EMSG sensors. The rear adjuster is a travel stop, not a lock; it sets the end position but will not hold a load without live air. End impact is softened by a fixed rubber bumper, as there is no adjustable air cushion.

The rear adjuster is a travel stop, not a lock — it sets the end position but does not hold the load without live air. No back-cover code and no SDB on adjustable-stroke. The B01-MBLJ32X100-50S carries the same ratings.

Single-rod force, same as a standard MAL of this bore. The B01-MBLJ32X100-50S matches these values.

|---|---|
| 32 | Bore size in mm (20/25/32/40). |
| ×100 | Nominal stroke length in mm. |

Replacement: MALJ → MBLJ. No back-cover (CA/U/CM) and no SDB. Mounting: FA / LB.
Dial the 50-100 mm window to set exact Z-axis plunge depth on a PCB depaneling router, using the 402 N push force to maintain a consistent cut without stressing the 32 mm rod.
Fine-tune the rear stop position on a cut-off saw to trim aluminum profiles to length, letting the fixed rubber bumper absorb the 563 N impact at 0.7 MPa without external shock absorbers.
Adjust the reach on a packaging line carton folder to handle varying box heights, using the 346 N pull force to tuck flaps cleanly before the taper section.
To replace this discontinued B01-MALJ32X100-50S, order the drop-in MBLJ32X100-50S. Confirm the 32 mm bore, 100 mm stroke, 50 mm adjust code, PT G1/8 port, and M10x1.25 rod-end thread. Mounting is limited to Basic, FA, or LB (there is no back-cover or SDB option). Because this is an -S magnet model, you must upgrade your sensors from the old CS1-M / DS1-M to the CMSG / DMSG / EMSG family for the MBLJ.
When sizing, step down to the 25 mm bore for lighter loads (245 N push at 0.5 MPa) or step up to the 40 mm bore for higher force (628 N push at 0.5 MPa, which also upgrades the port to G1/4). Remember the adjuster is a stop, not a lock; add an external locking mechanism if you need to hold a load without air pressure.
Upgrade checklist
Yes, the B01-MALJ32X100-50S is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the MBLJ32X100-50S, which matches the 32 mm bore, 100 mm stroke, 50 mm adjust code, and G1/8 port. The B01- prefix simply marks this as an application-dedicated variant of the base MALJ model. You will need to upgrade your sensors from CS1-M / DS1-M to CMSG / DMSG / EMSG for the new riveted body.
The 32 mm bore provides 402 N push and 346 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 563 N push at 0.7 MPa, and a maximum of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The 50 mm adjuster code creates a usable stroke window of 50-100 mm. Note that the adjuster is a travel stop, not a lock; it sets the end position but does not hold the load without live air.
