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-MBLJ40X100-30S, 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).
Airtac B01-MALJ Special Application Cylinder B01-MALJ40X100-30S
The AirTAC Airtac B01-MALJ Special Application Cylinder B01-MALJ40X100-30S is a double-acting aluminum mini cylinder with a rear adjustable-stroke stopper: you can trim up to 30 mm, giving a usable end-position window from 70 to 100 mm. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the B01-MBLJ40X100-30S.

About the Airtac B01-MALJ Special Application Cylinder B01-MALJ40X100-30S
The AirTAC B01-MALJ40X100-30S is a discontinued double-acting mini cylinder. The leading B01- prefix marks this as an application-dedicated (customer-specified) variant of the base MALJ40X100-30S, meaning it is mechanically identical to the standard model. It features a 40mm bore, a 100mm stroke, and a rear screw stopper that allows you to trim up to 30mm, creating a usable end-position window of 70-100mm. Delivering 628N push and 528N pull force at 0.5MPa, it uses a fixed rubber bumper and a G1/4 port.
The exact drop-in replacement is the MBLJ40X100-30S, sharing the same bore, stroke, adjust code, and force ratings. The original MALJ uses threaded covers and a CS1-M / DS1-M magnet sensor family, while the MBLJ upgrades to a riveted rolling-packed body and CMSG / DMSG / EMSG sensors. Remember that the rear adjuster is a travel stop, not a lock; it sets the end position but cannot hold a load without live air pressure.

Where the Airtac B01-MALJ Special Application Cylinder B01-MALJ40X100-30S Is Used
PCB Depaneling Router
Dial in the 70-100mm reach window to set the exact cutting depth on a router bit, using the 628N push force to maintain a rigid cut without over-traveling into the fixture.
Pneumatic Rivet Press
Fine-tune the 100mm stroke by up to 30mm at the rear stopper to accommodate varying panel thicknesses, ensuring the 880N force at 0.7MPa seats rivets perfectly without bottoming out.
Packaging Carton Flap Folder
Adjust the end position on the fly to match different box heights, using the fixed rubber bumper to soften the impact of the 40mm bore rod at the end of every cycle.
Replacing the Airtac B01-MALJ Special Application Cylinder B01-MALJ40X100-30S with B01-MBLJ40X100-30S
To replace this B01-MALJ40X100-30S with the MBLJ40X100-30S, confirm the 40mm bore, 100mm stroke, 30mm adjust code, G1/4 port, and PT thread form. Mounting is limited to Basic, FA, or LB; there is no back-cover or SDB option. Because this is a -S magnet model, you must upgrade your sensors from the old CS1-M / DS1-M switches to the CMSG / DMSG / EMSG family. The adjuster is a travel stop, not a lock, so add an external lock for held loads.
When sizing, you can step down to a 32mm bore for 402N push at 0.5MPa, or step up to a larger ISO cylinder if you need more force. The 100mm stroke is well within standard limits, so no side-load concerns apply here.
Upgrade checklist
- ✓ Order the B01-MBLJ40X100-30S (same bore/stroke/adjust)
- ✓ Same 70–100 mm adjustable window
- ✓ Adjuster is a stop, not a lock
- ✓ No back cover / SDB — plan an FA/LB mount
- ✓ Sensor: swap CS1-M/DS1-M → CMSG/DMSG/EMSG
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.1 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check The rear adjuster sets the end position — it is not a load lock.
- check No back-cover / SDB on adjustable-stroke — use FA / LB.
- check Front/rear covers are threaded — not for field disassembly.
- check For new builds, specify the B01-MBLJ40X100-30S instead of this discontinued model.
Airtac B01-MALJ Special Application Cylinder B01-MALJ40X100-30S FAQ
Yes, the B01-MALJ40X100-30S is discontinued. The B01- prefix simply marks it as an application-dedicated variant of the base MALJ40X100-30S. The exact drop-in replacement is the MBLJ40X100-30S, which matches the 40mm bore, 100mm stroke, 30mm adjust code, and force ratings. You will need to upgrade your sensors from CS1-M / DS1-M to CMSG / DMSG / EMSG.
The 30mm adjust code lets you trim the 100mm stroke at the rear, creating a usable end-position window of 70-100mm. The 40mm bore provides 628N push and 528N pull at 0.5MPa, 880N push at 0.7MPa, and a maximum of 128kgf at 1.0MPa. The rear screw acts as a travel stop, not a lock, and will not hold a load without live air.
