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-MBLJ40X125-30S, 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).

The AirTAC Airtac B01-MALJ Special Application Cylinder B01-MALJ40X125-30S 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 95 to 125 mm. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the B01-MBLJ40X125-30S.
The B01-MALJ40X125-30S is a discontinued double-acting mini cylinder. The B01- prefix marks this as an AirTAC application-dedicated (customer-specified) variant of the base MALJ40X125-30S, mechanically identical to the standard unit. It features a 40mm bore, a 125mm stroke, and a 30mm rear adjuster, giving a usable end-position window of 95-125mm. It delivers 628N push and 528N pull at 0.5MPa. The exact drop-in replacement is the MBLJ40X125-30S, matching the bore, stroke, force, and G1/4 port.
The rear screw lets you fine-tune the reach without external stops. Remember the adjuster is a travel stop, not a lock; it cannot hold a load without live air. This unit has a fixed rubber bumper, not an adjustable air cushion. The MALJ uses threaded covers and a CS1-M/DS1-M magnet, whereas the MBLJ upgrade features a riveted rolling-packed body and CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. There is no back-cover or SDB option; mounting is FA or LB only.

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-MBLJ40X125-30S carries the same ratings.
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |

| 0.5 MPa | 628 N | 528 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 880 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 128 kgf | |
Single-rod force, same as a standard MAL of this bore. The B01-MBLJ40X125-30S matches these values.
| MALJ | Adjustable-stroke aluminum mini cylinder, double acting (discontinued). |
|---|---|
| 40 | Bore size in mm (20/25/32/40). |
| ×125 | Nominal stroke length in mm. |
| -30 | Adjustable amount: trim the end to a 95–125 mm window. |
| S | Optional magnet for a CS1-M / DS1-M sensor (MBLJ uses CMSG/DMSG/EMSG). |
Replacement: MALJ → MBLJ. No back-cover (CA/U/CM) and no SDB. Mounting: FA / LB.
Dial in the 95-125mm reach on an electronics connector line to seat pins precisely without re machining the headstock.
Set a precise 628N push at 0.5MPa to form plastic trays, tweaking the 30mm adjuster to alter draw depth on the fly.
Trim the cylinder end position to clamp varying panel widths securely against the fence using the fixed rubber bumper.
To replace this B01-MALJ40X125-30S with the MBLJ40X125-30S, confirm the 40mm bore, 125mm stroke, 30mm adjust code, G1/4 PT port, and FA/LB mounting. Your CS1-M/DS1-M sensors must change to CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches. The adjuster sets the 95-125mm end position but is a stop, not a lock; use an external lock for held loads. If sizing differently, step down to a 32mm bore for 402N push at 0.5MPa, or step up if you exceed the 128kgf max at 1.0MPa. At 125mm stroke, minimize side-load to prevent rod bending.
Upgrade checklist
Yes, it is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the MBLJ40X125-30S, which matches the 40mm bore, 125mm stroke, 30mm adjuster, and G1/4 port. The B01- prefix simply denotes an application-dedicated build of the standard MALJ. You will need to upgrade your sensors from CS1-M/DS1-M to CMSG/DMSG/EMSG.
The usable stroke window is 95-125mm via the 30mm rear adjuster. 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 adjuster is a travel stop, not a lock.
