This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MALJ series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement MBLJ20X200-75, 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 MALJ20 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ20X200-75

About the Airtac MALJ20 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ20X200-75
The AirTAC MALJ20X200-75 is a discontinued adjustable-stroke double-acting mini cylinder. The direct replacement is the MBLJ20X200-75. This 20mm bore pneumatic cylinder uses a rear screw to trim up to 75mm, giving a usable end-position window of 125-200mm. It features a fixed rubber bumper and a carbon-steel rod with a 20um hard chrome plating.
This unit has no magnet (-S omitted), so it cannot accept a position sensor. The rear adjuster acts as a travel stop, not a lock; it sets the end position but will not hold a load without live air. The original MALJ uses threaded covers and legacy CS1-M/DS1-M sensors, while the MBLJ upgrade features a riveted rolling-packed body and modern CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches. Mounting is FA or LB only, with no back cover or SDB option.

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 MBLJ20X200-75 carries the same ratings.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø20mm)

| 0.7 MPa | 185 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 27 kgf | |
MALJ is double-rod: the rear rod that carries the stroke adjuster passes through the rear cover, so both piston faces lose rod area. Push is shown at the annular-area value (conservative), lower than a single-rod MAL push of the same bore. The MBLJ20X200-75 matches these values.

Where the Airtac MALJ20 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ20X200-75 Is Used
Carton Flap Folder

Pneumatic Dispenser
Adjust the rear stopper to meter exact adhesive bead volumes, preventing the 8mm rod from over-traveling and squashing the dispense tip.
Replacing the Airtac MALJ20 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ20X200-75 with MBLJ20X200-75
To replace this MALJ20X200-75, order the MBLJ20X200-75 direct: it matches the 20mm bore, 200mm stroke, 75mm adjust code, G1/8 port, and M8x1.25 rod-end thread. The adjuster is a travel stop, not a lock, so add an external lock for held loads. At 200mm stroke, be mindful of rod-bending under side loads.
Upgrade checklist
- ✓ Order the MBLJ20X200-75 (same bore/stroke/adjust)
- ✓ Same 125–200 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 MBLJ20X200-75 instead of this discontinued model.
