This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MALJ series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement MBLJ25X100-100, 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 MALJ25 Adjustable Mini Air Cylinder MALJ25X100-100 is a double-acting aluminum mini cylinder with a rear adjustable-stroke stopper: you can trim up to 100 mm, giving a usable end-position window from 0 to 100 mm. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the MBLJ25X100-100.
The AirTAC MALJ25X100-100 is a discontinued double-acting, double-rod mini cylinder with a 25 mm bore and 100 mm stroke. A rear adjuster lets you trim up to 100 mm, giving a usable end-position window of 0-100 mm. The direct replacement is the MBLJ25X100-100, matching bore, stroke, force, and G1/8 port.
This SKU has no magnet, so it cannot take a position sensor. The adjuster is a travel stop, not a lock, and the fixed rubber bumper softens end impact without providing air cushioning. Upgrading to the MBLJ25X100-100 moves you from threaded covers to a riveted rolling-packed body; if you need sensors later, the MBLJ uses CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches instead of the older CS1-M/DS1-M.

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 MBLJ25X100-100 carries the same ratings.
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |

| 0.7 MPa | 289 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 42 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 MBLJ25X100-100 matches these values.

| 25 | Bore size in mm (20/25/32/40). |
| ×100 | Nominal stroke length in mm. |
| -100 | Adjustable amount: trim the end to a 0–100 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.
Fine-tune the exact dispensing height for a fluid syringe probe without re-homing the axis, relying on the 206 N pull to retract the tool safely.
Adjust the stroke on a leather embossing press to switch material thicknesses, letting the fixed rubber bumper absorb the 0.5 MPa impact.
To replace the MALJ25X100-100, order the exact direct replacement MBLJ25X100-100. Confirm the 25 mm bore, 100 mm stroke, 100 mm adjust code, G1/8 port, PT thread, and FA/LB mounting (there is no back cover or SDB option). Because this SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot accept a sensor. The adjuster sets end position but does not hold load without live air.
Upgrade checklist
Yes, the MALJ25X100-100 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the MBLJ25X100-100, which matches the 25 mm bore, 100 mm stroke, 100 mm adjust code, force, and G1/8 port. The MBLJ upgrades the body to a riveted rolling-packed design from the original threaded covers.
The -100 adjust code lets you trim up to 100 mm at the rear, creating a 0-100 mm usable stroke window. The adjuster is a travel stop, not a lock, and cannot hold a load without live air.
