This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MALJ series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement MBLJ25X125-10, 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 MALJ25X125-10 is a double-acting aluminum mini cylinder with a rear adjustable-stroke stopper: you can trim up to 10 mm, giving a usable end-position window from 115 to 125 mm. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the MBLJ25X125-10.
The AirTAC MALJ25X125-10 is a discontinued double-acting, double-rod adjustable-stroke mini cylinder. It features a 25 mm bore and a 125 mm stroke, with a rear screw stopper providing a 10 mm trim. This gives a usable end-position window of 115-125 mm. The direct replacement is the MBLJ25X125-10, matching bore, stroke, force, and port.
The rear adjuster is a travel stop, not a lock; it cannot hold a load without live air. This SKU lacks a magnet (-S), so it cannot accept a position sensor. The original MALJ uses threaded covers and a fixed rubber bumper. The MBLJ upgrade shifts to a riveted rolling-packed body, and if you ever need a sensor on the new line, you must use CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches instead of the legacy 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 MBLJ25X125-10 carries the same ratings.
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 206 N | 206 N |
| 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 MBLJ25X125-10 matches these values.

| 25 | Bore size in mm (20/25/32/40). |
| ×125 | Nominal stroke length in mm. |

| 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 125 mm stroke on a packaging line folder mechanism, trimming 10 mm at the rear to compensate for varying cardboard thicknesses without swapping cylinders.
Use the 206 N pull force to retract an ejection pin in an assembly jig, relying on the fixed rubber bumper to soften the end impact after parts clear the die.
To replace this MALJ25X125-10, order the MBLJ25X125-10. Confirm the 25 mm bore, 125 mm stroke, 10 mm adjust code, PT G1/8 port, and M10x1.25 rod thread. Mounting is FA or LB only; there is no back-cover or SDB option. Because this SKU has no -S magnet, it cannot take a sensor. Since stroke is 125 mm, mind rod-bending under side loads. The adjuster sets end position but is not a lock.
Upgrade checklist
Yes, the MALJ25X125-10 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the MBLJ25X125-10, matching the 25 mm bore, 125 mm stroke, 10 mm adjust code, and G1/8 port. The MBLJ upgrades the body to a riveted rolling-packed design from the original threaded covers.
The 10 mm adjuster is a travel stop that lets you trim the 125 mm stroke down to a 115 mm minimum. It does not lock the load without air pressure.
