This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MALJ series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement MBLJ25X125-30, 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 MALJ25X125-30 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 direct replacement is the MBLJ25X125-30.
The AirTAC MALJ25X125-30 is a discontinued double-acting double-rod mini cylinder with a rear adjustable stroke stop. The 30mm adjuster creates a usable 95-125mm end-position window, letting you fine-tune reach without adding external stops.
The direct replacement is the MBLJ25X125-30, matching the 25mm bore, 125mm stroke, G1/8 port, and 30mm adjust code. Note that this original MALJ uses threaded covers and a fixed rubber bumper, while the MBLJ upgrades to a riveted rolling-packed body. This specific SKU lacks a magnet (-S) and cannot accept a position sensor.

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 MBLJ25X125-30 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 MBLJ25X125-30 matches these values.

| 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.
Adjust the end position to control the downward reach of a capping head, ensuring consistent torque on plastic beverage caps without over-compressing the container.
Fine-tune the 125mm return stroke to position a notching blade precisely on a woodworking line, accommodating varying 10-12mm fiberboard thicknesses without retooling.
Replace this MALJ25X125-30 directly with the MBLJ25X125-30, confirming the 25mm bore, 125mm stroke, 30mm adjust code, PT thread, and FA/LB mounting (no back cover or SDB). The rear adjuster sets travel limits but is a stop, not a lock; it will not hold a load without live air. At 125mm stroke, prevent rod bending by ensuring rigid guide alignment.
Upgrade checklist
Yes, the MALJ25X125-30 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the MBLJ25X125-30, which matches the 25mm bore, 125mm stroke, 30mm adjust code, G1/8 port, and force. The MBLJ upgrades the threaded covers to a riveted rolling-packed body.
The 30mm adjuster allows a usable stroke window of 95-125mm. It uses a fixed rubber bumper, not an adjustable cushion, and the adjuster is a travel stop, not a lock.
