This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MALJ series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement MBLJ25X25-10SLB, 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 MALJ25X25-10SLB 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 15 to 25 mm. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the MBLJ25X25-10SLB.
The AirTAC MALJ25X25-10SLB is a discontinued double-acting mini cylinder with a 25mm bore, 25mm stroke, and a 10mm rear adjuster. This yields a usable end-position window of 15-25mm. The direct replacement is the MBLJ25X25-10SLB, matching the bore, stroke, adjust code, LB foot mount, and G1/8 port.
This -S magnet SKU uses older CS1-M/DS1-M switches, while the MBLJ upgrade moves to CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. The MALJ features threaded covers, whereas the MBLJ uses a riveted rolling-packed body. The rear adjuster acts as a travel stop to fine-tune reach without external stops, but it is not a lock and will not hold a load without live air. End impact is softened by a fixed rubber bumper; there is no adjustable air cushion.

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 MBLJ25X25-10SLB 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 MBLJ25X25-10SLB matches these values.

|---|---|
| 25 | Bore size in mm (20/25/32/40). |
| ×25 | 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 downward end position when pressing delicate header pins into molded plastic housings, preventing over-travel damage on the 25mm stroke.
Adjust the rear stop to clamp varying aluminum tube lengths securely in a cutoff saw jig, relying on the LB foot mount for stable base fixing.
To replace the MALJ25X25-10SLB, install the direct replacement MBLJ25X25-10SLB. Confirm the 25mm bore, 25mm stroke, 10mm adjust code, LB foot mount, PT G1/8 port, and M10x1.25 rod thread. Remember the adjuster is a stop, not a lock. The -S magnet requires a sensor family change from CS1-M/DS1-M to CMSG/DMSG/EMSG. No back cover or SDB is used.
Upgrade checklist
Yes, the MALJ25X25-10SLB is discontinued. The direct replacement is the MBLJ25X25-10SLB, which matches the 25mm bore, 25mm stroke, 10mm adjuster, LB mount, and G1/8 port. You will need to upgrade your sensors from CS1-M/DS1-M to CMSG/DMSG/EMSG.
The 10mm adjuster lets you trim the 25mm stroke, giving a usable window of 15-25mm. The adjuster is a travel stop, not a lock.
