This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MALJ series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement MBLJ25X60-20, 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).

About the Airtac MALJ25 Adjustable Mini Air Cylinder MALJ25X60-20
The AirTAC MALJ25X60-20 is a discontinued double-acting mini cylinder with a 25 mm bore, 60 mm stroke, and a 20 mm rear adjuster. This yields a usable end-position window of 40-60 mm. The direct replacement is the MBLJ25X60-20, matching the bore, stroke, adjust code, and G1/8 port.
This SKU lacks the -S magnet, so it cannot accept a position sensor. The adjuster is a travel stop, not a lock; it cannot hold a load without live air. The original MALJ uses threaded covers and a fixed rubber bumper, while the MBLJ upgrade features a riveted rolling-packed body. Both lack a back cover, restricting mounting to FA or LB.

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 MBLJ25X60-20 carries the same ratings.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø25mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |

| 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 MBLJ25X60-20 matches these values.

Where the Airtac MALJ25 Adjustable Mini Air Cylinder MALJ25X60-20 Is Used
Dispenser Nozzle Height
Fine-tune the down stroke on an adhesive dispensing nozzle without adding external spacers, trimming up to 20 mm at the rear to prevent crushing delicate housings.
Connector Insertion Jig
Adjust the end position for a ribbon-cable connector insertion jig, relying on the fixed rubber bumper to soften the impact at the end of the 60 mm stroke.
Replacing the Airtac MALJ25 Adjustable Mini Air Cylinder MALJ25X60-20 with MBLJ25X60-20
To replace this MALJ25X60-20, order the exact direct replacement MBLJ25X60-20. Confirm the 25 mm bore, 60 mm stroke, 20 mm adjust code, G1/8 port, and M10x1.25 rod thread. Mounting stays FA or LB only, as there is no back cover or SDB option. Since this SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot take a sensor; if you need position detection, the MBLJ-S replacement uses CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches instead of the older CS1-M/DS1-M. Remember the adjuster is a stop, not a lock.
Upgrade checklist
- ✓ Order the MBLJ25X60-20 (same bore/stroke/adjust)
- ✓ Same 40–60 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 MBLJ25X60-20 instead of this discontinued model.
