This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MALJ series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement MBLJ25X75-50, 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 MALJ25X75-50 is a double-acting aluminum mini cylinder with a rear adjustable-stroke stopper: you can trim up to 50 mm, giving a usable end-position window from 25 to 75 mm. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the MBLJ25X75-50.
The AirTAC MALJ25X75-50 is a discontinued double-acting double-rod mini cylinder with a 50mm rear adjustable stroke stopper. It yields a usable end-position window of 25-75mm. The direct replacement is the MBLJ25X75-50, matching the G1/8 port, M10x1.25 rod thread, and 50kgf max force.
This unit has no magnet and cannot accept a position sensor. The rear adjuster is a travel stop, not a lock, so it will not hold a load without live air. The fixed rubber bumper softens end impact. Upgrading to the MBLJ25X75-50 moves you from threaded covers to a riveted rolling-packed body, and if you later need a sensor, the MBLJ uses CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches instead of the older CS1-M/DS1-M family.

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 MBLJ25X75-50 carries the same ratings.

| 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 MBLJ25X75-50 matches these values.

|---|---|
| 25 | Bore size in mm (20/25/32/40). |
| ×75 | Nominal stroke length in mm. |
| -50 | Adjustable amount: trim the end to a 25–75 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 tuck reach on a case erector by trimming up to 50mm at the rear, matching varying box heights on the fly without adding external physical stops to the frame.
Adjust the end position to maintain tension on a copper wire straightening line, letting the 206N pull figure draw the strand tight while avoiding yield stress on the conductor.
To replace this MALJ25X75-50, order the exact direct replacement MBLJ25X75-50. Confirm your 25mm bore, 75mm stroke, 50mm adjust code, G1/8 PT port, and FA/LB mounting (there is no back cover or SDB option). Remember the adjuster is a stop, not a lock. Since this SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot hold a sensor; the MBLJ upgrade enables the CMSG/DMSG/EMSG family if you add one.
Upgrade checklist
Yes, the MALJ25X75-50 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the MBLJ25X75-50, which matches the 25mm bore, 75mm stroke, 50mm adjust code, G1/8 port, and FA/LB mounting. The MBLJ upgrades the body from threaded covers to a riveted rolling-packed design.
The 50mm adjust code creates a usable stroke window from 25mm to 75mm. The rear adjuster is a travel stop only, not a lock, and this no-magnet SKU cannot accept a position sensor.
