This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MALJ series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement MBLJ25X80-50, 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 MALJ25X80-50 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 30 to 80 mm. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the MBLJ25X80-50.
The AirTAC MALJ25X80-50 is a discontinued double-acting mini cylinder with a 25mm bore and an 80mm stroke. It lets you trim the rear travel by up to 50mm, creating a usable end-position window from 30mm to 80mm without bolting on external stops. The direct replacement is the MBLJ25X80-50, matching the bore, stroke, 50mm adjuster, and G1/8 port.
This SKU lacks the -S magnet, so it cannot accept a position sensor. The rear adjuster is a travel stop, not a lock; it sets the end position but will not hold a load without live air. End impact is softened by a fixed rubber bumper, as there is no adjustable air cushion. The original MALJ uses threaded covers and a CS1-M/DS1-M sensor track, while the MBLJ upgrade features a riveted rolling-packed body and CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches.

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 MBLJ25X80-50 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 MBLJ25X80-50 matches these values.

Replacement: MALJ → MBLJ. No back-cover (CA/U/CM) and no SDB. Mounting: FA / LB.
Fine-tune the downward travel on a rotary bottle capping machine to apply exact torque without crushing plastic caps, adjusting the stroke on the fly without swapping hardware.
Regulate the pressing stroke on an industrial leather embossing press to vary imprint depth, utilizing the 206N pull force to retract the tooling cleanly.
To replace the MALJ25X80-50, order the exact direct replacement MBLJ25X80-50, confirming the 25mm bore, 80mm stroke, 50mm adjust code, PT G1/8 port, and FA/LB mounting (no back cover or SDB). Remember the adjuster is a stop, not a lock. Since this is a no-S SKU, it cannot take a sensor, but upgrading to the MBLJ with an -S code enables CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches.
Upgrade checklist
Yes, the MALJ25X80-50 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the MBLJ25X80-50, which matches the 25mm bore, 80mm stroke, 50mm adjust code, and G1/8 port. The MBLJ upgrades the body to a riveted rolling-packed design and uses CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors if you specify the -S magnet code.
The -50 adjust code allows you to trim up to 50mm at the rear, creating a usable stroke window from 30mm to 80mm. The adjuster acts as a travel stop, not a load lock.
