This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MALJ series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement MBLJ32X100-30, 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).
Airtac MALJ32 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ32X100-30
The AirTAC Airtac MALJ32 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ32X100-30 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 70 to 100 mm. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the MBLJ32X100-30.

About the Airtac MALJ32 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ32X100-30
The AirTAC MALJ32X100-30 is a discontinued double-acting double-rod mini cylinder with a 32 mm bore and 100 mm stroke. The direct replacement is the MBLJ32X100-30, matching the force, port, and mounting. This SKU features a rear screw stopper that trims up to 30 mm of travel, creating a usable 70-100 mm end-position window without external stops.
This model uses a fixed rubber bumper, meaning the adjustable stroke sets the end position but does not provide an air cushion. The adjuster acts as a travel stop, not a lock, so it cannot hold a load without live air pressure. Because this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot accept a position sensor. Upgrading to the MBLJ brings a riveted rolling-packed body and CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors, replacing the threaded covers and older CS1-M/DS1-M switches of the MALJ.

| Adjustable window | 70 – 100 mm |
| Acting type | Double acting, adjustable stroke |
| Port size | G1/8 |
| Rod thread | M10×1.25 |
| Fluid | Air (filtered by 40µm element) |
|---|---|
| Operating pressure | 0.1 – 1.0 MPa |

| Temperature | -20 to +70 °C |
| Speed range | 30 – 800 mm/s |
| Cushion | Fixed rubber bumper |
| Max standard stroke | Up to 500 mm |
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 MBLJ32X100-30 carries the same ratings.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø32mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 346 N | 346 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 484 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 70 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 MBLJ32X100-30 matches these values.

Where the Airtac MALJ32 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ32X100-30 Is Used
Aluminum Extrusion Notcher
Fine-tune the cutting reach on an extrusion notching fixture without adding external shims, letting the fixed rubber bumper absorb the 563 N impact at 0.7 MPa.
Packaging Carton Flap Folder
Adjust the end position by up to 30 mm to accommodate varying carton depths on a packaging line, relying on the 346 N pull force to retract the folding arm.
Replacing the Airtac MALJ32 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ32X100-30 with MBLJ32X100-30
To replace the MALJ32X100-30, order the MBLJ32X100-30. Confirm the 32 mm bore, 100 mm stroke, 30 mm adjust code, G1/8 port, and PT thread. Mounting is FA or LB only, with no back cover or SDB option. Since this SKU has no -S magnet, it cannot take a sensor; if sensing is needed, switch to an MBLJ-S model using CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches. Remember the rear adjuster is a stop, not a lock.
The 32 mm bore provides 563 N at 0.7 MPa and a maximum 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
Upgrade checklist
- ✓ Order the MBLJ32X100-30 (same bore/stroke/adjust)
- ✓ Same 70–100 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 MBLJ32X100-30 instead of this discontinued model.
Airtac MALJ32 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ32X100-30 FAQ
Yes, the MALJ32X100-30 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the MBLJ32X100-30, which matches the 32 mm bore, 100 mm stroke, 30 mm adjust code, and G1/8 port. The MBLJ upgrades the design with a riveted rolling-packed body instead of threaded covers.
The -30 adjuster is a rear travel stop that lets you shorten the stroke by up to 30 mm, creating a usable 70-100 mm window. It is a stop, not a lock, and cannot hold a load without air.
