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

About the Airtac MALJ32 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ32X100-30-S
The AirTAC MALJ32X100-30-S is a discontinued double-acting double-rod mini cylinder with a 32 mm bore and a 100 mm stroke. It is replaced directly by the MBLJ32X100-30-S. The -30 adjust code lets you trim the rear end position by up to 30 mm, creating a usable stroke window of 70-100 mm.
The rear adjuster functions strictly as a travel stop to fine-tune depth without external hardware; it will not hold a load without live air. This -S variant includes a magnet for position sensing via CS1-M or DS1-M switches. When upgrading to the MBLJ32X100-30-S, the sensor family changes to CMSG/DMSG/EMSG, and the threaded covers are replaced by a riveted rolling-packed body. Impact is absorbed by a fixed rubber bumper, not an adjustable air cushion.
Airtac MALJ32 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ32X100-30-S Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac MALJ32 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ32X100-30-S |
|---|---|
| Series | MALJ adjustable-stroke mini cylinder (discontinued) |
| Replacement | MBLJ32X100-30-S |
| Bore size | Ø32 mm |
| Stroke | 100 mm |
| 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 |
| Proof pressure | 1.5 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-S 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-S matches these values.

Where the Airtac MALJ32 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ32X100-30-S Is Used
PCB Drill Depth Setter
Dials the exact 70-100 mm reach for a multi-spindle PCB drilling head.
Aluminum Extrusion Press
Adjusts the end stop on an aluminum profile clamping fixture. The 30 mm rear trim allows operators to tune the 100 mm stroke window for varying profile widths.
Carton Flap Folder
Sets the folding arm position on a packaging line. The fixed rubber bumper absorbs the repeated end-of-stroke impact during high-speed carton folding tasks.
Replacing the Airtac MALJ32 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ32X100-30-S with MBLJ32X100-30-S
To replace this MALJ32X100-30-S, order the exact direct replacement MBLJ32X100-30-S. Confirm the 32 mm bore, 100 mm stroke, 30 mm adjust code, G1/8 port, PT thread, and FA/LB mounting (no back cover or SDB). Remember the -S magnet requires changing your CS1-M/DS1-M switches to CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors on the new cylinder. The adjuster sets the end position but is not a lock.
Since this unit has a 100 mm stroke, ensure proper alignment to prevent rod-bending side loads on long extensions.
Upgrade checklist
- ✓ Order the MBLJ32X100-30-S (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-S instead of this discontinued model.
Airtac MALJ32 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ32X100-30-S FAQ
Yes, the MALJ32X100-30-S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the MBLJ32X100-30-S, which matches the 32 mm bore, 100 mm stroke, 30 mm adjust code, and G1/8 port. You will need to switch your CS1-M/DS1-M sensors to CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches for the new magnet.
The usable stroke window is 70-100 mm, set by trimming the rear stopper up to 30 mm. The adjuster is a travel stop, not a lock.
