This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MALJ series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement MBLJ32X25-30, 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).

About the Airtac MALJ32 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ32X25-30
The AirTAC MALJ32X25-30 is a discontinued double-acting, double-rod mini cylinder with a rear adjustable stroke stopper. It has a 32 mm bore, a 25 mm base stroke, and a 30 mm adjuster, providing a usable end-position window of 0-25 mm. The direct replacement is the MBLJ32X25-30, matching the bore, stroke, force, and port.
This SKU lacks a magnet (-S) and 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. The fixed rubber bumper softens end impact, while the threaded covers and hard-chrome carbon-steel rod provide durable service. The MBLJ upgrade switches to a riveted rolling-packed body and CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors.

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 MBLJ32X25-30 carries the same ratings.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø32mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |

| 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 MBLJ32X25-30 matches these values.

Where the Airtac MALJ32 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ32X25-30 Is Used
Pin Insertion Stop
Set a precise depth stop for inserting connector pins into plastic housings, trimming up to 30 mm to prevent bottoming out the 12 mm rod.
Film Cutter Adjustment
Fine-tune the blade contact position on a packaging film cutter, adjusting the end point without adding external stops to the frame.
Replacing the Airtac MALJ32 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ32X25-30 with MBLJ32X25-30
To replace the MALJ32X25-30, order the direct replacement MBLJ32X25-30. Confirm the 32 mm bore, 25 mm stroke, 30 mm adjust code, G1/8 port, and PT thread. Mounting is FA or LB only (no back cover or SDB). Because this SKU has no -S magnet, it cannot take a sensor; if you need position detection, the MBLJ32X25-30S uses CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches.
Remember the adjuster is a stop, not a lock, for holding loads.
Upgrade checklist
- ✓ Order the MBLJ32X25-30 (same bore/stroke/adjust)
- ✓ Same -5–25 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 MBLJ32X25-30 instead of this discontinued model.
