This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MALJ series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement MBLJ32X250-50, 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).
Airtac MALJ32 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ32X250-50
The AirTAC Airtac MALJ32 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ32X250-50 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 200 to 250 mm. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the MBLJ32X250-50.

About the Airtac MALJ32 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ32X250-50
The AirTAC MALJ32X250-50 is a discontinued 32mm bore, double-acting adjustable-stroke mini cylinder. It provides a usable stroke window of 200-250mm via a 50mm rear travel stop. The direct replacement is the MBLJ32X250-50, matching the bore, stroke, adjust code, and G1/8 port.
This SKU lacks a -S magnet, so it cannot accept a position sensor. The rear adjuster is a travel stop, not a lock; it will not hold a load without live air. The fixed rubber bumper softens end impacts but offers no adjustable cushion. Upgrading to the MBLJ changes the sensor family from CS1-M/DS1-M to CMSG/DMSG/EMSG if a magnet is added later, and swaps the threaded covers for a riveted rolling-packed body.

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 MBLJ32X250-50 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 MBLJ32X250-50 matches these values.

Replacing the Airtac MALJ32 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ32X250-50 with MBLJ32X250-50
To replace the MALJ32X250-50, order the MBLJ32X250-50. Confirm the 32mm bore, 250mm stroke, 50mm adjust code, G1/8 port, and PT thread. Mounting is FA or LB only; there is no back-cover or SDB option. Because this SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot take a sensor. The MBLJ replacement uses a riveted body instead of threaded covers.
The 50mm adjuster sets the end position but does not lock the load; use an external lock for holding. At 250mm stroke, minimize side loads to prevent rod bending.
Upgrade checklist
- ✓ Order the MBLJ32X250-50 (same bore/stroke/adjust)
- ✓ Same 200–250 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 MBLJ32X250-50 instead of this discontinued model.
