This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MALJ series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement MBLJ32X250-75, 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 Airtac MALJ32 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ32X250-75 is a double-acting aluminum mini cylinder with a rear adjustable-stroke stopper: you can trim up to 75 mm, giving a usable end-position window from 175 to 250 mm. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the MBLJ32X250-75.
The AirTAC MALJ32X250-75 is a discontinued double-acting, double-rod mini cylinder with a 32mm bore and 250mm stroke. A 75mm rear adjuster creates a usable end-position window of 175-250mm. The direct replacement is the MBLJ32X250-75, which matches the bore, stroke, adjuster, G1/8 port, and FA/LB mounting.
This SKU lacks a magnet (-S), so it cannot accept a position sensor. The adjuster sets travel but does not hold load without live air. Upgrading to the MBLJ brings a riveted rolling-packed body and modern CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors, replacing the MALJ threaded covers and CS1-M/DS1-M switches. End impact relies on a fixed rubber bumper, not an adjustable cushion.

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 MBLJ32X250-75 carries the same ratings.
| 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 MBLJ32X250-75 matches these values.

Replacement: MALJ → MBLJ. No back-cover (CA/U/CM) and no SDB. Mounting: FA / LB.
Trim the rear travel up to 75mm to fine-tune the cutting depth on a PCB depaneling router, preventing the 12mm rod from crashing into the fixture support plate.
Adjust the end position to maintain exact fabric tension on a weaving loom, letting the fixed rubber bumper absorb the repetitive 250mm stroke impacts without air cushions.
To replace the MALJ32X250-75, order the exact direct replacement MBLJ32X250-75. Confirm the 32mm bore, 250mm stroke, 75mm adjust code, G1/8 port, PT thread, and FA/LB mounting. Since this SKU lacks a magnet, you lose position sensing; adding an -S on the MBLJ enables CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches. The rear adjuster is a travel stop, not a lock. At 250mm, watch rod-bending side loads.
Upgrade checklist
Yes, the MALJ32X250-75 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the MBLJ32X250-75, matching the 32mm bore, 250mm stroke, 75mm adjuster, G1/8 port, and FA/LB mounting. The MBLJ upgrades the threaded covers to a riveted rolling-packed body.
The 75mm rear adjuster lets you trim the end position, creating a usable stroke window from 175mm to 250mm. It acts as a travel stop and does not hold the load without live air.
