This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MALJ series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement MBLJ32X30-10S, 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 MALJ32X30-10S
The AirTAC MALJ32 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ32X30-10S is a double-acting aluminum mini cylinder with a rear adjustable-stroke stopper: you can trim up to 10 mm, giving a usable end-position window from 20 to 30 mm. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the MBLJ32X30-10S.

About the Airtac MALJ32 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ32X30-10S
The AirTAC MALJ32X30-10S is a discontinued double-acting mini cylinder with a rear adjustable stroke. It offers a usable travel window of 20-30 mm by trimming up to 10 mm at the rear screw. The direct replacement is the MBLJ32X30-10S, matching the bore, stroke, adjust code, and G1/8 port.
This -S SKU includes a magnet for position sensing, using the legacy CS1-M or DS1-M switches. The current MBLJ upgrade uses CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors and swaps the original threaded covers for a riveted rolling-packed body. The rear adjuster functions strictly as a travel stop to fine-tune the end position without external hardware; it does not hold the load without live air. End impact is softened by a fixed rubber bumper, as there is no adjustable air cushion.
Airtac MALJ32 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ32X30-10S Technical Specifications
| Model | Airtac MALJ32 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ32X30-10S |
|---|---|
| Series | MALJ adjustable-stroke mini cylinder (discontinued) |
| Replacement | MBLJ32X30-10S |
| Bore size | Ø32 mm |
| Stroke | 30 mm |
| Adjustable window | 20 – 30 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 MBLJ32X30-10S 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 MBLJ32X30-10S matches these values.

| S | Optional magnet for a CS1-M / DS1-M sensor (MBLJ uses CMSG/DMSG/EMSG). |
Replacement: MALJ → MBLJ. No back-cover (CA/U/CM) and no SDB. Mounting: FA / LB.
Where the Airtac MALJ32 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ32X30-10S Is Used
PCB Router Depth Stop
Dial in the exact 20-30 mm descent on a printed circuit board depaneling router. The 10 mm rear trim prevents the 402 N stroke from over-traveling and damaging the fixture base.
Stator Winding Tensioner
Micro-adjust the copper wire guide arm on an electric motor stator winding machine. The rear stopper lets operators set the precise end position without machining new spacer blocks.
Bearing Press Fit
Press small bearings into aluminum housings. The fixed rubber bumper absorbs the 563 N impact at 0.7 MPa, while the stopper ensures the press bottoms out at the exact 28 mm depth.
Replacing the Airtac MALJ32 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ32X30-10S with MBLJ32X30-10S
To replace this MALJ32X30-10S with the MBLJ32X30-10S, confirm the 32 mm bore, 30 mm stroke, 10 mm adjust code, PT G1/8 port, and M10x1.25 rod-end thread. Mounting is limited to Basic, FA, or LB; there is no back-cover or SDB option. Because your SKU has the -S magnet, you must upgrade your sensors from the old CS1-M/DS1-M to the MBLJ's CMSG/DMSG/EMSG family. Remember the adjuster is a travel stop, not a lock, so add an external lock for held loads.
Upgrade checklist
- ✓ Order the MBLJ32X30-10S (same bore/stroke/adjust)
- ✓ Same 20–30 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 MBLJ32X30-10S instead of this discontinued model.
Airtac MALJ32 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ32X30-10S FAQ
Yes, the MALJ32X30-10S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the MBLJ32X30-10S, which matches the 32 mm bore, 30 mm stroke, 10 mm adjust code, and G1/8 port. You will need to upgrade your position sensors from the old CS1-M/DS1-M switches to the newer CMSG/DMSG/EMSG family.
At 0.7 MPa, the push force is 563 N, with a maximum capacity of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The 10 mm adjust code creates a usable stroke window of 20-30 mm. Note that the rear adjuster is a travel stop, not a lock, and will not hold a load without live air pressure.
