This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MALJ series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement MBLJ32X35-30, 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).

The AirTAC Airtac MALJ32 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ32X35-30 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 5 to 35 mm. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the MBLJ32X35-30.
The AirTAC MALJ32X35-30 is a discontinued 32mm bore, double-acting double-rod mini cylinder with a 35mm stroke and a 30mm rear adjustable stop. This gives a usable end-position window of 5-35mm. The direct replacement is the MBLJ32X35-30, matching bore, stroke, force, G1/8 port and mounting.
The rear adjuster is a travel stop, not a lock; it sets the end position but cannot hold a load without live air. This SKU has no magnet (-S) and cannot take a position sensor. The fixed rubber bumper softens end impact but is not an adjustable cushion. Upgrading to the MBLJ brings a riveted rolling-packed body replacing the MALJ threaded covers.

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 MBLJ32X35-30 carries the same ratings.
| 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 MBLJ32X35-30 matches these values.
| MALJ | Adjustable-stroke aluminum mini cylinder, double acting (discontinued). |
|---|---|
| 32 | Bore size in mm (20/25/32/40). |
| ×35 | Nominal stroke length in mm. |
| -30 | Adjustable amount: trim the end to a 5–35 mm window. |
| 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.
Fine-tune the insertion end position for delicate ribbon-cable connectors, relying on the fixed rubber bumper to soften the final impact.
Adjust the rear stop to dial tamp depth for varying product heights on a packaging line, ensuring the 346N pull force retracts the pad cleanly.
Replace the MALJ32X35-30 with the direct replacement MBLJ32X35-30. Confirm the 32mm bore, 35mm stroke, 30mm adjust code, G1/8 port, PT thread, and FA/LB mounting (no back cover or SDB). Since this is a no-S SKU, it cannot take a sensor; the MBLJ upgrade uses CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches if needed. The adjuster is a stop, not a lock.
Upgrade checklist
Yes, the MALJ32X35-30 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the MBLJ32X35-30, which matches the 32mm bore, 35mm stroke, 30mm adjust code, G1/8 port, and force ratings.
The 30mm adjust code creates a usable stroke window of 5-35mm. The adjuster is a travel stop, not a lock, and cannot hold a load without live air.
