This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MALJ series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement MBLJ32X350-50S, 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 MALJ32 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ32X350-50-S 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 300 to 350 mm. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the MBLJ32X350-50-S.
The AirTAC MALJ32X350-50-S is a discontinued double-acting, double-rod adjustable-stroke mini cylinder. It provides a usable stroke window of 300-350 mm via a 50 mm rear travel stop. The direct replacement is the MBLJ32X350-50-S, matching the 32 mm bore, stroke, and G1/8 port.
This bore 32 unit uses a fixed rubber bumper, not an adjustable air cushion. The rear adjuster sets the end position but does not hold the load without live air. Upgrade details include the switch from threaded covers to a riveted rolling-packed body, and the -S magnet shifts from the older CS1-M/DS1-M switches to the modern CMSG/DMSG/EMSG family.

| 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 MBLJ32X350-50-S 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 MBLJ32X350-50-S matches these values.
| MALJ | Adjustable-stroke aluminum mini cylinder, double acting (discontinued). |
|---|---|
| 32 | Bore size in mm (20/25/32/40). |
| ×350 | Nominal stroke length in mm. |
| -50 | Adjustable amount: trim the end to a 300–350 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.
Index pallets along a 350 mm conveyor lane; trim 50 mm at the rear to synchronize the end position with a fixed mechanical latch.
Extend a 32 mm rod to preload a film roll, adjusting the 50 mm window to maintain exact web tension without repositioning the cylinder bracket.
To replace the MALJ32X350-50-S, specify the MBLJ32X350-50-S to retain the 32 mm bore, 350 mm stroke, 50 mm adjust code, G1/8 port, PT thread, and FA/LB mounting. The MBLJ uses a riveted body instead of threaded covers, and requires CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors instead of the old CS1-M/DS1-M. Remember the adjuster is a travel stop, not a lock.
At 350 mm stroke, side-load and rod-bending risks are high; ensure rigid guiding to prevent binding.
Upgrade checklist
Yes, the MALJ32X350-50-S is discontinued. The direct replacement is the MBLJ32X350-50-S, matching the 32 mm bore, 350 mm stroke, 50 mm adjust code, and G1/8 port. The MBLJ upgrades the body to a riveted rolling-packed design and uses CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors instead of the older CS1-M/DS1-M.
The -50 adjust code lets you trim up to 50 mm at the rear, creating a usable stroke window from 300 to 350 mm. The adjuster is a travel stop, not a lock, and does not hold the load without live air.
