This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MALJ series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement MBLJ32X400-10, 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 MALJ32X400-10 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 390 to 400 mm. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the MBLJ32X400-10.
The AirTAC MALJ32X400-10 is a discontinued double-acting double-rod adjustable-stroke mini cylinder. It has a 32 mm bore, a 400 mm stroke, and a 10 mm rear adjuster, creating a usable end-position window of 390-400 mm.
The direct replacement is the MBLJ32X400-10, matching bore, stroke, and force. The MALJ uses threaded covers and a fixed rubber bumper, while the MBLJ upgrades to a riveted rolling-packed body. This SKU lacks the -S magnet, so it cannot accept a position sensor. The rear adjuster is a travel stop to fine-tune reach without external hardware; it is not a lock and will not hold a load without live air.

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 MBLJ32X400-10 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 MBLJ32X400-10 matches these values.

| 32 | Bore size in mm (20/25/32/40). |
| ×400 | Nominal stroke length in mm. |

| 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 10 mm rear stop on a packaging line to tuck minor flaps on varying box heights before sealing, relying on the fixed rubber bumper to absorb the impact.
Adjust the end position to feed cabinet doors into a wide belt sander, ensuring the 12 mm rod retracts smoothly without adding external physical stops.
To replace this MALJ32X400-10 with the MBLJ32X400-10, confirm the 32 mm bore, 400 mm stroke, 10 mm adjust code, G1/8 port, PT threads, and Basic/FA/LB mounting (no back cover or SDB). Because this SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot take a sensor; if you need switches, step up to an MBLJ32X400-10S and use CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors instead of the older CS1-M/DS1-M. The rear adjuster sets the end position but is a stop, not a lock.
At 400 mm stroke, use guide rails to prevent rod bending and side-load damage.
Upgrade checklist
Yes, the MALJ32X400-10 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the MBLJ32X400-10, matching the 32 mm bore, 400 mm stroke, 10 mm adjust code, G1/8 port, and mounting. The MBLJ upgrades the threaded covers to a riveted rolling-packed body.
The usable adjustable window is 390-400 mm via the 10 mm rear stopper. The adjuster is a travel stop, not a lock.
