This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MALJ series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement MBLJ32X450-10, 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).
Airtac MALJ32 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ32X450-10
The AirTAC Airtac MALJ32 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ32X450-10 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 440 to 450 mm. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the MBLJ32X450-10.

About the Airtac MALJ32 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ32X450-10
The AirTAC MALJ32X450-10 is a discontinued 32mm bore, double-acting double-rod cylinder with a 450mm stroke and a 10mm rear travel stop. This gives a usable end-position window of 440-450mm. The direct replacement is the MBLJ32X450-10, matching the bore, stroke, adjuster, and G1/8 port.
This SKU lacks a -S magnet, so it cannot accept a position sensor. The rear adjuster sets the end position but does not hold the load without live air. It uses a fixed rubber bumper, not an adjustable air cushion. The original MALJ features threaded covers and older CS1-M/DS1-M switches, while the MBLJ upgrade uses a riveted rolling-packed body and CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. On long 450mm strokes, side loads cause rod bending, so use a guide to prevent seal wear.

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 MBLJ32X450-10 carries the same ratings.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø32mm)
| 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 MBLJ32X450-10 matches these values.

Where the Airtac MALJ32 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ32X450-10 Is Used
Carton Flap Folder
Fine-tune the 10mm end position on packaging lines to perfectly fold varying cardboard thicknesses, preventing crush damage.
Long-Stroke Pallet Pusher
Push light pallets along a 450mm transfer section; the fixed rubber bumper absorbs the end impact while a guide handles side-load.
Replacing the Airtac MALJ32 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ32X450-10 with MBLJ32X450-10
To replace the MALJ32X450-10, order the MBLJ32X450-10. It is a direct match for the 32mm bore, 450mm stroke, 10mm adjust code, G1/8 port, and M10x1.25 rod thread. Mounting is FA or LB only; there is no back cover or SDB option. Because this SKU lacks a magnet, it cannot take a sensor, but the MBLJ upgrade supports CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches. The adjuster is a travel stop, not a lock; add an external lock to hold loads. At 450mm, prevent rod bending with a guide.
Upgrade checklist
- ✓ Order the MBLJ32X450-10 (same bore/stroke/adjust)
- ✓ Same 440–450 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 MBLJ32X450-10 instead of this discontinued model.
Airtac MALJ32 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ32X450-10 FAQ
Yes, the MALJ32X450-10 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the MBLJ32X450-10, matching the 32mm bore, 450mm stroke, 10mm adjuster, and G1/8 port. The MBLJ upgrades to a riveted rolling-packed body and CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors.
The 10mm adjuster is a travel stop that trims the usable window to 440-450mm; it does not lock the load without air.
