This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MALJ series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement MBLJ32X60-50, 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 MALJ32X60-50

About the Airtac MALJ32 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ32X60-50
The AirTAC MALJ32X60-50 is a discontinued double-acting mini cylinder with a 50mm rear travel stopper, giving a usable extension window of 10-60mm. The direct replacement is the MBLJ32X60-50, matching the 32mm bore, 60mm stroke, G1/8 port, and mounting.
This SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot take a position sensor. The rear adjuster is a travel stop, not a lock; it sets the end position but will not hold a load without live air. Upgrading to the MBLJ replaces the old threaded covers with a riveted rolling-packed body.

| Adjustable window | 10 – 60 mm |
| Acting type | Double acting, adjustable stroke |
| Port size | G1/8 |
| Rod thread | M10×1.25 |
| Fluid | Air (filtered by 40µm element) |

| 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 MBLJ32X60-50 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 MBLJ32X60-50 matches these values.

Where the Airtac MALJ32 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ32X60-50 Is Used
PCB Router Depth Stop
Dial the 10-60mm window to set exact Z-axis plunge depth on a PCB depaneling router, using the 402N @0.5MPa force to hold the cutting head without crashing.
Aluminum Extrusion Notcher
Fine-tune the blade approach on an aluminum profile notching station, trimming up to 50mm off the 60mm stroke to accommodate varying profile widths.
Plastic Film Splicer
Adjust the nipper roll contact point on a packaging film splicing machine, relying on the fixed rubber bumper to soften the end impact during rapid cycles.
Replacing the Airtac MALJ32 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ32X60-50 with MBLJ32X60-50
To replace this MALJ32X60-50, order the MBLJ32X60-50. Confirm the 32mm bore, 60mm stroke, 50mm adjust code, PT G1/8 port, and FA/LB mounting. Because this SKU has no -S magnet, you lose any sensor capability; the MBLJ upgrade would use CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches if you add one. Remember the rear stopper does not hold load without air.
Upgrade checklist
- ✓ Order the MBLJ32X60-50 (same bore/stroke/adjust)
- ✓ Same 10–60 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 MBLJ32X60-50 instead of this discontinued model.
