This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MALJ series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement MBLJ32X80-100, 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 MALJ32X80-100
The AirTAC Airtac MALJ32 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ32X80-100 is a double-acting aluminum mini cylinder with a rear adjustable-stroke stopper: you can trim up to 100 mm, giving a usable end-position window from -20 to 80 mm. This model is discontinued — the direct replacement is the MBLJ32X80-100.

About the Airtac MALJ32 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ32X80-100
The AirTAC MALJ32X80-100 is a discontinued double-acting mini cylinder with a rear adjustable stop. It provides a usable stroke window of 0-80 mm, letting you dial in the exact reach without external spacers. The direct replacement is the MBLJ32X80-100, matching the bore, stroke, adjuster, and G1/8 port.
This SKU lacks a magnet (-S), so it cannot accept a position sensor. The rear adjuster acts as a travel stop, not a lock; it sets the end position but will not hold a load without live air. Impact is softened by a fixed rubber bumper. Note the upgrade path: the legacy MALJ uses threaded covers and CS1-M/DS1-M sensors, while the MBLJ features a riveted rolling-packed body and CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors.
Airtac MALJ32 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ32X80-100 Technical Specifications

| Adjustable window | -20 – 80 mm |
| Acting type | Double acting, adjustable stroke |
| Port size | G1/8 |
| Rod thread | M10×1.25 |
| Fluid | Air (filtered by 40µm element) |
|---|---|
| Operating pressure | 0.1 – 1.0 MPa |
| Proof pressure | 1.5 MPa |
| Temperature | -20 to +70 °C |
| Speed range | 30 – 800 mm/s |
| Cushion | Fixed rubber bumper |
| 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 MBLJ32X80-100 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 MBLJ32X80-100 matches these values.

Where the Airtac MALJ32 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ32X80-100 Is Used
Variable Depth Forming Press
Adjusts the rear stopper to tune the crimp depth of sheet metal enclosures on the fly, relying on the fixed rubber bumper to absorb the 563 N impact force at 0.7 MPa.
Textile Loom Tensioner
Sets a precise 45 mm thread take-up within the 0-80 mm window on a weaving loom, using the 346 N pull force to maintain consistent fabric tension across the beam.
Replacing the Airtac MALJ32 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ32X80-100 with MBLJ32X80-100
To replace this MALJ32X80-100, order the MBLJ32X80-100. Confirm the 32 mm bore, 80 mm stroke, 100 mm adjust code, PT G1/8 port, and FA or LB mounting (there is no back cover or SDB option). Because this specific SKU has no -S magnet, it cannot support a sensor; if you need position detection on the new MBLJ, add the -S code to use CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches. Remember the adjuster is a stop, not a lock.
At 80 mm stroke, side load is minimal, but ensure the M10x1.25 rod-end thread is aligned to prevent rod bending.
Upgrade checklist
- ✓ Order the MBLJ32X80-100 (same bore/stroke/adjust)
- ✓ Same -20–80 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 MBLJ32X80-100 instead of this discontinued model.
Airtac MALJ32 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ32X80-100 FAQ
Yes, the MALJ32X80-100 is discontinued. The direct replacement is the MBLJ32X80-100, which matches the 32 mm bore, 80 mm stroke, 100 mm adjuster, and G1/8 port. The MBLJ upgrades the construction with a riveted rolling-packed body instead of threaded covers.
The 100 mm adjust code allows you to trim the 80 mm stroke, creating a usable window from 0 to 80 mm. The adjuster is a travel stop, not a lock, and this no-S SKU cannot take a position sensor.
