This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MALJ series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement MBLJ32X80-40, 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 MALJ32X80-40

About the Airtac MALJ32 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ32X80-40
The AirTAC MALJ32X80-40 is a discontinued 32mm bore, double-acting adjustable-stroke mini cylinder. It provides a usable end-position window of 40-80mm by trimming up to 40mm at the rear screw. The direct replacement is the MBLJ32X80-40, which matches the bore, stroke, adjust code, G1/8 port, and mounting footprint.
This SKU lacks the -S magnet option, so it cannot accept a position sensor; upgrading to the MBLJ requires CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches if sensing is needed. The MALJ uses threaded covers and a fixed rubber bumper, while the MBLJ features a riveted rolling-packed body. The rear adjuster is a travel stop that sets the end position; it does not hold 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 MBLJ32X80-40 carries the same ratings.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø32mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |

| 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 MBLJ32X80-40 matches these values.

Where the Airtac MALJ32 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ32X80-40 Is Used
Bottle Capper Height Set
Fine-tune the downward reach of a capping head on a rotary filler without adding spacer plates, trimming 0-40mm off the 80mm stroke to match varying cap heights.
Leather Press Creasing
Adjust the end position to control the fold depth on a leather creasing jig, relying on the fixed rubber bumper to soften the impact at the end of travel.
Replacing the Airtac MALJ32 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ32X80-40 with MBLJ32X80-40
To replace the MALJ32X80-40, order the MBLJ32X80-40. Confirm the 32mm bore, 80mm stroke, 40mm adjust code, G1/8 port, and M10x1.25 rod-end thread. Mounting is FA or LB only; there is no back-cover or SDB option. Since this is a no-S SKU, it cannot take a sensor. The adjuster is a stop, not a lock; use an external lock for held loads.
Upgrade checklist
- ✓ Order the MBLJ32X80-40 (same bore/stroke/adjust)
- ✓ Same 40–80 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 MBLJ32X80-40 instead of this discontinued model.
