This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is MBLJ40X200-75 — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the MBLJ40X200-75 in place of this model. The MBLJ replacement upgrades to a riveted rolling-packed body and CMSG / DMSG / EMSG sensors (the MAL used CS1-M / DS1-M).
Airtac MALJ40 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ40X200-75
The AirTAC Airtac MALJ40 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ40X200-75 is a double-acting aluminum mini cylinder with a rear adjustable-stroke stopper: you can trim up to 75 mm, giving a usable end-position window from 125 to 200 mm. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the MBLJ40X200-75.

About the Airtac MALJ40 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ40X200-75
The AirTAC MALJ40X200-75 is a discontinued double-acting single-rod mini cylinder with a 40mm bore and a 200mm stroke. It is discontinued and the exact drop-in replacement is the MBLJ40X200-75, which matches the bore, stroke, 628N push force at 0.5MPa, and G1/4 port. This SKU features a 75mm rear adjuster, creating a usable stroke window of 125-200mm so you can dial in the exact end position without adding external stops.
This model uses a fixed rubber bumper, meaning the adjustable stroke sets the travel endpoint but does not provide an adjustable air cushion. The rear adjuster is a travel stop, not a lock; it cannot hold a load without live air pressure. This SKU lacks a magnet (-S) and therefore cannot accept a position sensor. The original MALJ uses threaded covers and PT porting, while the MBLJ upgrade features a riveted rolling-packed body for greater structural integrity.

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 MBLJ40X200-75 carries the same ratings.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø40mm)

Where the Airtac MALJ40 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ40X200-75 Is Used
Stamping Press Feeders
Dialing the 125-200mm stroke window lets a 40mm bore cylinder push a metal strip into a stamping press with 628N of force at 0.5MPa, ensuring exact material alignment without repositioning hard stops.
PCB Conveyor Diverter
The 75mm rear adjuster fine-tunes the pusher end point on a conveyor line, using the 528N pull force to retract a deflector gate precisely without slamming the rubber bumper at full travel.
Woodworking Edge Bander
Adjusts the reach of a pressure roller arm on an edge banding machine, allowing operators to trim the 200mm stroke down to 125mm to accommodate narrower cabinet panels without swapping hardware.
Replacing the Airtac MALJ40 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ40X200-75 with MBLJ40X200-75
To replace the MALJ40X200-75, install the drop-in MBLJ40X200-75. Confirm the 40mm bore, 200mm stroke, 75mm adjust code, G1/4 PT port, and M12x1.25 rod-end thread are retained. Mounting remains Basic, FA, or LB only (no back cover or SDB). Because this SKU lacks a magnet, there is no sensor to migrate; if you need a sensor on the new unit, you must specify an MBLJ with an -S magnet, which uses CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches instead of the older CS1-M/DS1-M. Remember the adjuster is a stop, not a lock, so external holding is needed for dead-load clamping. If sizing force, the next size down is the 32mm bore (402N push at 0.5MPa) and the next size up is the 40mm bore at 1.0MPa (128kgf max) if you need maximum thrust from this same body.
Upgrade checklist
- ✓ Order the MBLJ40X200-75 (same bore/stroke/adjust)
- ✓ Same 125–200 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 MBLJ40X200-75 instead of this discontinued model.
Airtac MALJ40 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ40X200-75 FAQ
Yes, the MALJ40X200-75 is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the MBLJ40X200-75, which matches the 40mm bore, 200mm stroke, 75mm adjust code, 628N push force at 0.5MPa, and G1/4 port. The MBLJ upgrades the body to a riveted rolling-packed design from the original threaded covers.
The usable stroke window is 125-200mm, set by trimming up to 75mm at the rear. The 40mm bore delivers 628N push and 528N pull at 0.5MPa, 880N push at 0.7MPa, and a maximum of 128kgf at 1.0MPa. The adjuster is a travel stop, not a lock, and it uses a fixed rubber bumper, not an air cushion.
