This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MALJ series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement MBLJ40X60-10, 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).

About the Airtac MALJ40 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ40X60-10
The AirTAC MALJ40X60-10 is a discontinued double-acting mini cylinder with a 10 mm rear stroke adjuster, providing a usable travel window of 50-60 mm. The direct replacement is the MBLJ40X60-10, which matches the bore, stroke, G1/4 port, and 128 kgf maximum force.
This SKU lacks the -S magnet option, meaning it cannot accept 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. The original MALJ features threaded covers and a fixed rubber bumper, while the MBLJ upgrade transitions to a riveted rolling-packed body for modern durability.

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 MBLJ40X60-10 carries the same ratings.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø40mm)

| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 108 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 MBLJ40X60-10 matches these values.

Replacing the Airtac MALJ40 Adjustable Mini Cylinder MALJ40X60-10 with MBLJ40X60-10
To replace the MALJ40X60-10, order the exact direct replacement MBLJ40X60-10. Confirm the 40 mm bore, 60 mm stroke, 10 mm adjust code, G1/4 port, PT thread, and FA/LB mounting (no back cover or SDB allowed). Because this SKU has no -S magnet, it cannot support a sensor; if you need position detection, step up to an MBLJ40X60-10S and use the newer CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches instead of the older CS1-M/DS1-M. Remember the adjuster sets the end stop but does not lock the load.
Upgrade checklist
- ✓ Order the MBLJ40X60-10 (same bore/stroke/adjust)
- ✓ Same 50–60 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 MBLJ40X60-10 instead of this discontinued model.
