The AirTAC Airtac MBLCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MBLCJ20X150-75 is a genuine double-acting aluminum-barrel mini cylinder with a Ø20mm bore, a 150mm nominal stroke and a rear adjustable-stroke stopper — trim up to 75mm for a usable window of 75–150mm. Adjustable air cushion (both ends).
The AirTAC MBLCJ20X150-75 is a compact double-acting mini cylinder featuring a rear travel stopper and tunable air cushions at both ends. The 75 mm adjuster trims the 150 mm stroke, yielding a usable extension window of 75 to 150 mm. Delivering 157 N push and 132 N pull at 0.5 MPa, it suits moderate-force positioning tasks. The adjustable cushion slows the piston near the end covers, absorbing kinetic energy to prevent harsh impacts.
This SKU omits the built-in magnet, meaning it cannot host CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position sensors. The riveted aluminum barrel and 20 µm hard-chrome plated Ø8 mm carbon-steel rod provide durable service. Note the rear stopper sets the travel end but does not lock the load; external mechanics must hold position when air is removed. Overall length extends by the adjustment dimension.

The rear stopper sets the end position — it is a travel stop, not a lock. Overall length = A + 2 × stroke + adjustable stroke. MBLJ/MBLCJ mounting is Basic / FA / LB only (no SDB, no back-cover code). Thread options: PT / G / NPT.

Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a margin.

Uses the 75-150 mm stroke window to set the exact cut depth on a routing saw, while the air cushion protects the end covers from the 157 N thrust during rapid feed.
Tunes the rear stopper to tamp labels at varying protrusions without re-mounting the cylinder, relying on the 132 N pull force for smooth retraction.
Decelerates the piston near the end of the 150 mm stroke to prevent parts from bouncing out of the collection chute, avoiding the abrupt stop of a fixed bumper.
Step down to a 12 mm bore for lighter duties, or up to a 25 mm bore (245 N push at 0.5 MPa) if your payload exceeds 157 N. Choose this MBLCJ over the MBLJ if your application requires screw-tunable end-of-stroke deceleration rather than a fixed rubber bumper. Compared to the MBLC, this model adds the rear stroke adjuster for variable travel limits.
The 75 mm adjustment screw acts as a hard mechanical stop, not a brake, and the air cushion only decelerates; neither holds position without continuous air pressure. Mounting is restricted to Basic, FA flange, or LB foot styles—no SDB pivot or back-cover options exist. For exact replacements, match the 20 mm bore, 150 mm stroke, 75 mm adjust code, G1/8 port, PT thread, and lack of an S magnet. At 150 mm stroke, the small Ø8 mm rod is susceptible to side-loading; use an external guide to prevent bending.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, this 20 mm bore cylinder provides 157 N push and 132 N pull force. At 0.7 MPa, push increases to 220 N, with a theoretical maximum of 32 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The 75 mm rear adjuster allows you to vary the usable stroke window from 75 mm up to the full 150 mm.
This specific SKU lacks the -S magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position switches. The rear screw is a travel stop that sets the end position, and the adjustable air cushion only regulates deceleration speed; neither component mechanically locks or holds the load when air pressure is removed.
