The AirTAC Airtac MBLCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MBLCJ25X150-75 is a genuine double-acting aluminum-barrel mini cylinder with a Ø25mm 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 MBLCJ25X150-75 is a compact double-acting aluminum mini cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster and an adjustable air cushion at both ends. The rear stopper allows you to trim up to 75 mm of travel, creating a usable 75-150 mm stroke window. Driven by a Ø10 mm carbon-steel rod with 20 µm hard-chrome plating, it delivers 245 N push and 206 N pull at 0.5 MPa. This 150 mm stroke suits mid-range positioning tasks on compact machinery.
Unlike the base MBLJ with its fixed rubber bumper, the screw-tunable air cushion on this unit decelerates heavier or faster moving loads right at the stroke ends to protect the end covers. The riveted rolling-packed barrel and heterogeneous two-way grease-retaining piston seal maintain consistent lubrication. Note that this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet option, meaning it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position sensors. The adjuster is a travel stop, not a load lock; external guides are recommended for this length to prevent rod bending.

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.

Pushes lightweight routing gates on SMT lines using 245 N force, while the 75-150 mm stroke window dials in exact board transfer alignment without repositioning brackets.
Lowers vacuum grippers in assembly cells where the adjustable air cushion brakes the 150 mm descent, preventing hard impacts that misalign delicate surface-mounted components.
Maintains tension on fiber-winding machines; the rear stopper sets a precise 75 mm travel limit to prevent slack, while the cushion softens the rapid reversal strokes.
If you need less force, step down to the Ø20 bore, which yields 157 N push at 0.5 MPa. For heavier pushing, the Ø32 bore provides 402 N. Choose this MBLCJ over the MBLJ when your cycle speeds require tunable end-of-stroke deceleration rather than a simple fixed bumper, or over the MBLC if you need to fine-tune the travel end. Remember that neither the rear adjuster nor the cushion acts as a lock; the rod drifts without live air, so use an external locking mechanism for fail-safe holding. Mounting is limited to Basic, FA, or LB styles (no SDB or back-cover options). For a direct replacement, match the 25 mm bore, 150 mm stroke, 75 mm adjust, G1/8 port, PT thread, and confirm no magnet is fitted. At 150 mm stroke, the small 10 mm rod is susceptible to side-load bending, so external guidance is essential.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, this 25 mm bore cylinder provides 245 N push and 206 N pull force. At 0.7 MPa, the push force is 343 N. The maximum theoretical force is 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The operating pressure range is 0.15-1.0 MPa.
The rear adjustable stroke is a mechanical travel stop that lets you trim the usable window down to 75-150 mm. The adjustable air cushion is a screw-tunable valve that decelerates the piston near the end covers. Neither holds position; without live air, the rod drifts, so you need an external lock for fail-safe holding.
