The AirTAC Airtac MBLCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MBLCJ25X40-10S is a genuine double-acting aluminum-barrel mini cylinder with a Ø25mm bore, a 40mm nominal stroke and a rear adjustable-stroke stopper — trim up to 10mm for a usable window of 30–40mm. Adjustable air cushion (both ends).
The AirTAC MBLCJ25X40-10S is a compact double-acting aluminum mini cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster and a tunable air cushion at both ends. It delivers a 245 N push force at 0.5 MPa. The integrated -S magnet enables position detection via CMSG reed or DMSG/EMSG solid-state switches.
This SKU features a 10 mm rear stroke adjuster, creating a usable travel window of 30 to 40 mm. Unlike the fixed rubber bumper on an MBLJ, the screw-tunable end cushions decelerate heavier loads to protect the end covers. The riveted rolling-packed barrel and 20 µm hard-chrome plated carbon-steel rod ensure durable, low-friction operation.

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.

| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 50 kgf | |
Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a margin.

Drives a routing spindle at 30-40 mm travel to cut printed circuit boards, using the tunable air cushion to soften end-of-stroke impact and protect the spindle bearings.
Adjusts a 10 mm window for precise chemical dosing valve seating, relying on the 245 N push force to consistently open viscous fluid lines.
Kicks molded plastic parts out of a press using the 343 N push force at 0.7 MPa, with the cushion tuned to prevent the components from bouncing.
With a 245 N push force at 0.5 MPa, stepping down to a 20 mm bore yields 157 N for lighter jobs, while stepping up to a 32 mm bore provides 402 N for heavier lifts. Choose the MBLCJ over the fixed-stroke MBLC when you need to fine-tune the end position. The rear adjuster acts as a travel stop, not a load lock, so use an external guide for side loads. Mounting is restricted to Basic, FA, or LB; no SDB or back-cover options exist. To replace this unit, match the 25 mm bore, 40 mm stroke, 10 mm adjust code, G1/8 port, PT thread, and -S magnet.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it provides 245 N push and 206 N pull. At 0.7 MPa push is 343 N, and the maximum theoretical force is 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The rear adjuster trims the travel window down to 30-40 mm by acting as a mechanical stop. The air cushion only decelerates the piston near the end covers to reduce impact. Neither holds the load; a separate lock is needed for position holding.
