The AirTAC Airtac MBLCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MBLCJ32X125-40 is a genuine double-acting aluminum-barrel mini cylinder with a Ø32mm bore, a 125mm nominal stroke and a rear adjustable-stroke stopper — trim up to 40mm for a usable window of 85–125mm. Adjustable air cushion (both ends).
The AirTAC MBLCJ32X125-40 is a compact double-acting mini cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster and tunable air cushions at both ends. It delivers 402 N push and 346 N pull force at 0.5 MPa. The rear stopper trims up to 40 mm of travel, creating a usable end-position window of 85 to 125 mm for exact mid-stroke placement. This 125 mm stroke suits automated ejection and mid-length transfer tasks.
Unlike the fixed rubber bumper on an MBLJ, the screw-tunable cushions on this MBLCJ allow you to dial in end-of-stroke deceleration, absorbing kinetic energy to protect the end covers during faster cycles. The riveted aluminum barrel and 20 µm hard-chrome plated carbon-steel rod ensure durability. Note that this specific SKU lacks a built-in magnet, meaning it cannot support CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position sensors without physical modification.

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.

Uses the 85-125 mm adjustable window to precisely set the ejection height of separated circuit boards, while the air cushion prevents shock to delicate solder joints during the 402 N push.
Tunes the end-of-stroke deceleration to softly fold heavy cardboard carton flaps at high speed, avoiding cover damage that a fixed bumper would cause.
Provides a reliable 346 N pull to retract a routing guide on a filling line, with the rear stopper fixing the exact retracted position to clear passing containers.
For lower force needs, stepping down to the 25 mm bore yields 245 N push at 0.5 MPa, while moving up to the 40 mm bore provides 628 N if your payload requires more authority. Choose this MBLCJ over the MBLJ when your moving mass demands controlled deceleration rather than a hard bumper impact, or over the MBLC when you need that 85-125 mm adjustable end-position window. The rear adjuster sets the travel limit and the cushion regulates speed, but neither acts as a mechanical lock to hold a load in place—external holding is required for drop-safety.
Mounting is restricted to Basic, FA flange, or LB foot styles; no back-cover or SDB pivot options exist for this series. The overall length extends by the 40 mm adjuster dimension. To replace this unit, match the 32 mm bore, 125 mm stroke, 40 mm adjust code, G1/8 port, PT thread, and confirm no magnet is required. The 125 mm stroke is well within the 500 mm maximum for this bore, keeping side-load risk manageable, though an external guide is still recommended for heavy lateral loads.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, this 32 mm bore cylinder provides 402 N push and 346 N pull force. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 563 N, with a theoretical maximum of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The rear adjuster allows you to trim up to 40 mm of travel, creating a usable stroke window from 85 mm to 125 mm.
This specific SKU does not have a built-in magnet, so it cannot support AirTAC CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position sensors. Additionally, the adjustable air cushion only regulates end-of-stroke deceleration, and the rear adjuster acts as a travel stop; neither component will mechanically lock or hold a load in place.
