The AirTAC Airtac MBLCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MBLCJ32X15-10 is a genuine double-acting aluminum-barrel mini cylinder with a Ø32mm bore, a 15mm nominal stroke and a rear adjustable-stroke stopper — trim up to 10mm for a usable window of 5–15mm. Adjustable air cushion (both ends).
The AirTAC MBLCJ32X15-10 is a compact double-acting aluminum mini cylinder engineered for fine-tuned motion control. It features a rear stroke stopper that trims up to 10 mm of travel, creating a tight 5-15 mm usable window for exact positioning. Delivering 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this unit integrates a screw-tunable air cushion at both ends to decelerate the rod smoothly, preventing end-cover damage during rapid cycles.
Built with a riveted rolling-packed barrel and a 20 µm hard-chrome plated carbon-steel rod, it withstands demanding environments. The grease-retaining two-way piston seal ensures long lubrication life. Because this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet code, it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position sensors. The rear adjuster sets the physical travel end, while the separate cushion needle regulates end-of-stroke deceleration—neither component acts as a mechanical lock to hold a load in place.

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.

Handles rapid tool swapping in automated PCB drilling heads, using the 5-15 mm adjustable window to dial in the exact insertion depth without crashing the spindle.
Presses rubber stoppers into glass vials on a high-speed filling line, relying on the tunable air cushion to decelerate the 402 N push force gently and prevent glass fracture.
Feeds thin leather stock through an industrial cutting press, using the short 15 mm stroke and rear stopper to advance the material precisely without over-travel.
When sizing this 32 mm bore, compare its 402 N push force at 0.5 MPa against the smaller 25 mm bore (245 N push) or the larger 40 mm bore (628 N push) to match your payload. Choose the MBLCJ over the MBLJ when your application requires tunable end-deceleration instead of a fixed rubber bumper, or over the MBLC when you need that rear travel-stopper to trim the stroke. To replace this unit, match the 32 mm bore, 15 mm stroke, 10 mm adjust code, G1/8 PT port, and Basic mounting. Since no -S code is present, no sensor is fitted. Mounting is limited to Basic, FA flange, or LB foot; SDB pivot and back-cover options are not available on this profile.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, the push force is 402 N and the pull force is 346 N. At 0.7 MPa, the push force reaches 563 N. The maximum theoretical force is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The rear adjuster is a mechanical travel stop that sets the physical end-of-stroke within a 5-15 mm window. The air cushion uses a screw needle to tune deceleration. Neither holds a load in place; you need external lock mechanisms for position holding.
