The AirTAC Airtac MBLCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MBLCJ32X175-100 is a genuine double-acting aluminum-barrel mini cylinder with a Ø32mm bore, a 175mm nominal stroke and a rear adjustable-stroke stopper — trim up to 100mm for a usable window of 75–175mm. Adjustable air cushion (both ends).
The AirTAC MBLCJ32X175-100 is a compact double-acting aluminum mini cylinder featuring a rear travel stopper and screw-tunable air cushions at both ends. The 100mm adjuster trims the return position, creating a usable 75-175mm stroke window. Delivering 402N push and 346N pull at 0.5MPa, it suits mid-weight handling tasks. The riveted rolling-packed barrel and 20um hard-chrome plated carbon-steel rod withstand high cycle counts.
Unlike the base MBLJ with its fixed rubber bumper, this version lets you dial in end-of-stroke deceleration to protect the end covers during heavier, faster moves. The rear stopper sets the travel end but does not hold the load; a plain cylinder drifts without live air. This SKU lacks a built-in magnet, so it cannot accept a CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position sensor. Overall length equals A plus 2x stroke plus the 100mm adjuster.

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.

Lifts and lowers a spindle on a printed circuit board routing machine, using the 402N force and tuned cushion to prevent impact chatter at the 175mm stroke end.
Actuates the fabric take-up roller mechanism in a weaving loom, where the 100mm rear adjuster dials in the exact 75-175mm fabric pull length without re-mounting.
Drives the capping head on a rotary beverage line, relying on the adjustable air cushion to softly decelerate the 346N pull during high-speed capping cycles.
Step down to the 25mm bore if your load requires less than 245N push at 0.5MPa, or step up to the 40mm bore for 628N if moving heavier jigs. Choose this MBLCJ over the MBLJ when you need to tune end-of-stroke deceleration rather than hitting a fixed rubber bumper, or pick the MBLC if you need a fixed stroke without the rear adjuster. Remember, the 100mm adjuster is a travel stop, not a lock; the cushion only decelerates. Mounting is limited to Basic, FA flange, or LB foot (no SDB or back cover). For an exact replacement, match the 32mm bore, 175mm stroke, 100mm adjust code, G1/8 port, PT thread, and no magnet. Because the 175mm stroke is long relative to the Ø12mm rod, use an external guide to prevent side-load bending.
Quick checklist
At 0.5MPa, the 32mm bore provides 402N push and 346N pull force. At 0.7MPa, push increases to 563N. The maximum theoretical force is 82kgf at 1.0MPa. Operating pressure ranges from 0.15 to 1.0MPa.
No. This specific MBLCJ32X175-100 SKU lacks the -S code, meaning it has no built-in magnet and cannot accept AirTAC CMSG (reed), DMSG, or EMSG (electronic) sensor switches. You would need an -S variant for position detection.
