About the Airtac MBLCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MBLCJ32X20-20S
The AirTAC MBLCJ32X20-20S 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 20 mm adjustable trimmer creates a usable 0-20 mm end-position window, ideal for fine-tuning short-travel clamping. A built-in magnet enables position detection.
Screw-tunable end cushions decelerate the rod to protect the covers, unlike the fixed bumper on an MBLJ. The rear adjuster sets the travel stop but does not lock the load. This SKU uses a G1/8 port, an Ø12 mm hard-chrome rod, and a riveted aluminum barrel for tight spaces. It is a non-ISO mini cylinder.

Where the Airtac MBLCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MBLCJ32X20-20S Is Used
PCB Edge Clamping
Tunes a 0-20 mm contact window to grip delicate circuit boards in an SMT fixture without overshooting, using 402 N of clamping force.
Label Applicator Stop
Adjusts the exact stroke end to press a label roller onto packaging film, while the air cushion prevents harsh impact at 800 mm/s.
Small Part Ejection
Pushes light plastic moldings out of a press die, relying on the DMSG solid-state sensor to confirm full retraction before the next cycle.
Is the Airtac MBLCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MBLCJ32X20-20S the Right Cylinder?
If 245 N push at 0.5 MPa is enough, step down to the 25 mm bore to save space. For heavier pressing, the 40 mm bore yields 628 N. Choose MBLCJ over MBLJ when you need tunable deceleration, or MBLC for fixed stroke. The rear adjuster and cushions are not brakes; use an external lock for position holding. Mounting is Basic, FA, or LB only. For exact replacement match: 32 mm bore, 20 mm stroke, 20 mm adjust, G1/8 PT thread, no FA/LB mount, with -S magnet.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Adjustable window fits your end position
- ✓ Adjuster is a travel stop, not a lock
- ✓ Magnet (S) for sensors?
- ✓ Side load — add a guide on long strokes
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Set the rear stopper for the end position (a travel stop, not a lock).
- check Avoid side load; add an external guide on long strokes.
- check Mounting: Basic / FA flange / LB foot (no SDB, no back-cover code).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac MBLCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MBLCJ32X20-20S FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, it provides 402 N push and 346 N pull force. At 0.7 MPa, push increases to 563 N. The maximum theoretical force is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The rear adjustable stroke is a mechanical travel stop that trims the end position within a 0-20 mm window, but it does not hold the load. The adjustable air cushion is a screw-tunable valve that decelerates the piston near the end covers to prevent impact damage; it is not a lock.
