The AirTAC Airtac MBLCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MBLCJ32X200-30 is a genuine double-acting aluminum-barrel mini cylinder with a Ø32mm bore, a 200mm nominal stroke and a rear adjustable-stroke stopper — trim up to 30mm for a usable window of 170–200mm. Adjustable air cushion (both ends).
The AirTAC MBLCJ32X200-30 is a compact double-acting aluminum mini cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster and an adjustable air cushion at both ends. The rear stopper allows you to trim up to 30 mm of travel, creating a usable stroke window of 170 to 200 mm. With a 32 mm bore, it delivers 402 N of push force and 346 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa. This 200 mm stroke length is well-suited for mid-range transfer and actuation tasks requiring precise end-position tuning.
Unlike the base MBLJ which relies on a fixed rubber bumper, this MBLCJ variant uses screw-tunable air deceleration to protect the end covers and absorb kinetic energy from heavier, faster moves. The riveted rolling-packed barrel and heterogeneous two-way grease-retaining piston seal maintain tight pressure containment. Because this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet code, it cannot accommodate a CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position sensor. Additionally, the 12 mm hard-chrome carbon-steel rod is a travel stop, not a mechanical lock; it will drift if air is removed.

Drives a high-speed routing spindle on a 170-200 mm window to cut printed circuit board panels, using the tunable cushion to soften the rapid end-of-stroke deceleration.
Actuates a fabric-guiding tenter arm across a 200 mm span, where the 402 N push force at 0.5 MPa maintains proper material tension without mechanical binding.
Indexes a diverter gate on a packaging line, relying on the 30 mm rear stroke adjustment to perfectly time the 170 mm retracted position for varying container widths.
If you need less force, stepping down to the 25 mm bore drops the output to 245 N push at 0.5 MPa, whereas moving up to the 40 mm bore increases thrust to 628 N. Choose this MBLCJ over the MBLJ when your cycle speed demands tunable end-of-stroke deceleration rather than a fixed bumper, or over the MBLC if you need to fine-tune the travel distance. Remember that the rear adjuster sets the physical end-stop and the cushion only decelerates; neither holds a load in place without live air pressure.
Mounting is restricted to Basic, FA (flange), or LB (foot) configurations; there is no SDB pivot or back-cover option available. To match this exact replacement, specify a 32 mm bore, 200 mm stroke, 30 mm adjuster, G1/8 PT tapered port, and no magnet. Since the stroke is 200 mm, the 12 mm rod is susceptible to side-loading and bending; always guide the load externally to prevent premature seal wear.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, the 32 mm bore provides 402 N of push force and 346 N of pull force. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 563 N. The maximum theoretical force is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The rear stroke adjuster physically limits the piston travel to a 170-200 mm window by acting as a hard stop, whereas the adjustable air cushion uses trapped air to smoothly decelerate the load just before it hits that stop. Neither mechanism locks or holds the load in place without continuous air pressure.
