The AirTAC Airtac MBLCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MBLCJ32X30-30S is a genuine double-acting aluminum-barrel mini cylinder with a Ø32mm bore, a 30mm nominal stroke and a rear adjustable-stroke stopper — trim up to 30mm for a usable window of 0–30mm. Adjustable air cushion (both ends).
The AirTAC MBLCJ32X30-30S is a compact double-acting aluminum mini cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster and an adjustable air cushion at both ends. You can trim up to 30mm at the rear, creating a usable stroke window of 0 to 30mm for exact end-positioning. Delivering 402N push and 346N pull force at 0.5 MPa, this 32mm bore unit is built for short, rapid moves.
Unlike the fixed rubber bumper on an MBLJ, the screw-tunable cushion on this MBLCJ lets you decelerate heavier loads precisely, protecting the end covers from impact. The riveted rolling-packed barrel and 20um hard-chrome plated carbon-steel rod withstand high cycle rates. The built-in magnet (-S) supports CMSG reed and DMSG/EMSG electronic sensors for position feedback. Note the overall length equals A plus 2x stroke plus the 30mm adjuster, requiring careful spatial planning in tight machines.

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.

| 0.7 MPa | 563 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 82 kgf | |
Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a margin.

Drives the Z-axis plunge on a PCB depaneling router, using the 0-30mm stroke window to dial the exact cutting depth while the air cushion absorbs the rapid retract shock.
Positions a pneumatic dispenser valve over contact pads, relying on the 402N force to overcome spring resistance and the magnet for precise DMSG sensor triggering.
Feeds and crimps small-gauge wire terminals where the 346N pull force retracts the tooling cleanly and the cushion prevents bounce-back.
To size this 32mm bore correctly, consider stepping down to the 25mm bore if your load requires less than 245N push force at 0.5 MPa, or stepping up to the 40mm bore for 628N if your payload is heavier. Choose the MBLCJ over the fixed-stroke MBLC when you need to fine-tune the travel end-point, and over the MBLJ when you need shock absorption rather than a hard bumper. Remember the rear adjuster is a travel stop, not a load-holding lock; use an external guide for side-load protection. Replacement matches: 32mm bore, 30mm stroke, 30mm adjust code, G1/8 port, PT thread, Basic/FA/LB mounting, and a built-in magnet.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, it provides 402N push and 346N pull force. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 563N. The maximum theoretical force is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The rear stroke adjuster is a mechanical stop that trims the travel window from 0 to 30mm. The adjustable air cushion is a separate screw that tunes end-of-stroke deceleration to protect the covers. Neither holds the load; you need live air or an external lock for position holding.
