The AirTAC Airtac MBLCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MBLCJ32X50-30S is a genuine double-acting aluminum-barrel mini cylinder with a Ø32mm bore, a 50mm nominal stroke and a rear adjustable-stroke stopper — trim up to 30mm for a usable window of 20–50mm. Adjustable air cushion (both ends).
The AirTAC MBLCJ32X50-30S is a compact double-acting aluminum mini cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster and an adjustable air cushion at both ends. The 30mm adjuster allows you to trim the rear travel, creating a usable end-position window of 20 to 50 mm. Driven by a Ø12 mm carbon-steel rod with 20 µm hard-chrome plating, it delivers 402 N of push force and 346 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa. The built-in magnet (-S) supports CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG sensor switches for position detection.
This model separates travel stopping from end-of-stroke deceleration. The rear adjuster acts as a mechanical stop to set the exact end position, while the screw-tunable air cushion regulates the speed of the piston near the covers to prevent impact damage. Unlike the fixed rubber bumper found on the MBLJ series, this adjustable cushion allows you to optimize deceleration for varying loads. The riveted rolling-packed barrel and heterogeneous two-way grease-retaining piston seal maintain consistent lubrication over a 30-800 mm/s speed range.

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.

Uses the 20-50 mm adjustable window to fine-tune the exact plunge depth of a 402 N drill head, while the tunable air cushion prevents end-cap shock during rapid retraction.
Adjusts fabric guide positioning dynamically, leveraging the DMSG electronic sensor feedback and the 346 N pull force to maintain consistent material tension.
Employs the 30 mm rear stopper to shorten the ejection stroke from 50 mm to 20 mm, keeping the 12 mm rod clear of the main conveyor mechanism while cushioning the return.
Stepping down to the 25 mm bore reduces the output to 245 N push at 0.5 MPa, which may be insufficient for heavier mid-stroke loads, while stepping up to the 40 mm bore increases the force to 628 N if your payload exceeds the 402 N rating of this 32 mm unit. Choose the MBLCJ over the MBLJ when your application requires tunable deceleration rather than a fixed bumper, or over the MBLC when you need to fine-tune the end position rather than using a fixed stroke. The G1/8 port and PT thread form are standard for this bore size.
When ordering a replacement, verify the 32 mm bore, 50 mm stroke, 30 mm adjust code, PT thread, and the -S magnet. Mounting is limited to Basic, FA (flange), or LB (foot); this series does not offer a back-cover or SDB pivot option. The rear adjuster sets the travel end and the cushion decelerates the load, but neither component mechanically locks the rod or holds position without continuous air pressure.
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 increases to 563 N. The maximum theoretical force is 82 kgf at the 1.0 MPa pressure limit.
The 30 mm adjustable stroke is a rear mechanical stopper that physically limits the travel window to 20-50 mm, setting the exact end position. The adjustable air cushion is a screw-tunable valve that regulates exhaust flow to decelerate the piston near the end covers. Neither feature locks or holds the load in place without live air pressure.
