About the Airtac MBLCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MBLCJ32X500-100
The AirTAC MBLCJ32X500-100 is a compact double-acting aluminum mini cylinder featuring a rear travel stopper and tunable air cushions at both ends. You can trim up to 100 mm of rear travel, yielding a usable stroke window of 400-500 mm. Delivering 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this 500 mm stroke unit is built for long-reach actuation. The riveted rolling-packed barrel and 20 µm hard-chrome plated carbon-steel rod ensure durable service.
Unlike the fixed rubber bumper on an MBLJ, the screw-tunable end cushions here allow you to dial in deceleration for heavier loads moving at high speeds, protecting the end covers. Because this SKU lacks the -S suffix, it has no internal magnet and cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position sensors. Note that the rear stopper sets the end position but does not lock the load, and with a 500 mm stroke on a Ø12 mm rod, an external guide is highly recommended to prevent rod bending under side loads.

| 0.5 MPa | 402 N | 346 N |
| 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.

Where the Airtac MBLCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MBLCJ32X500-100 Is Used
Carton Erector Pusher
Drives the folding arm on automated packaging lines, using the 100 mm stroke adjustment to fine-tune the box size without swapping cylinders, while the air cushion absorbs the 500 mm high-speed impact.
Pallet Diverter Gate
Actuates a routing flap on a 400-500 mm usable stroke window, relying on the 402 N push force to redirect heavy goods and the tunable cushion to prevent end-cover damage during rapid cycling.
Textile Fabric Stretcher
Extends 500 mm to pull tension across wide fabric webs, where the hard-chrome plated Ø12 mm rod resists wear and the adjustable stopper sets the exact material stretch limit.
Is the Airtac MBLCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MBLCJ32X500-100 the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 32 mm bore when you need 402 N of thrust at 0.5 MPa across a 400-500 mm travel window. If your application requires less force, step down to the 25 mm bore, which provides 245 N of push force. If you need to move heavier payloads, step up to the 40 mm bore, delivering 628 N. The MBLCJ gives you an edge over the MBLJ by replacing the fixed bumper with a tunable air cushion for smoother stops, and over the MBLC by adding the 100 mm rear stroke adjuster.
Remember that neither the rear travel stopper nor the adjustable cushion acts as a lock; the rod will drift without live air pressure, so use an external locking mechanism if you must hold position. Mounting is limited to Basic, FA flange, or LB foot styles—there are no SDB pivot or back-cover options. For a direct replacement, match the 32 mm bore, 500 mm stroke, 100 mm adjust code, G1/8 port, PT thread, and confirm no magnet is required. Operating speed spans 30-800 mm/s.
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 MBLCJ32X500-100 FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, this 32 mm bore cylinder provides 402 N of push force and 346 N of pull force. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 563 N, with a maximum theoretical output of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The rear adjuster allows you to trim up to 100 mm of travel, giving an effective stroke window of 400-500 mm.
No, because this specific SKU lacks the -S suffix, it has no built-in magnet and cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors. Additionally, while the adjustable air cushion tunes end-of-stroke deceleration and the rear stopper sets the travel limit, neither component acts as a mechanical lock; the rod will drift if air pressure is lost.
