About the Airtac MBLCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MBLCJ32X500-100S
The AirTAC MBLCJ32X500-100S is a compact double-acting aluminum mini cylinder featuring a rear travel stopper and tunable end-of-stroke deceleration. It delivers 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. The 100 mm rear adjuster creates a usable stroke window of 400 to 500 mm, letting you fine-tune the extended endpoint without mechanical shims.
Equipped with an adjustable air cushion at both ends, this 32 mm bore unit absorbs kinetic energy from heavy 500 mm moves, protecting the end covers better than a fixed rubber bumper. The riveted rolling-packed barrel and 20 µm hard-chrome plated carbon-steel rod withstand harsh industrial environments. An integrated magnet (-S) enables position detection. Note that the rear stopper sets the travel end but does not lock the load, and the cushion only decelerates; neither holds position without live air.

Where the Airtac MBLCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MBLCJ32X500-100S Is Used
Textile Loom Beam Transfer
Shifts heavy fabric beams across a 500 mm span, using the 400-500 mm adjustable window to match varying loom widths while the air cushion prevents end-impact slamming.
PCB Conveyor Gate Diverter
Actuates a routing flap for electronics assembly lines, relying on the 402 N pull force to overcome guide friction and the -S magnet to confirm gate position.
Automated Carton Pusher
Pushes packaging cartons into a sealing station, using the dual adjustable air cushions to decelerate the 500 mm stroke smoothly without bouncing the load.
Is the Airtac MBLCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MBLCJ32X500-100S the Right Cylinder?
This 32 mm bore generates 402 N push at 0.5 MPa. If your payload is lighter, step down to the 25 mm bore (245 N push); for heavier dynamics, step up to the 40 mm bore (628 N push). Choose the MBLCJ over the MBLJ when your moving mass requires tunable pneumatic damping rather than a fixed bumper, or over the MBLC when you need to trim the rear stroke endpoint. Mounting is limited to Basic, FA, or LB styles, as the extended overall length (A + 2 x 500 + 100) prevents back-cover or SDB pivot options.
At 500 mm of travel, the Ø12 mm rod is highly susceptible to side-load bending; always use an external guide rail to support the payload. The replacement match requires a 32 mm bore, 500 mm stroke, 100 mm adjust code, G1/8 port, PT thread, and a built-in magnet. The -S magnet pairs with AirTAC CMSG reed switches and DMSG or EMSG solid-state sensors.
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 MBLCJ32X500-100S 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. The maximum theoretical force is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The 100 mm rear adjuster is a mechanical travel stop that sets your usable stroke window between 400 and 500 mm, but it does not lock or hold the load. The adjustable air cushion at both ends is a screw-tunable valve that regulates exhaust flow to decelerate the piston near the end caps, protecting the cylinder from impact damage.
