The AirTAC Airtac MBLCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MBLCJ40X200-100S is a genuine double-acting aluminum-barrel mini cylinder with a Ø40mm bore, a 200mm nominal stroke and a rear adjustable-stroke stopper — trim up to 100mm for a usable window of 100–200mm. Adjustable air cushion (both ends).
The AirTAC MBLCJ40X200-100S is a compact double-acting aluminum mini cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster and an adjustable air cushion at both ends. It delivers 628 N of push force and 528 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa. The 100 mm adjustment code lets you trim the rear travel stopper, creating a usable stroke window from 100 mm to 200 mm to fine-tune the end position without mechanical shims.
Unlike the fixed rubber bumper found on the MBLJ series, the screw-tunable end cushions on this SKU allow you to dial in deceleration for heavier 200 mm traverses, protecting the end covers. The built-in magnet (-S) enables position detection using AirTAC CMSG reed or DMSG/EMSG electronic switches. The riveted rolling-packed barrel and 20 µm hard-chrome plated carbon-steel rod ensure durable, low-friction operation.

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.

Lifts and lowers a routing spindle across the 100-200 mm window. The adjustable cushion decelerates the 628 N push force smoothly to protect the spindle bearings at stroke end.
Actuates carton folding arms at high cycle rates. The rear travel stopper sets the exact 150 mm fold depth, while the magnet confirms arm retraction via a DMSG sensor.
Transfers heavy warp beams laterally. The tunable air cushions absorb the kinetic energy of the 16 mm rod and attached load, preventing end-cover damage during rapid 200 mm shifts.
Stepping down to the 32 mm bore drops the 0.5 MPa push force to 402 N, while stepping up to the 50 mm bore increases it to 981 N. Choose this 40 mm model when your payload requires roughly 60 kg of push force at standard pressure. Select MBLCJ over MBLJ when your moving mass demands tunable end-of-stroke deceleration rather than a fixed impact bumper, or choose MBLC if you need a fixed stroke without a rear adjuster.
Remember that the rear adjuster is a travel stop, not a lock; it sets the endpoint but does not hold the load, and the cushion only decelerates. Mounting is limited to Basic, FA, or LB styles, as no back-cover or SDB pivot option exists. To replace this unit, match the 40 mm bore, 200 mm stroke, 100 mm adjust code, G1/4 port, PT thread, and -S magnet. Since the stroke is 200 mm, use an external guide to prevent side-loading on the Ø16 mm rod.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it provides 628 N push and 528 N pull. At 0.7 MPa push increases to 880 N. The maximum theoretical force is 128 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The rear adjuster mechanically limits the stroke, creating a usable travel window of 100 to 200 mm. It is a travel stop, not a lock, and will not hold a load in place without live air pressure. The separate adjustable air cushion only controls end-of-stroke deceleration.
