The AirTAC Airtac MBLCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MBLCJ40X200-10S 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 10mm for a usable window of 190–200mm. Adjustable air cushion (both ends).
The AirTAC MBLCJ40X200-10S is a compact double-acting aluminum mini cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster and a tunable air cushion at both ends. The integrated -S magnet allows CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensor switches to track rod position. A Ø16 carbon-steel rod with 20 μm hard-chrome plating drives 628 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. The 10 mm rear trimmer yields a usable 190-200 mm travel window, making it ideal for fine-tuning end positions in mid-range packaging equipment.
Screw-tunable end cushions decelerate heavier 64 kg payloads to protect the end covers, a distinct advantage over the fixed bumper found on the MBLJ series. The riveted rolling-packed barrel pairs with a heterogeneous two-way grease-retaining piston seal to maintain consistent lubrication over millions of 30-800 mm/s cycles. Note that the rear stopper sets the travel end; it does not mechanically lock the load in place.

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.

Drives the folding mechanism on continuous-motion carton erectors where 628 N of push force securely creases heavy corrugated board, while the air cushion absorbs the 200 mm stroke impact.
Positions guide rails on rotary bottle filling lines; the 190-200 mm adjustable window lets operators dial in exact lane spacing without moving physical hard stops.
Feeds strapping heads on automated pallet wrappers, using the M12x1.25 rod-end thread to attach a custom feed guide that maintains tension across the 200 mm extension.
This 40 mm bore delivers 628 N push and 528 N pull at 0.5 MPa. If your assembly needs less force, step down to the 32 mm bore (402 N push), or step up to the 50 mm bore (981 N push) for heavier lifting. The MBLCJ is preferred over the MBLJ when you need active end-of-stroke deceleration rather than a fixed rubber bumper. For fixed travel without a rear adjuster, choose the MBLC series.
When ordering a replacement, verify the 40 mm bore, 200 mm stroke, 10 mm adjust code, G1/4 port, PT thread, and the -S magnet. Mounting is limited to Basic, FA flange, or LB foot; there is no SDB pivot or back-cover option. Because the rear adjuster is a travel stop and the cushion only decelerates, any requirement to hold position without live air requires an external locking device.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, the 40 mm bore generates 628 N push and 528 N pull force. At 0.7 MPa, push increases to 880 N. The maximum theoretical force is 128 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The 10 mm rear adjuster is a mechanical travel stop that sets your usable extension window between 190-200 mm. The adjustable air cushion is a separate screw-tunable valve that controls hydraulic-style deceleration at the stroke ends to prevent end-cover damage. Neither feature locks the load in place.
