The AirTAC Airtac MBLCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MBLCJ40X25-10 is a genuine double-acting aluminum-barrel mini cylinder with a Ø40mm bore, a 25mm nominal stroke and a rear adjustable-stroke stopper — trim up to 10mm for a usable window of 15–25mm. Adjustable air cushion (both ends).
The AirTAC MBLCJ40X25-10 is a compact double-acting aluminum mini cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster and an adjustable air cushion at both ends. The rear stopper trims up to 10mm of travel, creating a usable extension window of 15-25mm. Driven by a Ø16mm carbon-steel rod through a G1/4 port, it delivers 628N push and 528N pull force at 0.5 MPa. This short 25mm stroke is ideal for high-force clamping in tight spaces.
Unlike the fixed rubber bumper on an MBLJ, the screw-tunable air cushion on this model lets you dial in end-of-stroke deceleration, absorbing kinetic energy to protect the end covers during fast, heavy moves. The riveted rolling-packed barrel and grease-retaining piston seal maintain consistent pressure, while the 20µm hard-chrome plating resists wear. Note that this specific SKU lacks a built-in magnet, so it cannot support CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position sensors.

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.

Provides 628N of push force at 0.5 MPa to eject small plastic parts from tight mold cavities, using the 15-25mm adjustable window to time the ejection stroke perfectly.
Drives a short-stroke wiper blade across solder paste stencils, where the tunable air cushion prevents sudden end-impacts from shaking the delicate frame.
Performs light-duty riveting or press-fitting of small bearings, utilizing the 880N available at 0.7 MPa while slowing the rod safely before the end cap.
If 628N of push force is excessive for your payload, step down to the 32mm bore (MBLCJ32 series), which yields 402N at 0.5 MPa. If your application requires shifting heavier jigs, step up to the 50mm bore (MBLCJ50 series) for 981N. The MBLCJ is preferred over the MBLJ when you need active shock tuning rather than a fixed bumper, and over the MBLC when you need to fine-tune the end position. Remember, the rear adjuster is a travel stop, not a load lock; the air cushion only decelerates and does not hold position, so use an external locking device for fail-safe holding.
Mounting is limited to Basic, FA (flange), or LB (foot) styles; this series does not support SDB pivot or back-cover options. The overall length extends by the adjustment amount. To match this exact replacement, verify: 40mm bore, 25mm stroke, 10mm adjust code, G1/4 port, PT thread, and no S (no magnet).
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, this 40mm bore cylinder provides 628N push and 528N pull force. At 0.7 MPa, push increases to 880N. The maximum theoretical force is 128 kgf at the 1.0 MPa pressure limit.
This specific SKU has no built-in magnet (-S omitted), so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors. The 10mm adjustment code means the rear stopper trims travel to a 15-25mm usable window. This sets the end position; it is not a lock, and the air cushion only decelerates the load.
