The AirTAC Airtac MBLCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MBLCJ40X300-50S is a genuine double-acting aluminum-barrel mini cylinder with a Ø40mm bore, a 300mm nominal stroke and a rear adjustable-stroke stopper — trim up to 50mm for a usable window of 250–300mm. Adjustable air cushion (both ends).
The AirTAC MBLCJ40X300-50S 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, utilizing a Ø16 carbon-steel rod with 20 um hard-chrome plating. The built-in magnet (-S) supports CMSG reed and DMSG or EMSG electronic sensors for precise position detection.
This SKU provides a usable stroke window of 250 to 300 mm by allowing you to trim up to 50 mm of travel at the rear stopper. The adjustable air cushion lets you screw-tune end-of-stroke deceleration to protect the end covers during heavy moves, unlike the fixed rubber bumper found on the MBLJ series. Keep in mind the riveted rolling-packed barrel extends to an overall length of A plus 2 times stroke plus adjust, and the rear stopper sets the travel end but does not 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.

Provides 628 N of push at 0.5 MPa to eject heavy plastic parts, using the 250-300 mm stroke window to time the exact ejection travel point.
Tunes the end-of-stroke air cushion to softly decelerate an 880 N clamping force at 0.7 MPa, preventing impact damage to wooden routing fixtures.
Shifts heavy textile beams during pattern changes, relying on the DMSG electronic sensor to confirm rod extension before the loom accelerates.
If you need less force, the 32 mm bore provides 402 N of push at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to the 50 mm bore yields 981 N for heavier duty. The MBLCJ stands out from the fixed-stroke MBLC by offering a rear travel stopper, and it upgrades the base MBLJ bumper with tunable air cushions. Neither the cushion nor the adjuster acts as a brake; the rod will drift without live air, so use an external locking device for position holding.
Mounting is limited to Basic, FA flange, or LB foot styles, as there is no SDB pivot or back-cover option on this body. When replacing this cylinder, verify the 40 mm bore, 300 mm stroke, 50 mm adjust code, G1/4 port, PT thread form, and the -S magnet. Because this unit uses a 300 mm stroke, the small 16 mm rod is highly susceptible to side-load bending; always guide the load externally to prevent cylinder damage.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, this 40 mm bore cylinder provides 628 N of push force and 528 N of pull force. At 0.7 MPa, the push force reaches 880 N, with a theoretical maximum of 128 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The 40 mm bore supports standard strokes up to 500 mm, so the 300 mm stroke is standard.
The adjustable stroke is a rear travel stopper that lets you trim up to 50 mm of movement, creating a 250 to 300 mm usable window. The adjustable air cushion is a separate screw-tunable valve that controls end-of-stroke deceleration. Neither mechanism locks the load; the rod drifts without live air pressure.
