The AirTAC Airtac MBLCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MBLCJ63X160-10 is a genuine double-acting aluminum-barrel mini cylinder with a Ø63mm bore, a 160mm nominal stroke and a rear adjustable-stroke stopper — trim up to 10mm for a usable window of 150–160mm. Adjustable air cushion (both ends).
The AirTAC MBLCJ63X160-10 is a compact double-acting aluminum mini cylinder featuring a rear travel stopper and an adjustable air cushion at both ends. It delivers 1558 N of push force and 1457 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa. The rear adjuster allows you to trim up to 10 mm of travel, creating a precise 150-160 mm usable stroke window for applications needing exact end-of-stroke positioning.
Unlike the fixed rubber bumper found on the MBLJ series, the screw-tunable cushion valves on this unit allow you to dial in end-of-stroke deceleration, absorbing kinetic energy to protect the end covers during heavy, fast moves. The 16 mm carbon-steel rod features 20 um hard-chrome plating, and the riveted rolling-packed barrel utilizes a grease-retaining piston seal. Note that this specific SKU lacks a built-in magnet (-S), meaning it cannot support CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position sensors.

Provides the heavy 1558 N push force needed to eject dense plastic parts from molds, using the 10 mm stroke trim to hit the exact ejection plateau without over-traveling.
Tunes the adjustable air cushion to smoothly decelerate the 160 mm stroke when clamping heavy timber assemblies, preventing sudden impacts that could damage wood joints.
Handles robust 1457 N pull force to retract a sheet metal feeder arm, relying on the riveted aluminum body and hard-chrome rod for durability in abrasive shop environments.
Step down to the 50 mm bore if your application requires less force (it provides 981 N push at 0.5 MPa), or step up to this 63 mm bore if the 50 mm capacity is insufficient. Choose this MBLCJ model over the MBLJ when your moving load requires tuned pneumatic damping instead of a fixed bumper, or over the MBLC when you need the 10 mm rear stroke adjustment to fine-tune the 150-160 mm travel window. Remember that the rear adjuster is a travel stop, not a lock, and the cushion only decelerates; neither will hold a load in place without live air pressure.
Mounting is limited to Basic, FA (flange), or LB (foot) styles, as this series does not support SDB pivots or back-cover (CA/U) configurations. The overall length equals A + 2 x stroke + the 10 mm adjuster. This replacement match features a 63 mm bore, 160 mm stroke, 10 mm adjust code, G1/4 port, PT thread, and no magnet. Because the stroke is 160 mm, ensure external guiding is used to prevent rod bending under high side loads.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, this 63 mm bore cylinder provides 1558 N of push force and 1457 N of pull force. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 2181 N. The maximum theoretical force is 318 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
This specific SKU does not have a built-in magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position sensors. The 10 mm rear adjustment acts as a travel stop to set the 150-160 mm window, and the adjustable air cushion only controls end-of-stroke deceleration; neither feature locks or holds the load in place without continuous air pressure.
