About the Airtac MBLCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MBLCJ63X160-40
The AirTAC MBLCJ63X160-40 is a compact double-acting mini round cylinder featuring a single Ø16 mm carbon-steel rod and a riveted aluminum barrel. It generates 1558 N push and 1457 N pull force at 0.5 MPa. A rear stopper trims up to 40 mm of travel, setting a usable stroke window of 120 to 160 mm for precise end-positioning.
Screw-tunable air cushions at both ends absorb kinetic energy to protect the end covers during heavy 160 mm moves, unlike the fixed bumper on an MBLJ. The rear stopper sets the travel end but does not hold the load, while the cushion only decelerates. This SKU lacks a built-in magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG or DMSG position sensors. The grease-retaining piston seal ensures long-term lubrication for high-speed cycling.

Where the Airtac MBLCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MBLCJ63X160-40 Is Used
Injection Mold Ejection
Provides 1558 N of push force to eject heavy plastic parts from molds, using the 120-160 mm window to time the exact ejection stroke.
Stamping Press Feed
Handles heavy coil feeding into a stamping press, relying on adjustable air cushions to decelerate the 160 mm travel without slamming.
Bending Fixture Stop
Acts as a robust travel stop in a metal bending fixture, using the rear adjuster to set the 120 mm minimum position for precise bends.
Is the Airtac MBLCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MBLCJ63X160-40 the Right Cylinder?
For lower force needs, stepping down to the 50 mm bore yields 981 N push at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up is impossible as 63 mm is the largest MBL diameter. Choose this MBLCJ over the fixed-stroke MBLC when you need to fine-tune the travel window, or over the MBLJ when your moving mass requires adjustable deceleration rather than a fixed rubber bumper. Remember that the adjuster and cushion are not locking devices; the rod drifts without live air pressure, so use an external guide for side-load protection.
Replacement match: 63 mm bore, 160 mm stroke, 40 mm adjust code, G1/4 port, PT thread, Basic mounting (no FA/LB specified), no magnet. Overall length equals A plus 2 times stroke plus the 40 mm adjuster.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Adjustable window fits your end position
- ✓ Adjuster is a travel stop, not a lock
- ✓ Magnet (S) for sensors?
- ✓ Side load — add a guide on long strokes
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Set the rear stopper for the end position (a travel stop, not a lock).
- check Avoid side load; add an external guide on long strokes.
- check Mounting: Basic / FA flange / LB foot (no SDB, no back-cover code).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac MBLCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MBLCJ63X160-40 FAQ
At 0.5 MPa, this 63 mm bore cylinder provides 1558 N push and 1457 N pull force. At 0.7 MPa, push increases to 2181 N. The maximum theoretical force is 318 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The standard stroke limit for a 63 mm bore is 500 mm.
This specific SKU lacks a built-in magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG or DMSG position sensors. The rear adjuster is a travel stop and the air cushion only decelerates; neither holds the load, so the rod drifts without air pressure.
