The AirTAC Airtac MBLJ Adjustable Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MBLJ25X50-50S is a genuine double-acting aluminum-barrel mini cylinder with a Ø25mm bore, a 50mm nominal stroke and a rear adjustable-stroke stopper — trim up to 50mm for a usable window of 0–50mm. Fixed rubber bumper.
The AirTAC MBLJ25X50-50S is a double-acting, single-rod aluminum mini cylinder featuring a rear adjustable stroke. By turning the rear stopper screw, you can trim the extend end position by up to 50 mm, providing a usable working window of 0 to 50 mm for this 50 mm stroke model. It delivers 245 N push and 206 N pull force at 0.5 MPa, making it well-suited for medium-duty positioning and actuation tasks.
This SKU includes a built-in magnet (-S) for compatibility with AirTAC CMSG reed and DMSG/EMSG electronic sensor switches to track rod position. The riveted rolling-packed aluminum barrel uses a heterogeneous two-way grease-retaining piston seal, while the Ø10 mm carbon-steel rod features 20 µm hard-chrome plating for wear resistance. End-of-travel impact is absorbed by a fixed rubber bumper. The rear adjuster acts only as a travel stop to set your end position; it does not hold the load without live air pressure.

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.

Dial in the 0-50 mm extend position on the fly to match varying carton widths, using the 245 N push force at 0.5 MPa to positively seat folding flaps without crushing the board.
Fine-tune the yarn guide rod end-point during material changeovers, leveraging the 206 N pull force to maintain consistent tension across different thread densities.
Utilize the -S magnet with a DMSG solid-state sensor to verify the extend position of the test head, trimming the stroke up to 50 mm to accommodate different PCB stack heights.
When sizing this cylinder, consider stepping down to the MBLJ20 variant if your application requires less force (157 N push at 0.5 MPa), or stepping up to the MBLJ32 if you need greater thrust (402 N push at 0.5 MPa). The MBLJ25X50-50S is ideal when you need on-the-fly end-position tuning during product changeovers without swapping the cylinder or adding external physical stops.
For replacements, verify this exact configuration: 25 mm bore, 50 mm stroke, 50 mm adjustable code, G1/8 port, PT thread, and the -S magnet. Mounting is limited to Basic, FA (flange), or LB (foot) brackets; this series does not support SDB pivot or back-cover mounts. Note that the overall length is longer than a fixed MBL cylinder (A + 2 x stroke + 50 mm adjust). If your system requires adjustable end cushioning rather than a fixed rubber bumper, select the MBLCJ variant instead. Because the rear stopper and bumper only set and soften the travel end, an external locking device is required to hold a load without continuous air pressure.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, this 25 mm bore double-acting cylinder provides 245 N push and 206 N pull force. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 343 N. The theoretical maximum force is 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The rear stopper screw lets you trim the extend end position by up to 50 mm, creating a usable stroke window from 0 to 50 mm. This adjuster is a travel stop that sets the end position; it does not lock or hold the load without live air pressure.
