The AirTAC Airtac MBLJ Adjustable Aluminum Alloy Mini Cylinder MBLJ50X125-40 is a genuine double-acting aluminum-barrel mini cylinder with a Ø50mm bore, a 125mm nominal stroke and a rear adjustable-stroke stopper — trim up to 40mm for a usable window of 85–125mm. Fixed rubber bumper.
The AirTAC MBLJ50X125-40 is a double-acting aluminum mini cylinder featuring a rear travel stopper that trims up to 40 mm of stroke, creating a precise usable end-position window of 85-125 mm. Delivering 981 N push and 881 N pull at 0.5 MPa, it suits mid-weight positioning tasks. The Ø16 mm carbon-steel rod has 20 um hard-chrome plating, and the riveted rolling-packed barrel uses a grease-retaining piston seal for long service life.
This SKU is configured with a PT tapered port thread and has NO built-in magnet, meaning it cannot host CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position sensors. A fixed rubber bumper absorbs end-of-stroke impact, while the rear adjuster acts purely as a mechanical travel stop and does not lock the load without live air pressure. Its overall length equals A + 2 x 125 + 40 mm, making it physically longer than a fixed MBL variant.

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.

| 0.7 MPa | 1374 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 200 kgf | |
Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a margin.

Adjusts the folding arm stroke from 85 to 125 mm on the fly to accommodate varying corrugated box heights, utilizing the 981 N push force without changing hardware.
Dials in the exact 85-125 mm insertion depth for press-fitting dowel pins, relying on the 881 N pull force to retract the tooling safely.
Trims the guide roller stroke window to align fabric webs during roll changes, where the fixed rubber bumper handles the rapid repetitive end impacts.
Stepping down to the 40 mm bore yields 628 N push at 0.5 MPa, whereas stepping up to the 63 mm bore provides 1558 N. Choose this 50 mm model when your changeover requires a 981 N force profile with a variable 85-125 mm reach. If your application needs adjustable air cushions rather than a fixed rubber bumper, select the MBLCJ variant; for fixed-length strokes without the rear screw, use the standard MBL.
The rear stopper sets the end position but will not hold the load pneumatically—use an external locking device if position holding is required without air. Mounting is limited to Basic, FA flange, or LB foot styles, as MBLJ excludes back-cover and SDB pivot options. For exact replacements, match the 50 mm bore, 125 mm stroke, 40 mm adjust code, G1/4 port, PT thread, and confirm the absence of the S magnet code.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it provides 981 N push and 881 N pull. At 0.7 MPa push increases to 1374 N. The maximum theoretical force is 200 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The rear stopper allows you to trim the stroke end position back by up to 40 mm, giving a usable travel window of 85-125 mm. It functions only as a travel stop and does not lock the load without live air.
