The AirTAC Airtac MFCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MFCJ20X125-75 is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke + cushion JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø20mm bore and 125mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a SUS304 stainless-steel barrel for mildly corrosive environments. For the same bore and stroke it is shorter than an ISO 6432 cylinder, saving mounting space.
Dial in the exact extend position on-site with the AirTAC MFCJ20X125-75, a JIS-standard round-body mini cylinder featuring a 75 mm adjustable stroke window (usable extend 50-125 mm) and needle-set variable air cushions at both ends. The SUS304 stainless steel barrel and riveted aluminium covers yield a shorter mounting envelope than an ISO 6432 unit of the same bore and stroke, resisting mild washdown while saving space.
Driven by a 20 mm bore and a 1/8" port, this double-acting actuator delivers 157 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, making its safe working load roughly 94 N or about 8 kg of vertical lift with a 2:1 margin. The cushions soak up end-of-stroke shock at high speed but do not lock the load; this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet, so it cannot host CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches.

Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a safety margin.

MF-family variants: MF / MFC (double acting ±cushion), MSF / MTF (single acting push / pull), MFD / MFCD (double rod ±cushion), MFJ / MFCJ (adjustable stroke ±cushion). Back covers CA / U / CM. Mounting LB / FA / SDB / TC.
Perfect for dialing in a 50-125 mm extend during prototype assembly, using the 75 mm adjuster to find the exact contact distance without swapping cylinders.
Pushes small packages at speed; the variable air cushion silently decelerates the 157 N thrust at the extend end to prevent harsh impacts on the diverter arm.
Sets a precise physical stop for incoming parts on a line, allowing operators to shorten the extend stroke on the fly as product sizes change.
When sizing these adjustable-stroke units, compare the real thrust: this 20 mm bore provides 157 N push at 0.5 MPa, whereas stepping up to the MFCJ25 yields 245.3 N. Choose the 20 mm bore for lighter, high-speed changeovers where exact end-position tuning and shock absorption matter more than raw power. If you need position feedback, select the -S magnet variant instead, as this base model cannot accept a sensor.
Mounting options include LB foot, FA flange and TC trunnion (with no SDB or back-cover option available on this adjustable build). Remember that the air cushion only decelerates the piston near the stroke end—it is not a brake. To prevent drifting on air loss, install an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve.
Quick checklist
This 20 mm bore cylinder uses a 1/8" port and an M8x1.25 male rod thread. It generates 157 N push and 131.9 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 219.8 N push and 184.7 N pull at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical maximum of 32 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, this specific SKU does not include the -S magnet, so it cannot host CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches. The external adjuster shortens the extend stroke by up to 75 mm, and the variable air cushion decelerates the piston, but neither feature acts as a mid-stroke lock.
