The AirTAC Airtac MFCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MFCJ20X75-20 is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke + cushion JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø20mm bore and 75mm 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 exact end positions and absorb high-speed shock with the AirTAC MFCJ20X75-20 adjustable-stroke mini cylinder. This JIS-standard round-body actuator uses a 1/8" port and an external adjuster to shorten the extend stroke by up to 20 mm on-site, yielding a usable 55-75 mm extend range while retract remains full. A needle variable air cushion at both ends soaks up end-of-stroke impact for smooth deceleration.
Built with a SUS304 stainless barrel and riveted aluminium covers, the compact body is shorter than an ISO 6432 cylinder for the same 20 mm bore and 75 mm stroke, saving valuable mounting length while resisting mild washdown. Generating 157 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, it handles a safe working load of roughly 94 N. Note this SKU lacks the -S magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG/DMSG/EMSG position 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.
Use the 20 mm adjustable window to fine-tune the extend position during short-run changeovers, letting the 94 N safe working load press delicate components without fixed hard stops.
Leverage the variable air cushion to silently absorb end-of-stroke shock on fast diverting arms, preventing bounce while routing lightweight packages at high cycle rates.
Fit the shorter-than-ISO-6432 stainless body into tight conveyor gaps, using the 157 N thrust to push small items precisely across a 55-75 mm adjustable stroke.
When sizing these double-acting cylinders, compare the real thrust: this 20 mm bore provides 157 N push at 0.5 MPa, whereas stepping up to an MFCJ25 yields 245.3 N. Choose the 20 mm bore for lighter, high-speed changeovers where exact stroke length and end-of-stroke shock both need field tuning. The 20 mm adjuster window is ideal for trial fits where the final extend position is not yet fixed.
Mount using LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion brackets (no SDB or back-cover mount exists on this adjustable build). Remember that the air cushion only decelerates the piston near the stroke end—it is not a lock or brake. If the application must hold a vertical load on air loss, add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve, as the piston will drift. Since this specific code lacks the -S suffix, it cannot support magnetic sensors; order the -S variant if position feedback is required.
Quick checklist
This 20 mm bore cylinder features a 1/8" port and an 8 mm rod with an M8x1.25 male thread. It delivers 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 max of 32 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The 75 mm base stroke is adjustable down by 20 mm, and it operates at speeds of 30-800 mm/s.
No, this specific SKU does not include the -S magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. You must order the -S variant for position sensing. Additionally, the external adjuster only shortens the extend stroke end position—it does not act as a mid-stroke lock or brake.
