The AirTAC Airtac MFCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MFCJ25X125-20 is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke + cushion JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm 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.
Trim the extend stroke by up to 20 mm on site with the AirTAC MFCJ25X125-20, a JIS-standard round-body mini cylinder built from an SUS304 stainless barrel and riveted aluminium covers. This double-acting actuator pushes with 245.3 N at 0.5 MPa and pulls with 206.1 N, while needle-set variable air cushions at both ends soak up high-speed end-of-stroke shock for smooth, quiet motion. The 1/8" air port and M10x1.25 male rod thread simplify integration, and the riveted body is noticeably shorter than an ISO 6432 cylinder of the same bore and stroke, saving valuable mounting length.
Because this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet option, it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG magnetic switches. For sizing context, the 245.3 N output at 0.5 MPa translates to a safe working load of roughly 147 N, lifting about 12.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. Remember that the external adjuster only sets the end position between 105 and 125 mm, and the cushions merely decelerate the piston, they do not lock the load or hold position if air pressure drops.

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.
Tune the 105-125 mm extend reach on the fly to deflect lightweight packages of varying widths, relying on the 147 N safe working load and air cushions to handle fast cycling.
Dial in the exact 20 mm adjustment window for delicate electronic connector seating, using the needle cushions to prevent impact damage at high operating speeds.
Adjust the stop position for different pallet depths while the variable air cushions absorb the kinetic energy of incoming goods without requiring a hard bumper.
When sizing this adjustable-stroke actuator, weigh the 245.3 N push force at 0.5 MPa against the adjacent bores: the MFCJ20 delivers 157 N for lighter tasks, while the MFCJ32 jumps to 402.2 N for heavier loads. The 20 mm extend trim window and dual variable air cushions make the MFCJ25X125-20 ideal for high-speed changeovers or shock-sensitive trial fits where both the end position and deceleration need on-site tuning. Mounting options include LB foot, FA flange, and TC trunnion, but there is no SDB or back-cover mount available. If your application requires position holding on air loss, add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve, as the cushion only decelerates and the piston will drift without pressure.
Quick checklist
This 25 mm bore cylinder features a 1/8" air port and an M10x1.25 male rod thread. It generates 245.3 N push and 206.1 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 343.4 N push and 288.5 N pull at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical maximum of 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, this specific SKU does not include the -S magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. You must choose the -S variant for position sensing, and note that the external adjuster only shortens the extend stroke, it does not act as a mid-stroke lock.
