The AirTAC Airtac MFCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MFCJ25X125-20S 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.
Dial in exact extend positions on-site with the AirTAC MFCJ25X125-20S, a JIS-standard round-body mini cylinder built with a SUS304 stainless barrel and riveted aluminium covers. An external adjuster lets you shorten the extend stroke by up to 20 mm (yielding a 105-125 mm usable window), while needle-set variable air cushions at both ends soak up high-speed end-of-stroke shock. The -S suffix equips the piston with a magnet for position sensing.
Operating at 0.15-1.0 MPa on a 1/8" port with a Ø10 mm rod (M10x1.25 male thread), this double-acting actuator delivers 245.3 N push and 206.1 N pull at 0.5 MPa. It yields a safe working load of roughly 147 N, lifting about 12.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. For the same bore and stroke, this compact body is shorter than an ISO 6432 cylinder, saving valuable mounting length without claiming ISO compliance.

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.
Fine-tune the 105-125 mm extend position on machining fixtures to accommodate part variations, relying on the 245.3 N push force to hold components securely during clamping.
Sort lightweight goods at speed while the variable air cushion silently absorbs end-of-stroke impact, preventing damage to the 12.5 kg payload limit.
Adjust the stroke by up to 20 mm on-site to perfect flap folding depth during format changeovers, ensuring precise positioning without re-mounting the cylinder.
Selecting the right bore requires weighing actual thrust: this 25 mm bore pushes 245.3 N at 0.5 MPa, sitting between the smaller MFCJ20 at 157 N and the larger MFCJ32 at 402.2 N. Choose the 25 mm when you need moderate force for high-speed changeovers or shock-sensitive trial fits where both the end position and deceleration require on-site tuning. The external adjuster sets the extend endpoint, and the variable air cushion decelerates the load near stroke end.
Remember that the cushion is not a lock or brake; the piston drifts if air pressure drops. For vertical or suspended loads that must hold position on air loss, add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve. Mounting options include LB foot, FA flange, and TC trunnion (no SDB or back-cover). Because this SKU includes the -S magnet, you can directly fit CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed or electronic switches.
Quick checklist
This double-acting cylinder features a 1/8" port and a Ø10 mm rod. 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.
The external adjuster shortens the extend stroke by up to 20 mm (usable range 105-125 mm); retract remains full. Needle-set variable air cushions at both ends decelerate the piston near stroke end to reduce shock. The -S magnet allows CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors to detect position.
