The AirTAC Airtac MFCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MFCJ25X160-50 is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke + cushion JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 160mm 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.
Tune the extend stroke by up to 50 mm on site and set a needle air cushion at each end for smooth, quiet high-speed motion with the AirTAC MFCJ25X160-50. This double-acting, JIS-standard round-body mini cylinder features a SUS304 stainless barrel and riveted aluminium covers, offering a shorter mounting length than an ISO 6432 unit for the same 25 mm bore and 160 mm stroke.
Delivering 245.3 N push and 206.1 N pull at 0.5 MPa, it suits mid-force changeovers where exact end positions and end-of-stroke shock both need tuning. It yields a safe working load of roughly 147 N and lifts about 12.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. The 1/8" port and M10x1.25 male rod thread simplify integration. Note this SKU lacks the -S magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG/DMSG/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.
Dial in the exact 110-160 mm extend position on packaging changeovers without swapping cylinders, relying on the 245.3 N push to seat components firmly.
Use the needle variable air cushion to soak up end-of-stroke shock on fast 30-800 mm/s sortation pushes, keeping the 25 mm bore motion quiet and stable.
Prototyping a new clamping station is easy: alter the extend end by up to 50 mm on-site to find the perfect reach, lifting roughly 12.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin.
When sizing this series, compare the real thrust: the MFCJ20 provides 157 N push at 0.5 MPa, this MFCJ25 hits 245.3 N, and the MFCJ32 offers 402.2 N. Choose the 25 mm bore when your trial fits or high-speed changeovers need that intermediate force. The external adjuster shortens the extend stroke within the 50 mm window (usable extend 110-160 mm), while the variable air cushion decelerates the piston near the ends.
Remember that the cushion only absorbs shock and the adjuster only sets the end position—neither acts as a lock. The piston will drift on air loss, so fit an external rod lock or pilot check valve to hold a suspended load. Mount via LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion (no SDB or back-cover here). If you need position sensing, select the -S magnet variant instead of this base model.
Quick checklist
This 25 mm bore cylinder has a 1/8" port and an M10x1.25 male rod thread. It pushes 245.3 N and pulls 206.1 N at 0.5 MPa, pushes 343.4 N and pulls 288.5 N at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical max of 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating pressure is 0.15-1.0 MPa and speed is 30-800 mm/s.
This specific SKU lacks the -S magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches. The variable air cushion only decelerates the piston near stroke end to reduce shock; it is not a brake. The piston drifts on air loss, so use an external rod lock or pilot check valve for position holding.
