The AirTAC Airtac MFCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MFCJ25X175-30S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke + cushion JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 175mm 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 both the extend reach and end-of-travel shock on site with this double-acting, variable-cushion mini cylinder. An external adjuster lets you shorten the extend stroke by up to 30 mm (usable range 145-175 mm), while needle air cushions at both ends absorb high-speed impact. The 1/8" port and Ø10 mm rod deliver 245.3 N push at 0.5 MPa.
Built to JIS standards with a SUS304 stainless barrel and riveted aluminium covers, this round-body unit is shorter than an ISO 6432 cylinder of the same bore and stroke, saving valuable mounting length. The -S suffix means a piston magnet is fitted for CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. With a safe working load around 147 N, it lifts about 12.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 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 145-175 mm extend position for multi-part machining fixtures, relying on the needle cushion to soften the stop at high cycling speeds.
Sort lightweight goods on a line using the 245.3 N push force, tweaking the 30 mm stroke window on site to accommodate varying package sizes without shock.
Lift roughly 12.5 kg access flaps or stops with a 2:1 safety margin, using the built-in -S magnet to confirm gate position via reed switches.
Choose between the 20, 25, 32, and 40 mm bores based on your force needs. This 25 mm bore gives 245.3 N push at 0.5 MPa; stepping up to the MFCJ32 yields 402.2 N, while the MFCJ20 offers 157 N. The 30 mm adjustable window here is perfect for changeovers where the exact extend position and deceleration need dialling in.
Mount using LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion brackets. Remember that the air cushion only decelerates the piston near stroke end—it does not lock or hold the load. If you need to prevent drift on air loss, add an external rod lock or pilot check valve.
Quick checklist
This 25 mm bore 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 30 mm (usable range 145-175 mm); retract remains full. The variable air cushion at both ends decelerates the piston near stroke end for smooth stops, but it is not a brake. The -S suffix indicates a built-in magnet for CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors.
