The AirTAC Airtac MFCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MFCJ25X20-20S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke + cushion JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 20mm 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 end-position and the end-of-stroke shock directly on the machine with this JIS-standard round-body mini cylinder. The MFCJ25X20-20S features a 20 mm adjustable stroke window and a needle-set variable air cushion at both ends, ensuring smooth deceleration for high-speed 30-800 mm/s motion. Its SUS304 stainless barrel and riveted aluminium covers yield a shorter mounting envelope than an ISO 6432 unit while resisting mild washdown corrosion.
Fitted with a 1/8" port and a 10 mm rod (M10x1.25 thread), this double-acting actuator delivers 245.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. The built-in piston magnet (-S) supports CMSG, DMSG and EMSG switches for position sensing. For sizing, it provides a safe working load of roughly 147 N, lifting 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 0-20 mm extend position and cushion needle to quietly eject 12.5 kg assemblies off a conveyor without slamming.
Ideal for changeovers where the 245.3 N push force must seat delicate components precisely, letting operators shorten the stroke on-site to find zero.
Use the shorter JIS body to clamp small workpieces in tight cells, relying on the variable air cushion to absorb the 30-800 mm/s end impact.
Choose this 25 mm bore when you need more force than an MFCJ20 (157 N push @0.5 MPa) but lack the space for an MFCJ32 (402.2 N push @0.5 MPa). The 20 mm adjustable window is perfect for trial fits and high-speed changeovers where the exact extend position and cushion needle both require field tuning. Mount via LB foot, FA flange or TC trunnion (no SDB or back-cover option exists on this adjustable build).
Because the -S magnet is present, you can directly mount CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensors. Remember that the air cushion only decelerates the piston near the stroke end—it is not a brake. If the load must be held during air loss, install an external rod lock or pilot check valve, as the piston will drift.
Quick checklist
This double-acting cylinder uses a 1/8" port and a 10 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 on-site, while the needle variable air cushion at both ends decelerates the piston at high speed. The -S suffix means it has a built-in magnet for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensors; the cushion is for shock absorption only and does not lock the load.
