The AirTAC Airtac MFCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MFCJ25X225-40 is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke + cushion JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 225mm 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 end positions on-site with the AirTAC MFCJ25X225-40, a JIS-standard round-body mini cylinder featuring a 40 mm adjustable extend window (usable extend 185-225 mm) and needle-set variable air cushions at both ends. The riveted SUS304 stainless barrel and aluminium covers yield a body notably shorter than an ISO 6432 unit of the same bore and stroke, saving valuable mounting length while resisting mild washdown corrosion.
Driven by a 1/8" port and Ø10 mm rod, this double-acting actuator delivers 245.3 N push and 206.1 N pull at 0.5 MPa. That translates to a safe working load of roughly 147 N, letting you lift about 12.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. Note this SKU lacks the -S magnet, so it cannot host CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors.

| 0.7 MPa | 344 N | 289 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 50 kgf | |
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.
Fine-tune the 185-225 mm extend reach on machining fixtures to accommodate part height variations without swapping cylinders.
Use the variable air cushion to silently absorb end-of-stroke shock when rapidly pushing 12 kg cartons at line speed.
Leverage the shorter-than-ISO-6432 body length to fit stopping mechanisms into tight conveyor end-of-line frames.
When sizing this series, weigh the MFCJ25 against adjacent bores: the MFCJ20 provides 157 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, while the MFCJ32 jumps to 402.2 N. The MFCJ25 hits a practical middle ground at 245.3 N. Choose the adjustable-stroke and variable-cushion combination for high-speed changeovers or shock-sensitive trial fits where both the end point and deceleration need field tuning.
Mounting options include LB foot, FA flange, and TC trunnion (no SDB or back-cover mount). Because this is a non-magnetized SKU, position sensing is unavailable unless you move to an -S variant. Remember that the air cushion only decelerates the piston near stroke end—it is not a lock; for fail-safe load holding, install an external rod lock or pilot check valve.
Quick checklist
This 25 mm bore cylinder uses a 1/8" port and generates 245.3 N push / 206.1 N pull at 0.5 MPa, and 343.4 N push / 288.5 N pull at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical maximum force is 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa, with an operating speed range of 30-800 mm/s.
No, this specific SKU does not include the -S magnet option, so CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches cannot be mounted. The 40 mm external adjuster shortens the extend stroke mechanically, and the needle air cushions handle deceleration, but neither feature acts as a mid-stroke lock or position hold.
