The AirTAC Airtac MFCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MFCJ25X250-100 is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke + cushion JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 250mm 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 the exact extend position on-site with the AirTAC MFCJ25X250-100, a JIS-standard round-body mini cylinder featuring a 100 mm adjustable stroke window. Built with a SUS304 stainless steel barrel and riveted aluminium covers, this double-acting actuator delivers a 245.3 N push force at 0.5 MPa. The needle-set variable air cushion at both ends soaks up high-speed end-of-stroke shock, ensuring smooth deceleration without acting as a physical lock.
Because the riveted MF body is shorter than a comparable ISO 6432 cylinder for the same 25 mm bore and 250 mm stroke, it saves valuable mounting length. This non-magnet SKU cannot accept a position sensor; add the -S variant for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. With a 1/8" port and 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.
Use the 100 mm adjuster to find the optimal 150 to 250 mm extend endpoint during prototype assembly without machining new spacers.
Leverage the variable air cushion to absorb shock when pushing 12.5 kg packages at speeds up to 800 mm/s without harsh impacts.
Fit the shorter-than-ISO-6432 stainless body into tight machinery cells to deliver 245.3 N of clamping force in washdown-prone areas.
When sizing this actuator, compare the real thrust figures: the MFCJ20 provides 157 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, while the MFCJ32 jumps to 402.2 N. This 25 mm bore strikes a middle ground at 245.3 N, making it ideal when the smaller body lacks authority but the 32 mm is physically too large. The 100 mm adjustable window is perfect for high-speed changeovers where the exact extend endpoint and end-of-stroke shock both require field tuning.
Remember that the variable air cushion only decelerates the piston near the stroke end; it is not a brake. If the machine loses air, the piston drifts, so install an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve for suspended loads. Mounting options include LB foot, FA flange, and TC trunnion (no SDB). Because this specific SKU lacks a magnet, it cannot host reed or solid-state sensors.
Quick checklist
This 25 mm bore cylinder features a 1/8" air port and a 10 mm male rod thread (M10x1.25). 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.
No, this specific SKU does not include a magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. You must select the -S magnet variant for position sensing capabilities.
