The AirTAC Airtac MFCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MFCJ25X250-100S 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.
Tune both the extend reach and the end-of-stroke shock on-site with this 25 mm bore, 250 mm base stroke cylinder. The external adjuster lets you shorten the extend stroke by up to 100 mm (usable range 150-250 mm), while the needle-set variable air cushion at both ends soaks up high-speed impact for smooth, quiet operation.
Built as a JIS-standard round-body mini with a SUS304 stainless barrel and riveted aluminium covers, it packs a 245.3 N push force at 0.5 MPa (206.1 N pull) through a 1/8" port. The -S suffix means a piston magnet is built in for CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches. The compact riveted body is shorter than an ISO 6432 cylinder for the same stroke, saving mounting length. With a safe working load around 147 N, it lifts about 12.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin.

| 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.
Dial in the exact 150-250 mm extend reach and tune the needle air cushion to decelerate the 245.3 N push force smoothly during rapid pressing cycles.
Fine-tune the diverting stroke length on-site for changing package sizes, relying on the SUS304 stainless body to handle mild washdown environments.
Lift loads up to 12.5 kg with a 2:1 safety margin, adjusting the extend end by up to 100 mm to hit varying shelf heights without swapping cylinders.
Size this 25 mm bore against the adjacent options: the MFCJ20 delivers 157 N @0.5 MPa for lighter duties, while the MFCJ32 jumps to 402.2 N @0.5 MPa for heavier loads. Choose the MFCJ25 when you need 245.3 N of push force combined with on-site stroke and cushion tuning for high-speed changeovers or shock-sensitive trial fits.
Mounting uses LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion (no SDB or back-cover). The -S magnet supports CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. Remember that the air cushion only decelerates near the stroke end—it is not a lock. If the load must hold position on air loss, fit an external rod lock or pilot check valve.
Quick checklist
This 25 mm bore cylinder uses a 1/8" port. 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 100 mm (usable 150-250 mm), and the variable air cushion decelerates the piston at both ends. It is double-acting and includes a magnet (-S) for CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. The cushion only decelerates; it does not lock or hold the load on air loss—use an external rod lock for that.
