The AirTAC Airtac MFCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MFCJ25X250-50S 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 exact extend positions on-site with the AirTAC MFCJ25X250-50S, a JIS-standard round-body mini cylinder featuring a 50mm adjustable stroke window (usable extend 200-250mm) and needle-set variable air cushions at both ends. The riveted SUS304 stainless barrel and aluminium covers yield a body shorter than an ISO 6432 unit for the same 25mm bore and 250mm stroke, resisting mild washdown while saving mounting length.
Driven by filtered air at 1/8" ports, this double-acting actuator delivers 245.3N push and 206.1N pull at 0.5MPa. The integrated piston magnet (-S) supports CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches for position sensing. Factoring a 60% safety margin, it handles a safe working load of about 147N, lifting roughly 12.5kg vertically.

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 extend end by up to 50mm during machine changeovers, using the variable air cushion to soften high-speed impacts on 12.5kg tooling heads.
Set precise diverting distances on the fly for mixed product lines; the 245.3N push force easily handles light package routing without harsh end-of-stroke slamming.
Lift access gates up to 200-250mm while tuning the close position; pair with a pilot check valve to hold the load, as the cushion only decelerates.
Selecting between bores means matching force to mass: the MFCJ20 yields just 157N push at 0.5MPa, while the MFCJ32 jumps to 402.2N. This 25mm bore hits a middle ground with 245.3N, ideal when you need 50mm of on-site extend tuning and high-speed cushioning without stepping up to a 1/4" port. Choose the MFCJ when changeovers require both stroke length tweaks and shock absorption.
Mounting options include LB foot, FA flange, and TC trunnion (no SDB or back-cover). Remember that the air cushion only decelerates near stroke end—it is not a lock. If gravity or air loss risks dropping a load, install an external rod lock or pilot check valve, as the piston will drift.
Quick checklist
This 25mm bore cylinder has a 1/8" port and a 250mm base stroke with a 50mm adjustable extend window (usable 200-250mm). It provides 245.3N push / 206.1N pull at 0.5MPa, 343.4N push / 288.5N pull at 0.7MPa, and a theoretical max of 50kgf at 1.0MPa.
Yes, the -S suffix means it has a piston magnet for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. The external adjuster only shortens the extend end position—it is not a mid-stroke lock. The variable air cushion decelerates motion but cannot hold a load on air loss; use an external rod lock for holding.
