The AirTAC Airtac MFCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MFCJ25X40-40S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke + cushion JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 40mm 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 extend travel right at the fixture with the AirTAC MFCJ25X40-40S, a JIS-standard round-body mini cylinder that lets you shorten the outward stroke by up to 40 mm on-site. The SUS304 stainless barrel and riveted aluminium covers yield a shorter mounting envelope than an ISO 6432 unit, while the built-in magnet (-S) supports CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG position switches.
Driven by filtered air at 0.15-1.0 MPa through a 1/8" port, this double-acting actuator generates 245.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. Needle-set variable air cushions at both ends absorb end-of-stroke shock across the 30-800 mm/s speed range. Based on the 0.5 MPa thrust, it handles 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.
Fine-tune the 0-40 mm extend endpoint during product changeovers to press or align parts gently using the 245.3 N thrust output.
Use the variable air cushion to silently stop the piston at high cycle rates without slamming, ideal for lightweight package routing.
Leverage the compact JIS body and 1/8" port to apply a safe 147 N working load in shock-sensitive trial-fit and testing jigs.
Weighing the bore sizes, the MFCJ20 provides 157 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, whereas this MFCJ25 hits 245.3 N; stepping up to the MFCJ32 yields 402.2 N. Choose the 25 mm bore when your trial-fit mechanism needs moderate push power combined with on-site stroke tuning and high-speed cushioning. The 40 mm adjustable window is perfect for changeovers where the exact extend endpoint varies.
Remember that the air cushion only decelerates the piston near the end of travel—it does not lock or hold the load. If gravity or air loss could cause drift, fit an external rod lock or pilot check valve. For mounting, select LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion brackets (SDB and back-cover mounts are unavailable). The -S magnet version is required if you intend to use CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors.
Quick checklist
This 25 mm bore cylinder features a 1/8" air port and a 10 mm rod with an M10x1.25 male thread. It delivers 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 force of 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The external adjuster shortens the extend stroke by up to 40 mm on-site, while the retract stroke remains full. Needle-set variable air cushions at both ends absorb high-speed end-of-stroke shock. The -S suffix indicates a built-in magnet for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors.
