The AirTAC Airtac MFCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MFCJ25X70-40S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke + cushion JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 70mm 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 distances on-site with the AirTAC MFCJ25X70-40S, a JIS-standard round-body mini cylinder built from SUS304 stainless steel and riveted aluminium covers. An external adjuster shortens the extend stroke by up to 40 mm (usable range 30-70 mm), while needle variable air cushions at both ends absorb high-speed end-of-stroke shock. Because the MF body is shorter than an ISO 6432 cylinder for the same bore and stroke, it saves valuable mounting length without conforming to that standard.
Fitted with a 1/8" port and a 10 mm rod (M10x1.25 thread), this double-acting actuator delivers 245.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. The built-in -S magnet supports CMSG, DMSG and EMSG position switches. For sizing, its safe working load is roughly 147 N, meaning it lifts about 12.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. Note that the cushion only decelerates the piston; use an external rod lock or pilot check valve if you need to hold a load on air loss.

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.
Tune the 40 mm extend window to set precise contact depth, while the variable air cushion decelerates the 245.3 N thrust to prevent impact damage on delicate electronic fittings.
Reconfigure the extend end-position on the fly for different package sizes. The SUS304 stainless barrel handles mild washdowns in packaging lines.
Ideal for test rigs needing exact 30-70 mm extend lengths. The compact JIS body saves space, and the needle cushion softens high-speed 800 mm/s cycles.
Choose this 25 mm bore when you need 245.3 N push at 0.5 MPa with on-the-fly stroke tuning. If your changeover requires less force, the MFCJ20 provides 157 N; if you need heavier thrust, the MFCJ32 offers 402.2 N. This model shines in high-speed changeovers where both the 40 mm extend window and the dual variable air cushions need independent tweaking to prevent shock damage during trial fits.
Mounting options include LB foot, FA flange and TC trunnion (no SDB or back-cover code). The -S magnet enables CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors; a SKU without S cannot take a switch. Remember that the adjuster sets the end position and the cushion only decelerates, so neither acts as a mid-stroke lock or brake.
Quick checklist
This double-acting cylinder has a 1/8" port and a 10 mm rod. It generates 245.3 N push and 206.1 N pull at 0.5 MPa, or 343.4 N push and 288.5 N pull at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical max force is 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating speed ranges from 30-800 mm/s.
The external adjuster shortens the extend stroke by up to 40 mm (usable 30-70 mm). The variable air cushion at both ends uses a needle valve to decelerate the piston near stroke end. It is not a lock or brake; the piston will drift on air loss. For load holding, install an external rod lock or pilot check valve. The -S magnet supports CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors.
