Airtac MFCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MFCJ32X160-20
The AirTAC Airtac MFCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MFCJ32X160-20 is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke + cushion JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 160mm stroke, 1/4" 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.

About the Airtac MFCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MFCJ32X160-20
Tune both the extend end-point and the end-of-stroke shock with the AirTAC MFCJ32X160-20, a JIS-standard round-body mini cylinder. An external adjuster lets you shorten the nominal 160 mm extend stroke by up to 20 mm on site, while a needle variable air cushion at both ends soaks up high-speed impact. The riveted SUS304 stainless barrel and aluminium covers yield a body that is shorter than an ISO 6432 cylinder for the same bore and stroke, resisting mild washdown.
Driven by a 12 mm rod through a 1/4" port, this double-acting 32 mm bore delivers 402.2 N push and 345.6 N pull at 0.5 MPa. That translates to a safe working load of about 241 N, or roughly 20.5 kg of vertical lift with a 2:1 margin. Note this SKU lacks the -S magnet, so it cannot take CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensors.

Where the Airtac MFCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MFCJ32X160-20 Is Used
High-Speed Forming Press
Dial in the 140-160 mm extend stroke and tune the needle cushion to absorb shock when pushing a 240 N workpiece at 800 mm/s.
Package Divert Arm
Trim the extend end by 20 mm on site to perfect the divert angle, letting the air cushion quietly stop the 20 kg load at high speed.
Pallet Stop Gate
Set the exact gate drop position and use the variable cushion to prevent bounce when arresting pallets on a gravity roller line.
Is the Airtac MFCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MFCJ32X160-20 the Right Cylinder?
Weigh the 32 mm bore against the larger MFCJ40, which pushes 628.3 N at 0.5 MPa compared to the 402.2 N here, or the smaller MFCJ25 at 245.3 N. Choose this 32 mm bore when your changeover needs both a 20 mm extend-trim window and high-speed cushioning. It is ideal for trial fits where the exact end position and deceleration must be dialed in separately.
Mount via LB foot, FA flange or TC trunnion (there is no SDB or back-cover option). Because this is a non-magnet SKU, position sensing is unavailable. The air cushion only decelerates the piston near the ends; it is not a brake. If the load must hold position on air loss, add an external rod lock or pilot check valve.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT / G / NPT)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Back cover (CA/U/CM) & mount (LB/FA/SDB/TC)
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Do not dismantle the riveted front/back covers.
- check Use correct back cover (CA/U/CM) & mount (LB/FA/SDB/TC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac MFCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MFCJ32X160-20 FAQ
This 32 mm bore double-acting cylinder uses a 1/4" port and a 12 mm rod. It pushes 402.2 N and pulls 345.6 N at 0.5 MPa, or 563 N push and 483.8 N pull at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical maximum force is 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
This specific SKU lacks the -S magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches. The external adjuster shortens the extend stroke by up to 20 mm on site; it sets the end position and is not a mid-stroke lock.
