The AirTAC Airtac MFCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MFCJ32X175-20S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke + cushion JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 175mm 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.
Trim the extend stroke by up to 20 mm on-site with the AirTAC MFCJ32X175-20S, setting a usable 155-175 mm range while retract stays full. This double-acting JIS-standard round-body mini cylinder pairs that external adjuster with a needle variable air cushion at both ends to soak up high-speed shock. The SUS304 stainless barrel and riveted aluminium covers resist mild corrosion and washdowns, and the body is shorter than an ISO 6432 cylinder for the same 32 mm bore and 175 mm stroke, saving mounting length.
Delivering 402.2 N push and 345.6 N pull at 0.5 MPa (563 N / 483.8 N at 0.7 MPa), this unit handles a safe working load of about 241 N or lifts roughly 20.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. The 1/4" port and Ø12 mm rod with M10x1.25 thread match the bore. Because this SKU carries the -S magnet, it is ready for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches to confirm end positions.

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 the extend stroke from 155 to 175 mm on automated machining fixtures to seat parts precisely against stops without machining new spacers.
Use the variable air cushion to decelerate the 402.2 N push force smoothly at the end of each cycle, preventing impact damage when routing heavier cartons.
Lift loads up to about 20.5 kg with a 2:1 safety margin, tweaking the 20 mm window to hit exact upper transfer heights during conveyor changeovers.
Size by force: the 32 mm bore gives 402.2 N push at 0.5 MPa, sitting between the 245.3 N of an MFCJ25 and the 628.3 N of an MFCJ40. Choose this adjustable-stroke, cushioned build when you need to dial in a precise 155-175 mm extend during high-speed changeovers or shock-sensitive trial fits. The variable air cushion only decelerates the piston near stroke end; 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. Mount via LB foot, FA flange or TC trunnion (no SDB or back-cover here), and use the -S magnet with CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors.
Quick checklist
This 32 mm bore cylinder uses a 1/4" port and a 12 mm rod with an M10x1.25 male thread. It generates 402.2 N push and 345.6 N pull at 0.5 MPa, or 563 N push and 483.8 N pull at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical max of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa. Operating speed is 30-800 mm/s.
The external adjuster shortens the extend stroke by up to 20 mm, giving a 155-175 mm usable range, while the retract remains full. The needle variable air cushion at both ends decelerates the piston near stroke end for smooth stops. The -S suffix means it has a built-in magnet for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensors.
