The AirTAC Airtac MFCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MFCJ40X100-40 is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke + cushion JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 100mm 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.
Dial in exact end positions and absorb high-speed shock with the AirTAC MFCJ40X100-40, a JIS-standard round-body mini cylinder built with a SUS304 stainless barrel and riveted aluminium covers. An external adjuster lets you shorten the extend stroke by up to 40 mm on site, giving a usable 60-100 mm extension window, while needle-set variable air cushions at both ends soak up end-of-stroke impact.
Delivering 628.3 N push and 527.8 N pull at 0.5 MPa through a 1/4" port, this double-acting 40 mm bore unit yields a safe working load of about 377 N, lifting roughly 32 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. Its compact riveted body is shorter than an ISO 6432 cylinder for the same stroke, saving mounting length. Note this SKU lacks the -S magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors.

| 0.7 MPa | 880 N | 739 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 128 kgf | |
Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a safety 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.
Tune the 60-100 mm extend stroke on site to match varying box sizes, using the variable air cushion to quietly stop the 32 kg load at high speed.
Leverage the 628.3 N push force for seating light components, dialing in the exact 40 mm adjustment window for precise trial fits without shock damage.
Act as an adjustable end stop on conveyors; the SUS304 barrel resists mild washdown while the needle cushion absorbs repeated high-speed impacts.
Choose the MFCJ40 over the MFCJ32 when you need serious thrust: the 40 mm bore pushes 628.3 N at 0.5 MPa compared to 402.2 N for the 32 mm version. The 40 mm adjustable window is ideal for high-speed changeovers or shock-sensitive trial fits where both the exact extend end and the deceleration rate need field tuning. Mount via LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion (no SDB). Remember the cushion only decelerates near stroke end; it is not a lock. For position holding on air loss, install an external rod lock or pilot check valve.
Quick checklist
This 40 mm bore cylinder features a 1/4" port and a 16 mm rod. It generates 628.3 N push and 527.8 N pull at 0.5 MPa, or 879.6 N push and 738.9 N pull at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical maximum force is 128.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
No, this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet option, so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. The external adjuster shortens the extend stroke by up to 40 mm, and the variable air cushion decelerates the piston near stroke end, but neither acts as a mid-stroke lock.
