The AirTAC Airtac MFCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MFCJ40X225-10 is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke + cushion JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 225mm 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.
Tune both the extend end-point and end-of-stroke shock precisely with this 40 mm bore, 225 mm stroke adjustable cylinder. A needle variable air cushion at each end soaks up high-speed kinetic energy, while the external adjuster shortens the extend stroke by up to 10 mm on site (usable extend 215-225 mm). The riveted SUS304 stainless round body and aluminium covers yield a shorter mounting envelope than an ISO 6432 unit, resisting mild washdown.
Delivering 628.3 N push and 527.8 N pull at 0.5 MPa, this double-acting JIS mini handles robust loads. It provides a safe working load of about 377 N, lifting roughly 32 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. The 1/4" port and M14x1.5 male rod thread match the 40 mm bore class. Note this SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot take CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches.

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 in the 215-225 mm extend position and tune the needle cushion to absorb the shock of high-speed press feeding without slamming.
Use the 628.3 N push force to divert heavy packages, fine-tuning the 10 mm stroke window during line changeovers for exact routing.
Adjust the jaw extend end-point on the fly and set the variable air cushion for quiet, smooth operation even at 800 mm/s speeds.
Choose the MFCJ40 over the MFCJ32 when you need the higher 628.3 N push force at 0.5 MPa instead of the 402.2 N offered by the smaller bore. The 10 mm adjustable window is perfect for trial fits and high-speed changeovers where the exact extend position and deceleration ramp both need field tuning. Mount via LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion (no SDB). If the load must stay put on air loss, add an external rod lock or pilot check valve, as the cushion only decelerates and the piston will drift.
Quick checklist
This 40 mm bore double-acting cylinder has a 1/4" port and an M14x1.5 male rod thread. It generates 628.3 N push and 527.8 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 879.6 N push and 738.9 N pull at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical max of 128.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
This specific SKU has no -S magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches. The variable air cushion only decelerates the piston near stroke end; it is not a brake or lock. For position holding on air loss, install an external rod lock or pilot check valve.
