The AirTAC Airtac MFCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MFCJ40X225-75 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 extend travel precisely on-site with the AirTAC MFCJ40X225-75, a JIS-standard round-body mini cylinder built with a SUS304 stainless barrel and riveted aluminium covers. An external adjuster shortens the extend stroke by up to 75 mm (usable range 150-225 mm), while a needle-set variable air cushion at both ends absorbs high-speed end-of-stroke shock. This 40 mm bore delivers 628.3 N push force at 0.5 MPa and features a 1/4" port.
For the same bore and stroke, this compact body is shorter than an ISO 6432 cylinder, saving valuable mounting length while resisting mild corrosion and washdown. It yields a safe working load of roughly 377 N, lifting about 32 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. Note this SKU lacks a magnet and cannot take a sensor; the -S variant enables CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches.

| 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.
Dial in the exact 150-225 mm clamp extension on varied part fixtures, using the variable air cushion to soften the 879.6 N @0.7 MPa impact during rapid automated changes.
Adjust the pusher stroke up to 75 mm on-site for different carton sizes while the needle cushion ensures quiet, shock-free stops at high cycling speeds.
Handle heavy pallets safely with 628.3 N of push force, fine-tuning the gate extension to match pallet depth without mechanical redesign.
When sizing, compare this MFCJ40 at 628.3 N push (@0.5 MPa) against the smaller MFCJ32 at 402.2 N. Choose the 40 mm bore when moving heavier fixtures or overcoming high friction, and use the 75 mm adjustable window for trial fits where the exact end position and end-of-stroke shock both need tuning. The variable air cushion allows smooth deceleration across the 30-800 mm/s speed range.
Mounting options include LB foot, FA flange, and TC trunnion (no SDB or back-cover). Remember the air cushion only decelerates near the end of stroke and does not hold position; if air loss occurs the piston drifts, so fit an external rod lock or pilot check valve for suspended loads. As this specific SKU has no -S magnet, position sensing is unavailable.
Quick checklist
This 40 mm bore cylinder has a 1/4" port and a 225 mm base stroke with a 75 mm adjustable extend window (150-225 mm usable). 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.
No, this specific SKU does not include a magnet and cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches; you must order the -S variant for sensing. The external adjuster sets the extend end position, and the variable air cushion only decelerates the piston near the end of travel—it is not a mid-stroke lock.
