Airtac MFCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MFCJ40X60-40S
The AirTAC Airtac MFCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MFCJ40X60-40S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke + cushion JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 60mm 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 MFCJ40X60-40S
Dial in exact end positions and absorb high-speed shock with the AirTAC MFCJ40X60-40S, a JIS-standard round-body mini cylinder. The external adjuster lets you shorten the extend stroke by up to 40 mm on-site, while needle variable air cushions at both ends ensure smooth deceleration. Its SUS304 stainless barrel and riveted aluminium covers resist mild washdown environments.
Delivering 628.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa through a 1/4" port, this double-acting 40 mm bore unit handles robust cycles. The -S option includes a piston magnet for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors. It yields a safe working load of roughly 377 N, lifting about 32 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin.

Where the Airtac MFCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MFCJ40X60-40S Is Used
High-Speed Platen Damping
Drives a 30 kg machining platen rapidly forward, relying on the variable air cushion to absorb end shock while the 40 mm adjuster sets the exact clamping reach.
Adjustable Transfer Pusher
Pushes varied carton sizes on a conveyor, using the 40 mm extend window to change stroke length on the fly without moving the cylinder mounts.
Vertical Lift Positioning
Lifts roughly 32 kg of packaged stock vertically, using the built-in magnet to confirm top position and the needle cushion to prevent dropping shock.
Is the Airtac MFCJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MFCJ40X60-40S the Right Cylinder?
When sizing between the two available bores, the MFCJ40 provides 628.3 N push at 0.5 MPa versus the MFCJ32 at 402.2 N. Choose this 40 mm bore when moving heavier platens at high speeds, as the variable air cushion prevents harsh end-of-stroke impacts. The 40 mm adjustable window is ideal for changeovers needing precise extend tuning.
Mount via LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion (no SDB). Note that the air cushion only decelerates the piston; it does not lock the load. If gravity drops the tooling on air loss, add an external rod lock or pilot check valve. The included -S magnet enables solid-state or reed position sensing.
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 MFCJ40X60-40S FAQ
This 40 mm bore cylinder uses a 1/4" port and a 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 maximum of 128.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The external adjuster shortens the extend stroke by up to 40 mm on-site without changing the full retract. Needle variable air cushions at both ends decelerate the piston near stroke end for quiet high-speed motion. The -S suffix means it has a built-in magnet for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors.
