The AirTAC Airtac MFJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MFJ25X250-40S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 250mm stroke, 1/8" 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.
Trimming the extend end by up to 40 mm on site, this double-acting JIS-standard round-body mini cylinder lets you dial in a 210 to 250 mm forward stroke without buying a new unit. The SUS304 stainless barrel and riveted aluminium covers form a compact body that is physically shorter than an ISO 6432 cylinder for the same 25 mm bore and 250 mm stroke, saving valuable mounting length while resisting mild washdown. A built-in piston magnet (-S) is included for position sensing.
Operating at 0.5 MPa, it delivers 245.3 N of push force and 206.1 N of pull. That translates to a safe working load of about 147 N, or lifting roughly 12.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. The 1/8" port and M10x1.25 male rod thread keep the pneumatic and mechanical integration straightforward. Fixed TPU bumper pads absorb end-of-stroke impacts across the 30-800 mm/s speed range.

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 210-250 mm extend position during product format changes without machining new hard stops, using the 40 mm external adjuster to hit the exact ejection point.
Safely test end-of-arm tooling positions under a 147 N safe working load, tweaking the forward stroke on the fly until the kinematics are proven.
Provide adjustable mechanical end-stops for a 12.5 kg vertical lift fixture, relying on the SUS304 barrel for mild corrosion resistance in humid production areas.
Choosing between bores comes down to your force window: the 20 mm bore gives 157 N of push at 0.5 MPa, this 25 mm bore provides 245.3 N, and the 32 mm bore jumps to 402.2 N. Pick the 25 mm when you need moderate push force in a tight footprint. The 40 mm adjustable window is perfect for trial fits and line changeovers where the exact end position is not yet final. Mounting options include LB foot, FA flange, and TC trunnion (no SDB). Remember that a plain cylinder drifts on air loss; the bumper only decelerates the stroke end and does not lock the load, so specify an external rod lock or pilot check valve if you need to hold position.
Quick checklist
This 25 mm bore cylinder has a 1/8" port and an M10x1.25 male rod thread. At 0.5 MPa it pushes with 245.3 N and pulls with 206.1 N. At 0.7 MPa the push is 343.4 N and pull is 288.5 N. The theoretical maximum force is 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The base stroke is 250 mm, and the external adjuster can shorten the extend stroke by up to 40 mm.
The external adjuster mechanically shortens the extend end position by up to 40 mm on site, giving a usable forward range of 210-250 mm; the retract stroke remains full. It acts only as an end-stop and does not lock the load mid-stroke. The -S suffix means a piston magnet is built in, allowing you to mount CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG reed or electronic sensors directly for position detection.
