The AirTAC Airtac MFJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MFJ25X40-40S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm bore and 40mm 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 stroke by up to 40 mm on site, this double-acting JIS-standard round-body mini cylinder eliminates the need to buy a new unit or add external stops when the exact end position is not final. The riveted aluminium covers and SUS304 stainless steel barrel yield a shorter overall length than an ISO 6432 cylinder for the same 25 mm bore and 40 mm stroke, resisting mild corrosion and washdowns. A 1/8" port and Ø10 mm rod with an M10x1.25 male thread handle a 245.3 N push force at 0.5 MPa.
Because this SKU includes the -S magnet, it is ready for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG position switches. The adjuster fine-tunes the extend end point without acting as a mid-stroke lock, while fixed TPU bumper pads decelerate the piston at the stroke extremes. For vertical lifting, the 245.3 N output at 0.5 MPa provides a safe working load of roughly 147 N, lifting about 12.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 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 extend position during line changeovers using the 40 mm adjuster, delivering 245.3 N of push force to seat parts without adding external stops.
Fine-tune the end point on trial-fit assemblies where the final stroke length is unknown, leveraging the 12.5 kg vertical lift capacity for component testing.
Adjust the extend stroke on-site to accommodate different product sizes, using the built-in magnet and CMSG sensors to confirm the modified end position.
When sizing this series, compare the real thrust outputs: the MFJ20 delivers 157 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this MFJ25 provides 245.3 N, and the larger MFJ32 offers 402.2 N. Choose the 25 mm bore when your changeover station or trial-fit rig needs moderate force within a compact footprint. The 40 mm adjustable window is particularly useful for prototyping lines where the final extend position is unknown, letting you dial in the exact stop without swapping hardware.
Mounting options include LB foot, FA flange and TC trunnion (no SDB or back-cover mount). Remember that the fixed TPU bumpers only decelerate the stroke end; the cylinder does not hold position on air loss. If the load must be prevented from drifting, install an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve.
Quick checklist
This 25 mm bore cylinder uses a 1/8" port and a Ø10 mm rod. It generates a push force of 245.3 N and a pull force of 206.1 N at 0.5 MPa. At 0.7 MPa, the push force is 343.4 N and the pull is 288.5 N. The theoretical maximum force is 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The external adjuster shortens the extend stroke by up to 40 mm on site, but it only sets the end position and does not act as a mid-stroke lock. Fixed TPU bumper pads decelerate the piston at the extremes. The -S suffix means it has a built-in piston magnet for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches.
