The AirTAC Airtac MFJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MFJ40X125-40 is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 125mm 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.
Trimming the extend stroke by up to 40 mm on site, the MFJ40X125-40 lets you dial in the exact end position between 85 and 125 mm without buying a new cylinder. This JIS-standard round-body mini cylinder features a SUS304 stainless barrel and riveted aluminium covers, offering a shorter mounting envelope than an ISO 6432 unit of the same bore.
Driven by a 16 mm rod through a 1/4" port, the 40 mm bore delivers 628.3 N push and 527.8 N pull at 0.5 MPa. That translates to a safe working load of roughly 377 N, or lifting about 32 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. Fixed TPU bumpers absorb end impacts, and because this SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot host CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensors.

| 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 85 to 125 mm extend position during product changeovers, using the 40 mm window to fine-tune the stop without swapping hardware.
Leverage the 628.3 N push force to test actuation distances on new assemblies, adjusting the stroke on the fly as the design evolves.
Set precise end positions for 40 mm bore tooling, relying on the fixed TPU bumpers to absorb impact while the adjuster sets the distance.
Choosing between the two bores comes down to force: the MFJ32 pushes 402.2 N at 0.5 MPa, while this MFJ40 steps up to 628.3 N. The 40 mm bore is the right pick when you need that extra thrust to move heavier fixtures. The 40 mm adjustable window is especially useful for trial fits and line changeovers where the exact extend position is not yet finalised.
Mounting options include LB foot, FA flange and TC trunnion (no SDB or back-cover code). Remember that the external adjuster only sets the extend end point—it is not a mid-stroke lock. Because a standard cylinder drifts on air loss, add an external rod lock or pilot check valve if the load must be held.
Quick checklist
This 40 mm bore cylinder has a 1/4" port and a 16 mm rod. At 0.5 MPa it pushes 628.3 N and pulls 527.8 N. At 0.7 MPa it pushes 879.6 N and pulls 738.9 N. The theoretical maximum force is 128.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
An external adjuster shortens the extend stroke by up to 40 mm, giving a usable range of 85 to 125 mm; retract remains full. This SKU has no magnet, so it cannot take CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches. Fixed TPU bumpers decelerate the ends.
