The AirTAC Airtac MFJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MFJ40X150-20S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 150mm 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 end by up to 20 mm on site, this double-acting JIS-standard round-body mini cylinder lets you set a precise 130-150 mm working stroke without buying a new unit. The SUS304 stainless barrel and riveted aluminium covers yield a body that is shorter than an ISO 6432 cylinder for the same 40 mm bore, saving valuable mounting length while resisting mild washdown.
Delivering 628.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, it carries a safe working load of roughly 377 N or lifts about 32 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. The -S suffix adds a piston magnet for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches, and the 1/4" port feeds a 16 mm rod with an M14x1.5 male thread.

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 extend position within the 20 mm window during format changes, using the 628.3 N push force to shift heavy tooling blocks without remachining hard stops.
Perfect for prototype assembly lines where the exact 130-150 mm extend point is unknown, letting operators fine-tune the stroke on the fly before finalizing the layout.
Acts as an adjustable end stop for mid-process checking, pushing parts with up to 377 N of safe working load while the SUS304 barrel handles mild splash coolant.
When sizing between the two bores, the MFJ32 provides 402.2 N of push at 0.5 MPa, whereas this MFJ40 steps up to 628.3 N, making the 40 mm bore the right pick when your trial-fit rig or changeover station needs to shift heavier fixtures. The external adjuster is ideal for commissioning lines where the exact end position is not yet final, as you can shorten the extend stroke within the 20 mm window instead of machining external stops.
Mounting options include LB foot, FA flange, and TC trunnion brackets, with no SDB or back-cover option on this adjustable build. Remember that the fixed TPU bumper pads only decelerate the stroke end; the cylinder will drift and drop its load on air loss, so fit an external rod lock or pilot check valve if you need to hold position.
Quick checklist
This 40 mm bore cylinder features a 1/4" port, a 16 mm rod, and an M14x1.5 male 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 20 mm on site, giving a usable 130-150 mm extend, while the retract remains full. The -S suffix means a piston magnet is built in for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors, and fixed TPU bumper pads decelerate the stroke ends.
