The AirTAC Airtac MFJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MFJ40X150-40S 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 40 mm on site, the MFJ40X150-40S lets you dial in the exact 110 to 150 mm forward position without buying a new cylinder or adding external stops. This JIS-standard round-body mini cylinder uses a SUS304 stainless barrel and riveted aluminium covers, delivering a body that is shorter than an ISO 6432 unit for the same 40 mm bore and 150 mm stroke.
The 1/4 inch port and Ø16 mm rod with an M14x1.5 male thread drive a robust 628.3 N push force at 0.5 MPa. Because the -S suffix includes a piston magnet, you can mount CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches for position sensing. Fixed TPU bumper pads absorb end impacts, and the SUS304 construction resists mild washdown corrosion.

| 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.
Fine-tune the 110 to 150 mm extend position during product format changes, using the 40 mm adjuster to set new end stops without swapping hardware.
Leverage the 628.3 N push force to press components while dialing in the exact forward position during prototype assembly testing.
Adjust the extend endpoint on the fly for operations requiring slight positional shifts, relying on the SUS304 body for mild washdown resistance.
Choosing between the two MFJ bores comes down to force: this 40 mm bore pushes 628.3 N and pulls 527.8 N at 0.5 MPa, whereas the 32 mm bore manages 402.2 N of push. For a safe working load of roughly 377 N or a vertical lift of about 32 kg with a 2:1 margin, the 40 mm bore is the correct choice. The 40 mm adjuster window is ideal for trial fits and line changeovers where the exact extend position is not yet final.
Mounting options include LB foot, FA flange and TC trunnion, with no SDB or back-cover variant available. Remember that the external adjuster only sets the extend end point; it does not lock the piston mid-stroke. If you need to hold a load on air loss, add an external rod lock or pilot check valve, as the bumper pads only decelerate the stroke end.
Quick checklist
This 40 mm bore cylinder features a 1/4 inch port and delivers a push force of 628.3 N and a pull force of 527.8 N at 0.5 MPa. At 0.7 MPa, push is 879.6 N and pull is 738.9 N. The theoretical maximum force is 128.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The external adjuster shortens the extend stroke by up to 40 mm on site, giving a usable extend range of 110 to 150 mm, while retract remains full. The -S suffix means a piston magnet is built in for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensors. Fixed TPU bumper pads decelerate the stroke end, but the adjuster is not a mid-stroke lock.
