The AirTAC Airtac MFJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MFJ40X175-100S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 175mm 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 100 mm on site, the AirTAC MFJ40X175-100S lets you dial in the exact end position without buying a new cylinder or adding external stops. This JIS-standard round-body mini cylinder features a SUS304 stainless steel barrel and riveted aluminium covers, giving you a body that is physically shorter than an ISO 6432 unit for the same 40 mm bore and 175 mm stroke.
Driven by a 16 mm rod through a 1/4" port, this double-acting actuator delivers 628.3 N of push force 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 safety margin. Because this SKU includes the -S magnet, it is fully ready for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position sensing.

| 0.7 MPa | 880 N | 739 N |
| 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 extend position up to 100 mm during product changeovers, using the 628.3 N push force to shift heavy tooling plates without swapping cylinders.
Perfect for prototype assembly rigs where the exact 175 mm extend length is unknown, letting you fine-tune the stop safely within the 32 kg vertical lift capacity.
Acts as an adjustable hard stop for machining fixtures, shortening the extend stroke on the fly while the -S magnet confirms end position via DMSG sensors.
When sizing these adjustable actuators, compare the two available bores directly: this MFJ40 pushes with 628.3 N at 0.5 MPa, while the smaller MFJ32 provides 402.2 N. Choose the 40 mm bore when moving heavier fixtures, and rely on the 100 mm adjustment window to perfect the extend position during line changeovers or trial fits where the exact stroke is not yet final.
Mounting options include LB foot, FA flange, and TC trunnion (there is no SDB or back-cover option on this build). Remember that the fixed TPU bumper pads only decelerate the stroke end; they do not lock the load. If you need to hold position against air loss, install an external rod lock or pilot check valve.
Quick checklist
This 40 mm bore cylinder uses a 1/4" port and a 16 mm rod with 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.
An external adjuster shortens the extend stroke by up to 100 mm on site, giving a usable extend window of 75 to 175 mm; retract remains full. It uses fixed TPU bumper pads to decelerate the stroke end, not an adjustable air cushion. The -S magnet enables CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches.
