The AirTAC Airtac MFJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MFJ40X225-20 is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 225mm 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.
Dial in your extend end position on site with the AirTAC MFJ40X225-20, a JIS-standard round-body mini cylinder featuring a 20mm adjustable window. The external adjuster shortens the 225mm extend stroke down to 205mm without requiring external stops, making it highly useful for trial fits and line changeovers. Retract travel remains full length.
Built with a SUS304 stainless steel barrel and riveted aluminium covers, this double-acting actuator delivers 628.3N of push force at 0.5MPa. Its riveted construction is shorter than an ISO 6432 cylinder for the same bore and stroke, saving valuable mounting length while resisting mild washdown. With a safe working load around 377N, it lifts about 32kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. Air ports are 1/4".

| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 628 N | 528 N |
| 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.
Fine-tune the 205-225mm extend position during product format changes, using the adjuster to set new end stops without swapping the cylinder.
Test different extend endpoints on the fly during machine development, leveraging the 628.3N push force to trial heavy components safely.
Adjust the stroke externally to accommodate varying part sizes on the line, relying on the 1/4" port and 40mm bore for consistent power.
When sizing between the two available bores, the MFJ40 provides 628.3N push at 0.5MPa, whereas the MFJ32 offers 402.2N. Choose this 40mm bore when moving heavier fixtures. The 20mm adjuster is perfect for commissioning rigs where the exact end position is not yet final. Mount using LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion (no SDB). Because this SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot accept CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. Note that the fixed TPU bumper decelerates the stroke end but does not lock; for holding a load on air loss, install an external rod lock or pilot check valve.
Quick checklist
This 40mm bore cylinder uses a 1/4" air port and a 16mm rod with an M14x1.5 male thread. It generates 628.3N push and 527.8N pull at 0.5MPa, 879.6N push and 738.9N pull at 0.7MPa, with a theoretical maximum of 128.1kgf at 1.0MPa.
The external adjuster shortens the extend stroke by up to 20mm on site, giving a usable range of 205-225mm. The cylinder uses fixed TPU bumper pads to decelerate the stroke end. This SKU has no -S magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors.
