The AirTAC Airtac MFJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MFJ40X25-10 is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 25mm 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 10 mm on site, this adjustable double-acting mini cylinder lets you dial in the exact end position without buying a new unit or adding external stops. The usable extend range is 15-25 mm, while retract remains full, making it ideal for trial fits and line changeovers where the final position is not yet locked in.
Built as a JIS-standard round-body unit with a SUS304 stainless barrel and riveted aluminium covers, the body is shorter than an ISO 6432 cylinder for the same bore and stroke, saving valuable mounting length. The 40 mm bore delivers 628.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, yielding a safe working load of roughly 377 N or a vertical lift of about 32 kg with a 2:1 margin. It uses a 1/4" port, a 16 mm rod, and fixed TPU bumper pads for end deceleration.

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 15-25 mm extend position during product format changes, using the 628.3 N push force to seat medium-weight fixtures without adding external mechanical stops.
Dial in the exact end-of-stroke contact point on prototype assemblies, leveraging the 10 mm adjustment window to test multiple positions before finalizing the layout.
Serve as an adjustable hard stop for 40 mm bore tooling, providing 527.8 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa to retract the stop cleanly when the cycle finishes.
When sizing these cylinders, compare the real thrust figures: this MFJ40 bore pushes 628.3 N and pulls 527.8 N at 0.5 MPa, whereas the smaller MFJ32 bore delivers 402.2 N of push force at the same pressure. Choose the 40 mm bore when your application demands lifting or moving roughly 32 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin, and step down to the 32 mm bore for lighter loads. Both options feature the external adjuster that shortens the extend stroke, which is highly useful during commissioning or changeovers where the exact stroke is unknown.
Keep in mind that a plain cylinder does not hold its load on air loss; the piston drifts, and the fixed TPU bumpers only decelerate the stroke end rather than acting as a lock. For a held load, you must add an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve. Mounting options include LB foot, FA flange, and TC trunnion (with no SDB or back-cover available). Because this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors; you must select the -S variant for position sensing.
Quick checklist
The 40 mm bore uses a 1/4" port and a 16 mm rod with an M14x1.5 male thread. It delivers 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 max of 128.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The fixed TPU bumpers allow speeds of 30-800 mm/s.
The external adjuster shortens the extend stroke by up to 10 mm on site, giving a usable extend range of 15-25 mm; it does not add stroke beyond the base and is not a mid-stroke lock. The cylinder drifts on air loss, so use an external rod lock for holding. This SKU has no -S magnet and cannot take CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors.
