The AirTAC Airtac MFJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MFJ40X65-20S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke JIS-standard round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 65mm 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, the AirTAC MFJ40X65-20S lets you dial in the exact 45 to 65 mm forward position without buying a new unit or adding external stops. This JIS-standard round-body mini cylinder pairs a SUS304 stainless steel barrel with riveted aluminium covers, yielding a body that is physically shorter than an ISO 6432 cylinder of the same bore and stroke to save mounting length.
Driven by filtered air through a 1/4" port, the 40 mm bore delivers 628.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. With a built-in magnet enabled by the -S suffix, it supports CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG switches for position sensing. The fixed TPU bumper pads absorb end-of-stroke impact across the 30 to 800 mm/s speed range, and the safe working load sits around 377 N, lifting roughly 32 kg vertically with a 2:1 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 45 to 65 mm extend position during product format changes, using the 20 mm adjuster to set new end stops without swapping hardware.
Leverage the 628.3 N push force to seat test components, dialing the stroke back incrementally to find the exact contact depth.
Push 32 kg loads vertically with a 2:1 safety margin, adjusting the extend end on the fly to accommodate different material heights.
When sizing these adjustable cylinders, compare the real thrust: this MFJ40 pushes 628.3 N at 0.5 MPa, whereas the smaller MFJ32 provides 402.2 N. Choose the 40 mm bore when moving heavier jigs or overcoming high friction, and use the external adjuster to shorten the extend stroke by up to 20 mm for trial fits or line changeovers where the final position is not yet final.
Mounting options include LB foot, FA flange, and TC trunnion (no SDB or back-cover code). Because the -S magnet is present, you can fit CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors directly. Remember that the bumper only decelerates the stroke end; the piston drifts on air loss, so install an external rod lock or pilot check valve if you need to hold a suspended load.
Quick checklist
This 40 mm bore cylinder features a 1/4" air port and an M14x1.5 male rod 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 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 45 to 65 mm forward range while retract remains full. The -S suffix means a piston magnet is built in for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches; fixed TPU bumpers decelerate the stroke end.
