The AirTAC MKJ Adjustable Cylinder MKJ25X40-40 is a genuine MK multi-mount cylinder (double rod, adjustable stroke), 25 mm bore. Its compact square body fixes from six directions and mounts side by side to save space. It delivers about 245.4 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. A bumper cushions the impact. As an MK unit a fixed rod stops the piston rod rotating.
The MKJ25X40-40 is an AirTAC multi-mount cylinder with an adjustable stroke: a compact square-bodied, no-rotating cylinder that can be fixed from six directions - front, back, left, right, top and bottom - and mounted side by side to save space. Magnetic-switch slots run around the body for position sensing, and the fixed rod and plate keep the rod from turning.
This is a genuine AirTAC part. The MK family is the no-rotating version of the multi-mount range (the MD family is the standard type), so this model suits jobs where the rod must not rotate. This SKU has no trailing S, so it is supplied without a magnet. Dimensions and sizing details vary with the stroke, so confirm them from the datasheet on request.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC MD/MK multi-mount data. The front cover and piston are short, so avoid an over-long stroke. An optional high-temperature seal material extends the range to 0 to 150 C. Overall dimensions vary per stroke and allowable side-load is published as curves — ask us and we confirm from the datasheet.
Choose the 25 mm bore when your clamp or push job needs roughly 245.4 N of theoretical thrust at 0.5 MPa. Pick MK when the rod must not turn, or MD when rotation does not matter. This is the adjustable-stroke version, so the stroke can be set and then adjusted; confirm the exact adjustment range from the datasheet. Keep the stroke within the bore 25 table (up to 60 mm for double acting) - the short cover means an over-long stroke can compromise guidance. Add the trailing S if you need a magnet, and choose PT (blank) or G thread; bore 25 uses M5x0.8 ports. Route side-load questions to us.
Use as a stopper or gate on a conveyor line, fixing the compact body from the top or side of the frame and mounting several units side by side along the line.
Place caps, plugs or connectors where the part must stay square: the fixed rod and plate prevent rod rotation during pick-and-place moves.
MKJ marks the no-rotating, adjustable-stroke version of the multi-mount cylinder: 25 is the bore in mm, 40 is the stroke in mm, and the final 40 is the adjustable-stroke entry. This SKU has no trailing S, so it is supplied without a magnet, and the blank thread position means PT ports (M5x0.8 on bore 25).
The square body can be fixed from six directions - front, back, left, right, top and bottom - and units mount side by side to save space. Overall dimensions and side-load limits depend on the stroke, so confirm them from the datasheet.
