About the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X100-20
Dial in the exact forward stop on-site with the AirTAC MICJ16X100-20, a stainless-steel round-body mini cylinder featuring an external screw that shortens the extend stroke by up to 20 mm (yielding an 80-100 mm usable forward position). The adjustable air cushion at both ends soaks up high-speed shock, letting you set the precise end position while controlling impact. It conforms to the ISO 6432 mounting interface for straightforward bracket integration.
Note this SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot host CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors; choose the -S variant if you need position detection.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC MI/MIC (ISO 6432) datasheet. Barrel & rod: stainless steel (round-body, riveted construction). Thread options: PT (blank) / G.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø16mm)
| Pressure | Force (both ways) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 86 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 121 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 18 kgf |
MIJ / MICJ are double-rod: the rear rod that carries the stroke adjuster exits the rear cover, so both piston faces lose rod area. The rod-side (annular) area is used for both directions (conservative).

Where the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X100-20 Is Used
Micro-Clamp Actuation
Provides a reliable 60 N working load to secure small aluminium parts during machining, using the 20 mm extend trim to dial in the exact clamp depth without crashing the fixture.
Light-Diverter Gate
Pushes lightweight cardboard cartons on a packaging line; the adjustable air cushion absorbs the high-speed impact of the 100 mm stroke, preventing gate bounce.
Lab Sample Ejector
Ejects 5 kg test tube racks from a testing station, relying on the stainless-steel construction to resist mild washdown corrosion in laboratory environments.
Is the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X100-20 the Right Cylinder?
For lighter duties, the MIJ bumper-style line is the next step down, as there is no smaller cushioned MICJ bore. If your application requires more force, stepping up to the Ø20 MICJ raises the 0.5 MPa push output to 157 N. The Ø16 shines in fast, settable-position tasks where the 20 mm extend trim and needle-controlled cushions prevent end-of-stroke banging. Remember that the stop screw sets the end position but does not act as a mid-stroke lock; the piston will drift on air loss, so fit an external rod lock or pilot check valve for held loads. Mounting options include LB, FA, and TC (SDB is unavailable), and you must select the -S version to use sensors.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT / G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Back cover (CA/U/R/CM) & mount (LB/FA/SDB/TC)
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Do not dismantle the riveted front/back covers.
- check Use correct back cover (CA/U/R/CM) & mount (LB/FA/SDB/TC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X100-20 FAQ
At 0.7 MPa, push increases to 140.7 N and pull to 120.9 N. The theoretical maximum force is 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
An external stop screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 20 mm, allowing you to set the forward end position without swapping cylinders. A needle-adjustable air cushion at both ends decelerates the piston near stroke ends to absorb high-speed shock. This SKU has no magnet, so it cannot accept position sensors.
