About the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X100-50
Dial in the forward stop on-site without swapping hardware: the MICJ16X100-50 uses an external screw to trim the extend stroke by up to 50 mm, giving a usable forward range of 50-100 mm. This double-acting, round-body stainless-steel mini cylinder simultaneously pairs that settable position with a needle-adjustable air cushion at both ends to soak up high-speed shock.
Built with a corrosion-resistant stainless barrel and Ø6 mm rod, it conforms to the ISO 6432 mounting interface for straightforward bracket drops. Note this SKU lacks the -S magnet, so it cannot host CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors.

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 MICJ16X100-50 Is Used
Light-Part Ejection
Uses the 50 mm extend adjustment to dial the exact ejection reach for delicate plastic parts, relying on the dual air cushions to decelerate the 60 N working load smoothly at high speed.
Sensor Avoidance Routing
Pushes small electronic components out of a testing lane, trimming the extend stroke by up to 50 mm to avoid hitting a downstream vision sensor while stopping shock-free.
Is the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X100-50 the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 16 mm bore, dropping to a smaller MIJ bumper-only cylinder loses your air cushion, while stepping up to the Ø20 bore raises the 0.5 MPa push force to 157 N. Choose this adjustable-stroke model when you need rapid set-position moves and on-site tuning of the extend endpoint without machining new hard stops. The M5×0.8 port keeps airflow compact for the 30-800 mm/s speed range.
Remember the external screw sets the end position but is not a mid-stroke lock; the cylinder will drift on air loss, so add an external rod lock or pilot check valve for suspended loads. Mount via LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion (SDB pivot-block is unavailable here), and select the -S variant if you require position sensing.
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 MICJ16X100-50 FAQ
This 16 mm bore cylinder features an M5×0.8 port and an M6x1.0 male rod thread.
An external screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 50 mm (retract remains full), letting you set the forward endpoint on-site. The needle-adjustable air cushion at both ends decelerates the piston near stroke end to absorb shock; it is not a mid-stroke lock or brake. This non-S SKU cannot take magnetic sensors.
