The AirTAC MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X125-100S is a genuine double acting, double rod, adjustable stroke + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø16mm bore and 125mm stroke, M5×0.8 air ports and a stainless-steel barrel and rod for mildly corrosive environments. Its ISO 6432 mounting interface fits standard ISO 6432 mini-cylinder mounting interfaces.
Trim the forward stop by up to 100 mm on site without swapping hardware: this MICJ16X125-100S double-acting mini cylinder uses an external screw to shorten the extend end position from its 125 mm nominal stroke down to 25 mm, while the retract stroke remains full. An adjustable air cushion at both ends soaks up high-speed shock so you can set the position and control the impact simultaneously.
Built with a stainless-steel round barrel and piston rod, the riveted construction resists mild corrosion and washdown environments. It conforms to the ISO 6432 mounting interface for standard mini brackets and includes a built-in magnet (-S) for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensors.

| 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).

MI-family variants: MI / MIC (double acting ±cushion), MSI / MTI (single acting push / pull), MID / MICD (double rod ±cushion), MIJ / MICJ (double rod, adjustable stroke ±cushion). Back covers CA / U / R / CM. Mounting LB / FA / SDB / TC.
Tune the forward stroke on the line to act as a variable height stop for light cartons, letting the air cushion absorb the 30-800 mm/s impact.
Leverage the stainless barrel and rod for mildly corrosive test environments, dialing the extend stroke to trigger sensors at exact intervals.
If you need less force, dropping down is not an option with an adjustable cushion because the smaller bores (Ø8/10/12) use a fixed bumper rather than a needle cushion; you would need to look at the MIJ bumper series instead. If your load requires more thrust, stepping up to the Ø20 bore raises the 0.5 MPa push force to 157 N. The 100 mm extend trim window is ideal for fast set-position moves where you need to dial in a precise forward stop on the fly.
The stop screw sets the end position but is not a mid-stroke lock, and the air cushion only decelerates near the stroke end; the piston will drift on air loss, so add an external rod lock or pilot check valve for held loads. You can mount via LB foot, FA flange or TC trunnion, but the SDB pivot-block is not available on this adjustable variant. Because this SKU includes the -S magnet, you can fit CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches directly.
Quick checklist
The theoretical maximum force is 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
An external screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 100 mm (usable extend 25-125 mm); retract remains full. An adjustable air cushion at both ends decelerates the piston near the ends to absorb high-speed shock, but it is not a brake. The cylinder does not hold position on air loss and will drift, so use an external rod lock for held loads. The -S magnet allows CMSG, DMSG and EMSG sensors.
