About the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X15-10TC
Trim the forward stop by up to 10 mm on site without swapping cylinders, and let the adjustable air cushions at both ends soak up high-speed shock.
Built with a stainless barrel and rod for mild washdown resistance, it conforms to the ISO 6432 mounting interface for Ø16 bores. It operates at 30-800 mm/s on an M5×0.8 port. Note this SKU lacks the -S magnet, so it cannot host CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. The external screw sets the extend end position only; it is not a mid-stroke lock.

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 MICJ16X15-10TC Is Used
Micro-Clamp Actuation
Dial in the exact 5-15 mm extend stop to grip delicate electronic components without crushing, while the dual air cushions absorb the impact of rapid 100.5 N forward thrust.
Light-Part Ejection
Eject small molded parts at high speed and let the adjustable cushion catch the rod before it slams the back cover, preventing premature wear on your M5×0.8 ported assembly.
Film Feed Tensioning
Set a precise forward end position for packaging film guides, relying on the stainless construction to resist mild moisture during washdown cycles.
Is the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X15-10TC the Right Cylinder?
For lighter moves, the MIJ bumper-only series is the next step down, while the Ø20 MICJ boosts push force to 157 N. Choose this Ø16 model when you need a settable extend position (5-15 mm usable stroke) combined with end-of-stroke deceleration.
The TC trunnion mount fits standard ISO 6432 brackets, but the SDB pivot block is not offered on this adjustable variant. Remember that the air cushion only decelerates near the stroke end; the piston will drift on air loss. Use an external pilot check valve if you need to hold a load vertically.
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 MICJ16X15-10TC FAQ
This double-acting cylinder uses an M5×0.8 port and an M6x1.0 male rod thread. The theoretical maximum force is 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
An external stop screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 10 mm on site, while needle valves adjust the air cushions at both ends to decelerate high-speed moves. This specific SKU has no -S magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors; you would need the -S variant for position sensing.
