About the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X150-10S
Dial in your forward stop on-site with the AirTAC MICJ16X150-10S, a stainless-steel round-body mini cylinder that shortens the extend end by up to 10 mm via an external screw. It pairs this settable position with a needle-adjustable air cushion at both ends to soak up high-speed shock, giving you simultaneous position control and impact management. The built-in piston magnet (-S) directly supports CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG switches for exact end-of-stroke detection.
The stainless barrel and rod resist mild corrosion and washdown environments. It operates at speeds from 30-800 mm/s and uses an M5×0.8 port.

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) |
|---|---|

| 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 MICJ16X150-10S Is Used
Light-Part Ejection
Ejects small plastic parts at high speed, using the adjustable air cushion to absorb shock while the 10 mm extend stop dials in the exact drop distance without reprogramming.
Sensor Positioning
Pushes a testing probe against delicate electronics, using the needle cushion to soften the impact and the external screw to fine-tune the 150 mm extend reach.
Is the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X150-10S the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 16 mm bore, stepping down is not an option for a cushioned MICJ setup, as smaller bores lack the adjustable air cushion feature entirely. If you need more force, the next size up is the Ø20 bore, which raises the 0.5 MPa push force from 100.5 N to 157 N. This MICJ16X150-10S variant shines in fast, settable-position moves where you need to trim the 150 mm extend stroke down by 10 mm without swapping hardware. Mount using LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion brackets; note that the SDB pivot-block is not offered on adjustable-stroke models. Because it lacks an SDB block, ensure your bracket choice accommodates the external stop nut.
Remember that the stop screw sets the end position but is not a mid-stroke lock. A plain cylinder does not hold its load on air loss, as the piston will drift and the air cushion only decelerates near the stroke end. If your application requires a held load, integrate an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve. The -S magnet enables CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors, so you can easily confirm the adjusted forward position.
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 MICJ16X150-10S FAQ
The theoretical maximum force is 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
An external screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 10 mm on-site, while a needle valve adjusts the air cushion at both ends to decelerate the piston near stroke ends. The -S magnet supports CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. The cylinder does not hold load on air loss; use an external rod lock for that.
