About the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X150-40S
Trim the forward stop by up to 40 mm on site without swapping cylinders using this AirTAC MICJ16X150-40S adjustable-extend mini cylinder. The external screw sets the extend end position anywhere from 110 to 150 mm, while a needle-set adjustable air cushion at both ends soaks up high-speed shock. It is a double-acting, stainless-steel round-body unit with a 16 mm bore, a 6 mm rod, and an M5×0.8 port.
The integrated piston magnet (-S) supports CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG sensors for position detection. The stainless barrel and rod resist mild corrosion and washdown environments.

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 MICJ16X150-40S Is Used
Light Clamping
Securely hold small aluminum or plastic components during machining using the 5.1 kg vertical lift capacity, while the adjustable cushion prevents bounce at high speeds.
Sorter Diverter
Rapidly deflect lightweight packages on a conveyor, tuning the extend end position on the fly and using the -S magnet to trigger the next stage via a DMSG sensor.
Is the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X150-40S the Right Cylinder?
For lighter tasks, the MIJ bumper-only series lacks this air cushion, making the MICJ the better choice for high-speed moves. If you need more force, stepping up to the Ø20 bore raises push force to 157 N at 0.5 MPa. Here, the 40 mm extend adjuster lets you dial in the exact forward stop for repetitive positioning, and the cushion prevents end-of-stroke banging. Choose LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion mounts, as the SDB pivot-block is not available on this adjustable variant. The -S magnet enables CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches for precise end-of-stroke confirmation. Note that the stop 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 to hold a suspended load.
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 MICJ16X150-40S FAQ
An external screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 40 mm (retract remains full), and a needle valve adjusts the air cushion at both ends to decelerate the piston before impact. The cushion only decelerates and does not lock the piston; the cylinder drifts on air loss, so use an external rod lock for holding suspended loads.
