The AirTAC MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X150-50 is a genuine double acting, double rod, adjustable stroke + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø16mm bore and 150mm 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 on site without swapping hardware using the AirTAC MICJ16X150-50. This double-acting round-body stainless steel mini cylinder features an external screw that shortens the extend stroke by up to 50 mm, giving a usable forward range of 100-150 mm. Tunable air cushions at both ends soak up high-speed shock so you can set the exact position and control the impact simultaneously.
Built with a stainless barrel and piston rod for mild washdown resistance, it conforms to the ISO 6432 mounting interface for straightforward bracket drops. It uses an M5×0.8 port and an M6x1.0 male rod thread. Note this SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or 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.
| 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).

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.
Deflect small cartons on a packaging line, using the adjustable air cushion to softly stop the 150 mm stroke at high cycle speeds without slamming.
Push lightweight molded parts out of a machining area, tuning the external stop screw to match varying product lengths on the fly.
When sizing this 16 mm bore, dropping to a smaller standard cushioned cylinder is not an option, but the MIJ bumper-style series covers lighter duties. The adjustable stop screw and dual air cushions shine in fast set-position moves where you need repeatable end-of-stroke deceleration without mechanical slamming.
This cylinder does not hold position on air loss, as the piston drifts without pressure, and the cushion only decelerates near the end of travel rather than acting as a mid-stroke lock. For suspended loads, pair it with an external rod lock or pilot check valve. Mounting options include LB foot, FA flange, and TC trunnion, plus CA, U, R, or CM back covers, but the SDB pivot block is not available on this adjustable variant.
Quick checklist
It uses an M5×0.8 air port and an M6x1.0 male rod thread.
An external screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 50 mm on site, while needle-adjustable air cushions at both ends absorb high-speed shock. This specific SKU has no magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors; you would need the -S variant for that.
