About the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X160-10
Dial in a precise forward stop on site with the AirTAC MICJ16X160-10, a stainless-steel round-body mini cylinder that shortens the extend stroke by up to 10 mm via an external screw. The M5×0.8 port and Ø16 mm bore conform to the ISO 6432 mounting interface, dropping directly into standard mini brackets.
It operates at speeds of 30-800 mm/s. Note that this specific SKU lacks a magnet and cannot host CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors; order the -S variant if position sensing is required.

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 MICJ16X160-10 Is Used
Carton Flap Tucking
Tuned needle cushions absorb the high-speed impact of the 160 mm extend when folding light cardboard flaps, preventing dents on the packaging line.
Lab Sample Ejection
Stainless build resists mild washdown in lab environments while pushing 5.1 kg samples vertically out of a testing fixture with a dialed-in forward stop.
Is the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X160-10 the Right Cylinder?
The 10 mm extend adjuster and dual air cushions are ideal for fast, repeatable set-position moves where you need to tune the forward impact without swapping hardware.
Mount using LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion brackets, plus CA, U, R, or CM back covers (the SDB pivot block is not offered on this adjustable variant). Remember that the stop screw sets the end position but does not function as a mid-stroke lock; the piston will drift on air loss, so add an external rod lock or pilot check valve if you need 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 MICJ16X160-10 FAQ
This Ø16 mm bore cylinder uses an M5×0.8 air port. At 0.7 MPa, push increases to 140.7 N and pull to 120.9 N. The theoretical maximum force is 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
An external screw shortens the extend end position by up to 10 mm, while needle valves adjust the air cushions at both ends to decelerate the piston near stroke ends. The cushions only reduce shock and do not lock the piston; the cylinder cannot hold a load on air loss. This SKU has no magnet and cannot take sensors.
