About the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X160-100
Trim the forward stop by up to 100 mm on site without swapping hardware using the AirTAC MICJ16X160-100. This 16 mm bore, double-acting stainless steel round-body mini cylinder pairs that adjustable extend stroke with a needle-set air cushion at both ends, letting you dial in the exact 60 to 160 mm forward position while soaking up high-speed impact.
Note this SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot host CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensors without switching to the -S variant. Air ports are M5×0.8.

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 MICJ16X160-100 Is Used
Adjustable Stop Gauging
Dial in the exact 60-160 mm extend position to push a 5.1 kg assembly into a test fixture, relying on the needle cushion to absorb the high-speed arrival.
Lab Dispense Head
Use the stainless 16 mm round body in mildly humid lab environments, trimming the forward stroke by up to 100 mm to meet varying vial heights without retooling.
Light Part Ejection
Eject 60 N parts off a conveyor at speed; the adjustable air cushion decelerates the 6 mm rod smoothly at stroke end to prevent marking delicate plastic components.
Is the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X160-100 the Right Cylinder?
The 100 mm extend trim and dual cushions shine in fast set-position moves, but remember the stop screw only sets the end position—it is not a mid-stroke lock. The piston will drift on air loss, so fit an external rod lock or pilot check valve to hold a suspended load. Mount via LB, FA or TC (SDB is unavailable here), and choose the -S version if you need position sensing.
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 MICJ16X160-100 FAQ
This 16 mm bore cylinder pushes 100.5 N and pulls 86.4 N at 0.5 MPa, and pushes 140.7 N and pulls 120.9 N at 0.7 MPa. Its theoretical max force is 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa, and the air port is M5×0.8.
An external screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 100 mm (retract stays full), while a needle valve adjusts the air cushion at both ends to decelerate high-speed moves. This SKU has no magnet for sensors, and because the cushion only decelerates rather than locks, you need an external rod lock to hold a load on air loss.
