About the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X160-50
Trim the forward stop by up to 50 mm on site without swapping hardware: this AirTAC round-body mini cylinder pairs an external extend adjuster with a needle-set air cushion at both ends to soak up high-speed shock.
Built with a stainless-steel barrel and rod for mild washdown resistance, the unit conforms to the ISO 6432 mounting interface for straightforward bracket interchange. It is double-acting, breathes through an M5×0.8 port, and yields a usable extend range of 110-160 mm. Note that this specific SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot host CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensors without switching to the -S variant.

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 MICJ16X160-50 Is Used
Light-Part Dial-In Stop
Pushes a 5 kg electronics carrier to a forward stop, using the 50 mm adjuster to fine-tune the exact ejection distance while the dual air cushions absorb the impact.
Lab Dispenser Positioning
Moves a lab fluid nozzle across a 110-160 mm usable range, relying on the ISO 6432 mount for easy bracket swaps and the external screw to set the exact drip height.
Is the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X160-50 the Right Cylinder?
The 50 mm extend trim is ideal for fast set-position moves where you need to dial in a precise forward stop under high speed.
Mount using LB foot, FA flange or TC trunnion brackets, as the SDB pivot-block is not available on this adjustable-stroke variant. Remember that the stop screw sets the end position only—it is not a mid-stroke lock. Because a plain cylinder drifts on air loss, add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve if the load must be held.
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 MICJ16X160-50 FAQ
This 16 mm bore cylinder uses an M5×0.8 port.
An external screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 50 mm (usable range 110-160 mm), while a needle-set air cushion at both ends decelerates the piston near the ends to absorb high-speed shock. The cylinder does not hold position on air loss—the piston drifts—so use an external rod lock for held loads. This SKU has no magnet and cannot take sensors; choose the -S variant for CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches.
