The AirTAC MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X160-75S is a genuine double acting, double rod, adjustable stroke + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø16mm bore and 160mm 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.
Dial in a precise forward stop on-site with the AirTAC MICJ16X160-75S, a stainless-steel round-body mini cylinder that shortens its extend stroke by up to 75 mm via an external screw. Usable extend ranges 85-160 mm, while the retract remains full. A needle-set adjustable air cushion at both ends soaks up high-speed shock to protect your tooling.
Built to the ISO 6432 mounting interface, this double-acting Ø16 bore drops into standard mini brackets and features a built-in magnet (-S) for CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. The M5×0.8 port and M6x1.0 male rod thread provide straightforward integration for light-force positioning tasks.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC MI/MIC (ISO 6432) datasheet. Barrel & rod: stainless steel (round-body, riveted construction). Thread options: PT (blank) / G.

| 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.
Handles light cartons on a line at speed, relying on the dual adjustable air cushions to decelerate the 160 mm stroke smoothly and prevent end-impact slamming.
Moves test tubes between stations where the stainless build resists mild washdown, and the -S magnet triggers CMSG sensors to confirm the extend position.
For lighter duty, the MIJ bumper-only series lacks the air cushion needed for high-speed moves; stepping up to a Ø20 MICJ raises the 0.5 MPa push force to 157 N.
The external stop screw sets the extend end position but does not lock the piston mid-stroke; if air drops, the load drifts, so add an external rod lock or pilot check valve for holding. Mount via LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion (SDB is not offered), and use the -S magnet for CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches.
Quick checklist
This double-acting cylinder pushes 100.5 N and pulls 86.4 N at 0.5 MPa, and pushes 140.7 N / pulls 120.9 N at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical max force is 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It uses an M5×0.8 air port.
An external screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 75 mm (usable 85-160 mm), while a needle valve adjusts the air cushion at both ends to absorb high-speed shock. The cylinder does not hold position on air loss; use an external rod lock for that.
