The AirTAC MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X175-10 is a genuine double acting, double rod, adjustable stroke + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø16mm bore and 175mm 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 the forward stop on-site without swapping cylinders: this AirTAC MICJ16X175-10 miniature actuator uses an external screw to shorten the extend end position by up to 10 mm, giving a usable forward range of 165-175 mm. It pairs that settable stop with a needle-adjustable air cushion at both ends to soak up high-speed shock. The stainless-steel round barrel and Ø6 mm piston rod resist mild corrosion and washdown environments.
It is double-acting, runs at 30-800 mm/s, and uses an M5×0.8 port. Note this specific SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot host CMSG/DMSG/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.
Tunes the final 10 mm of extend to seat a delicate 5 kg micro-clamp precisely without shocking the part, using the dual-end air cushion.
Adjusts the forward stop to perfectly press a sealing jaw against varying pouch thicknesses while absorbing the 100.5 N impact at high cycle rates.
Sets an exact 168 mm dispense depth in a washdown-resistant stainless setup, letting the needle cushion absorb the end-of-stroke force.
This 16 mm bore is ideal when you need precise end-position tuning alongside shock absorption for fast, repetitive moves.
Remember that the stop screw sets the end position but does not lock the piston mid-stroke, and the air cushion only decelerates near the ends. If air pressure drops, the rod drifts; use an external rod lock or pilot check valve to hold a suspended load. For mounting, use LB, FA, or TC attachments (SDB is not offered on adjustable-stroke types). Because this exact SKU has no -S magnet, position sensing is not possible here.
Quick checklist
The theoretical max force is 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. This 16 mm bore cylinder features an M5×0.8 port and a Ø6 mm rod.
An external screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 10 mm (retract remains full), while the needle-adjustable air cushion decelerates the piston at both ends. This SKU has no magnet, so it cannot take CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors; you would need the -S variant for that.
