About the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X175-30
Trim the forward stop by up to 30 mm on site without swapping hardware using this AirTAC MICJ16X175-30 round-body mini cylinder. The external screw shortens the extend end position (usable range 145-175 mm), while a needle-set variable air cushion at both ends soaks up high-speed shock. Built with a stainless-steel barrel and Ø6 mm rod, it resists mild corrosion and washdown environments. It conforms to the ISO 6432 mounting interface for straightforward bracket interchangeability.
It operates at speeds from 30 to 800 mm/s, and because this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or 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.
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 MICJ16X175-30 Is Used
Gauge Positioning
Dial in the exact 145 to 175 mm extend reach to trigger a gauge, relying on the air cushion to prevent shock at high cycling speeds.
Sample Ejection
Ejects lightweight lab samples using a 5.1 kg vertical lift margin, stopping cleanly without jarring sensitive instruments thanks to the end cushions.
Is the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X175-30 the Right Cylinder?
The MICJ16X175-30 is ideal when you need fast, settable-position moves up to 175 mm where the dual air cushions can properly decelerate the impact. Mount using LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion brackets, plus CA, U, R, or CM back covers (the SDB pivot-block is not available on this adjustable variant).
Remember that the external stop screw sets the extend end position but is not a mid-stroke lock. A plain cylinder does not hold its load on air loss or when the valve is centered—the piston will drift. If your application requires a held load, install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
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 MICJ16X175-30 FAQ
This 16 mm bore cylinder uses an M5×0.8 port and a male M6x1.0 rod thread.
An external screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 30 mm on-site, while the needle-set air cushion at both ends decelerates the piston near the stroke ends to absorb high-speed shock. The cushion only decelerates and is not a brake; the piston will drift on air loss, so use an external rod lock or pilot check valve to hold a load. This SKU lacks a magnet and cannot take sensors; the -S variant is required for CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches.
