About the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X175-30S
Dial in a precise forward stop on-site with the AirTAC MICJ16X175-30S, a stainless-steel round-body mini cylinder featuring an adjustable extend stroke and an adjustable air cushion at both ends. An external screw trims the extend end position by up to 30 mm (yielding a usable 145-175 mm forward travel) without swapping hardware, while the needle-set cushion soaks up high-speed shock.
Built with a riveted stainless barrel and a Ø6 mm piston rod (M6x1.0 male thread), it withstands mild washdown and corrosion. It uses the ISO 6432 mounting interface for standard mini brackets and includes a built-in piston magnet (-S) for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors. The M5×0.8 port ensures reliable airflow.

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 MICJ16X175-30S Is Used
Carton Flap Folding
Dials in the exact forward position to fold light packaging flaps, relying on the 30 mm on-site stroke adjustment to perfect the hit without changing cylinders.
Small Product Diverting
Handles 60 N diverting loads on a conveyor, using the needle-set cushion to absorb shock and the -S magnet to confirm end-of-stroke with a DMSG sensor.
Is the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X175-30S the Right Cylinder?
The 30 mm extend adjuster paired with the dual air cushions is perfect for high-speed positioning where you must tune the forward stop and decelerate impact without adding external shock absorbers. It operates on standard M5×0.8 ports.
Remember that the stop screw sets the end position but does not function as a mid-stroke lock; the cylinder drifts on air loss, so fit an external rod lock or pilot check valve for held loads. Mount using LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion brackets (the SDB pivot block is not offered on this adjustable variant), and leverage the -S magnet for CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensor integration.
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 MICJ16X175-30S FAQ
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 maximum 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 30 mm, and a needle valve adjusts the air cushion at both ends to absorb high-speed shock. The -S magnet enables CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. It does not hold position on air loss; use an external rod lock for that.
