The AirTAC MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X175-40 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.
Trim the forward stop by up to 40 mm on site without swapping hardware using the AirTAC MICJ16X175-40. This 16 mm bore, double-acting stainless steel round-body mini cylinder pairs that adjustable extend stroke with a needle-set air cushion at both ends, letting you dial in the exact 135-175 mm forward position while soaking up high-speed impact. It conforms to the ISO 6432 mounting interface for straightforward bracket integration.
The stainless barrel and rod resist mild washdown corrosion. Note this SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot host CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors. The M5×0.8 port and M6x1.0 male rod thread keep pneumatic and mechanical connections compact.

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.
Set the extend stroke anywhere from 135 to 175 mm to push parts of varying widths out of a machining fixture without retooling the entire station.
Leverage the stainless steel barrel and rod for mild corrosion resistance in damp testing environments where a fixed 175 mm stroke is trimmed on the fly.
When sizing this 16 mm bore, dropping down means moving to an MIJ bumper-only adjustable cylinder, giving up the dual air cushions. Stepping up to the Ø20 bore raises the 0.5 MPa push force to 157 N if your load exceeds the 60 N safe working threshold. The external stop screw and cushion shine in fast set-position moves where you must repeatedly hit a custom forward mark.
The stop screw sets the end position but is not a mid-stroke lock; the piston will drift on air loss, so add an external rod lock or pilot check valve for held loads. Mount via LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion (SDB pivot-block is unavailable on this adjustable variant). Because this specific code lacks the -S magnet, position sensing is not supported here.
Quick checklist
The theoretical maximum force is 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
An external screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 40 mm (retract remains full), while the needle-set air cushion at both ends only decelerates the piston near stroke end to absorb shock. It is not a mid-stroke lock or brake, and the piston will drift on air loss; use an external rod lock to hold a load. This SKU has no magnet, so sensors are unsupported.
