The AirTAC MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X200-20 is a genuine double acting, double rod, adjustable stroke + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø16mm bore and 200mm 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 20 mm on site with the MICJ16X200-20, a stainless-steel round-body mini cylinder that pairs an adjustable extend stroke with a needle-set air cushion at both ends to absorb high-speed shock. The external screw lets you dial in the exact 180-200 mm extend position without swapping hardware, while the retract stroke remains full. Built with a 16 mm bore and 6 mm rod, it uses an M5×0.8 port and conforms to the ISO 6432 mounting interface for standard mini brackets.
The stainless barrel and rod resist mild corrosion and washdown environments. Note that this specific SKU lacks a magnet and cannot host CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors; order the -S variant if position sensing is required.

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) |
|---|---|

| 0.7 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.
Shoots small plastic parts out of a mold cavity, using the 20 mm extend adjustment to hit the exact drop distance without reprogramming the machine.
Pushes light cartons on a sorting line, relying on the adjustable air cushion to decelerate the 200 mm stroke smoothly at high cycling speeds.
Seats small electronic connectors into housings, applying up to 60 N of safe working force while trimming the forward stop to prevent crushing.
The adjustable 20 mm extend stop and dual air cushions shine in fast set-position moves where you must tune the impact deceleration on the fly. Mount via LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion (the SDB pivot-block is not offered on this adjustable variant).
Remember that the stop screw sets the end position but does not function as a mid-stroke lock. The cylinder will drift and cannot hold a load on air loss or when the valve is centered; integrate an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve if you need strict position holding.
Quick checklist
At 0.7 MPa, push is 140.7 N and pull is 120.9 N. The theoretical maximum force is 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
An external screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 20 mm (usable range 180-200 mm), while a needle valve adjusts the air cushion at both ends to soak up high-speed shock. The cushion only decelerates near the stroke end and does not lock the piston. This SKU has no magnet and cannot take sensors; the -S version is required for CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches.
