About the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X225-40
Dial in a precise forward stop on-site with the AirTAC MICJ16X225-40, a stainless-steel round-body mini cylinder that shortens the extend stroke by up to 40 mm via an external screw (usable extend 185-225 mm). Built as a double-acting actuator with an M5×0.8 port and M6x1.0 male rod thread, it pairs this settable position with an adjustable air cushion at both ends to soak up high-speed shock. The Ø6 mm piston rod and riveted barrel shrug off mild corrosion and washdown environments.
It conforms to the ISO 6432 mounting interface for standard mini brackets. Note this SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot take CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors; the stop screw and cushions only decelerate near stroke end, never locking mid-stroke.

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 MICJ16X225-40 Is Used
Divert Gate Positioning
Trims the 225 mm extend stroke by up to 40 mm to hit a moving divert gate perfectly, while the dual air cushions absorb shock during rapid 800 mm/s actuation.
Light Carton Flap Folding
Delivers a safe 60 N working load to fold light packaging flaps, using the external stop screw to adapt flap height on the fly without changing cylinders.
Is the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X225-40 the Right Cylinder?
For lighter duties, the MIJ bumper-only series is the smaller option, while stepping up to the Ø20 MICJ bore raises the 0.5 MPa push force to 157 N. Choose this 225 mm stroke model when you need a long reach with the flexibility to trim the forward end by 40 mm without swapping hardware. The dual air cushions are essential for maintaining speed across that long travel without slamming.
Remember that the external screw sets the end position but does not hold the load on air loss—the piston will drift, so add an external rod lock or pilot check valve for suspended loads. Mount via LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion (SDB pivot-block is not available on this adjustable variant). Because this specific SKU has no -S magnet, position sensing is not possible.
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 MICJ16X225-40 FAQ
Its 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 needle-set air cushions at both ends decelerate the piston near stroke ends. This SKU has no -S magnet so sensors cannot be fitted, and the cushion/stop screw do not lock or hold the load—if air is lost, the piston drifts.
