The AirTAC MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X225-40S is a genuine double acting, double rod, adjustable stroke + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø16mm bore and 225mm 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.
Dial in a precise forward stop on-site with the AirTAC MICJ16X225-40S, a stainless-steel round-body mini cylinder that lets you shorten the extend stroke by up to 40 mm via an external screw. You get a usable extend range of 185 to 225 mm, while the retract stroke remains full. The built-in magnet (-S) supports CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG switches for exact position detection.
It features an adjustable air cushion at both ends to soak up high-speed shock, and its M5×0.8 port and M6x1.0 male rod thread drop into standard mini brackets.

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.
Trim the 225 mm extend stroke by up to 40 mm to hit a precise 185 mm ejection point without swapping cylinders, while the air cushion absorbs the 100.5 N impact.
Use the built-in magnet with DMSG sensors to confirm a 5 kg part is clamped, relying on the M5×0.8 port and ISO 6432 dimensions for easy machine integration.
Move samples in mildly corrosive environments using the stainless barrel and rod, tuning the needle cushion to decelerate smoothly at the end of each 225 mm cycle.
For lighter duty, the MIJ bumper-only series lacks this air cushion, making the MICJ your best choice for absorbing shock at speeds up to 800 mm/s. If you need more force, stepping up to the Ø20 bore increases push force to 157 N at 0.5 MPa. The external stop screw sets the extend end position but does not lock the piston mid-stroke; if you need to hold a load on air loss, add an external rod lock or pilot check valve. Use the LB, FA, or TC mounts (SDB is not offered here), and rely on the -S magnet for CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors.
Quick checklist
This 16 mm bore cylinder has an M5×0.8 port and an M6x1.0 male rod thread.
The external screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 40 mm, while the needle-set air cushion at both ends decelerates the piston near the ends to reduce shock. The -S suffix means it has a built-in magnet for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position sensors.
