The AirTAC MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X225-50 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.
Trim the forward stop by up to 50 mm on site without swapping hardware using this AirTAC MICJ16X225-50 round-body stainless mini cylinder. It is a double-acting unit with a 225 mm nominal stroke, yielding a usable extend range of 175-225 mm, and it features a needle-set variable air cushion at both ends to soak up high-speed shock.
Built with a stainless-steel barrel and rod for mild corrosion resistance, it conforms to the ISO 6432 mounting interface for Ø16 bores. This non-magnet SKU uses an M5×0.8 port and cannot take a sensor; the -S variant enables CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches.

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.
Dial in the exact 175-225 mm extend position on a 5 kg part inspection fixture, relying on the 50 mm stop screw to set the precise forward reach without re machining stops.
Move a dispense nozzle forward in a washdown environment, benefiting from the stainless construction and tuning the extend stop to accommodate different container heights.
The 50 mm extend adjuster and dual air cushions shine in fast set-position moves where you need to dial in the exact forward stop and control impact without external shock absorbers.
The external screw sets the extend end position only; it is not a mid-stroke lock, and the air cushion solely decelerates near the stroke end. This cylinder will not hold a load on air loss, so add an external rod lock or pilot check valve for suspended loads. Mount using LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion brackets, plus CA, U, R, or CM back covers, noting that SDB pivot blocks are not available on this adjustable variant.
Quick checklist
This 16 mm bore cylinder uses an M5×0.8 port and an M6x1.0 male rod thread.
An external stop screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 50 mm on site, giving a usable forward range of 175-225 mm, while retract remains full. Needle valves adjust the air cushion at both ends to decelerate the piston before impact. This is a non-magnet SKU, so it cannot take a sensor; you need the -S variant for CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches.
