The AirTAC MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X250-100 is a genuine double acting, double rod, adjustable stroke + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø16mm bore and 250mm 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 100 mm on site without swapping hardware using this AirTAC MICJ16X250-100 round-body mini cylinder. The external screw adjusts the extend end position only (yielding a usable 150-250 mm forward travel), while a needle-set variable air cushion at both ends soaks up high-speed shock. Retract travel remains the full 250 mm. Built as a double-acting stainless steel riveted unit, it resists mild corrosion and washdown environments.
It features an M5×0.8 air port, an M6x1.0 male rod thread, and conforms to the ISO 6432 mounting interface for standard mini brackets. Note this SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors.

| 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.
Push light machined parts into a washdown station using the stainless steel barrel and rod, trimming the forward stroke by up to 100 mm to accommodate different fixture widths.
Lift a 5 kg access gate vertically at high speed, letting the adjustable air cushion decelerate the load smoothly at the extend end without slamming.
The adjustable stop screw and dual cushions shine in fast set-position moves where you must dial in the exact forward endpoint and control impact without external shock absorbers.
Remember that the stop screw sets the end position but is not a mid-stroke lock; the piston will drift on air loss. Use 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 here), and select the -S variant if you need position sensing.
Quick checklist
This 16 mm bore cylinder uses an M5×0.8 air port and an M6x1.0 male rod thread.
An external screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 100 mm on site, while a needle valve adjusts the air cushion at both ends to decelerate high-speed impacts. The cushion only slows the piston near the end of travel; it is not a brake. This SKU has no magnet and cannot take sensors, and the cylinder will drift on air loss unless you add an external rod lock.
