About the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X30-30
Dial in a precise forward stop on-site with the AirTAC MICJ16X30-30, a stainless-steel round-body mini cylinder that shortens the extend stroke by up to 30 mm via an external screw. The adjustable air cushion at both ends soaks up high-speed shock, letting you set the exact end position while controlling impact. It conforms to the ISO 6432 mounting interface for Ø16 bores, dropping into standard mini brackets.
The stainless barrel and rod resist mild corrosion and washdown environments. It features an M5×0.8 port and an M6x1.0 male rod thread. Note that this specific SKU lacks a magnet and cannot accept position sensors; you would need the -S variant to use CMSG, DMSG, or 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.
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 MICJ16X30-30 Is Used
Micro-Clamp Actuation
Drives a small machining fixture clamp. The 30 mm extend stop dials in the exact jaw travel, while the dual air cushions absorb impact to protect delicate workpieces.
Light Part Ejection
Pushes lightweight plastic components out of a mold cavity.
Small-Sort Diverter
Acts as a high-speed routing gate for small packages on a conveyor. The needle-set cushions decelerate the gate smoothly at 800 mm/s without hard bouncing.
Is the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X30-30 the Right Cylinder?
If your application requires more power, stepping up to the MICJ20 increases the 0.5 MPa push force to 157 N.
The external stop screw sets the extend end position but is not a mid-stroke lock; the piston will drift on air loss, so add an external rod lock or pilot check valve for held loads. Mounting options include LB foot, FA flange, and TC trunnion, plus CA, U, R, or CM back covers, but the SDB pivot-block is not available on this adjustable-stroke variant.
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 MICJ16X30-30 FAQ
This double-acting cylinder uses an M5×0.8 port and an M6x1.0 male rod thread.
An external screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 30 mm on-site, and an adjustable air cushion at both ends decelerates the piston near stroke ends. The cushion is not a brake, and the cylinder will drift on air loss; use an external rod lock to hold a load. This SKU has no magnet, so it cannot take sensors.
