About the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X300-100
Dial in a precise forward stop without swapping cylinders: the AirTAC MICJ16X300-100 uses an external screw to shorten the extend stroke by up to 100 mm on site, giving a usable forward range of 200-300 mm. A needle-set adjustable air cushion at both ends soaks up high-speed shock so you control both the end position and the impact. It is a double-acting, round-body stainless-steel mini cylinder with an M5×0.8 port and an M6x1.0 male rod thread.
Built to the ISO 6432 mounting interface, it drops into standard mini brackets and clevises, while the stainless barrel and rod resist mild corrosion and washdown. Note this SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot host CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors.

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 MICJ16X300-100 Is Used
Light-Part Ejection
Tune the extend stop to 250 mm to eject light plastic parts off a conveyor without adding hard stops, using the dual air cushions to absorb 800 mm/s impacts.
Lab Dispense Head
Dial the extend stroke down from 300 mm to position a fluid dispense head over varying vial heights, benefiting from the stainless build in wipe-down areas.
Is the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X300-100 the Right Cylinder?
Size both ways before committing: dropping to a smaller MIJ bumper-only bore loses your air cushion, while stepping up to the MICJ 20 mm bore raises push force to 157 N at 0.5 MPa. This 16 mm bore fits best when you need light force, fast 30-800 mm/s cycling, and on-site extend tuning to hit a specific 200-300 mm forward stop. The adjustable air cushion is ideal for taming shock at those high speeds.
Remember the stop screw sets the end position but is not a mid-stroke lock; a plain cylinder drifts on air loss, so add an external rod lock or pilot check valve to hold a suspended load. Mount via LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion (SDB pivot-block is unavailable on this adjustable variant). Because this exact SKU has no -S magnet, position sensing is impossible here; order the -S version if you need CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches.
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 MICJ16X300-100 FAQ
The theoretical maximum force is 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
An external screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 100 mm (retract stays full), while needle valves tune the adjustable air cushions at both ends to decelerate the piston near stroke ends. The cushions only slow the rod, they do not lock it; the cylinder drifts on air loss, and because this SKU lacks a -S magnet, it cannot take position sensors.
