About the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X300-30S
Dial in a precise forward stop on-site with the AirTAC MICJ16X300-30S, a stainless-steel round-body mini cylinder featuring a 30 mm adjustable extend stroke. An external stop screw trims the extend end position down from the 300 mm nominal maximum, letting you set the exact forward travel without swapping hardware. A needle-set adjustable air cushion at both ends soaks up high-speed shock to protect your tooling. This double-acting actuator conforms to the ISO 6432 mounting interface for straightforward bracket interchangeability.
The stainless barrel and piston rod resist mild corrosion and washdown environments. Because this SKU includes the -S magnet, it is fully ready for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position sensing.

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 MICJ16X300-30S Is Used
Light-Part Ejection
Use the 30 mm extend trim to dial in the exact ejection stroke on a 5 kg assembly, relying on the dual air cushions to absorb the impact of fast 300 mm cycles.
Carton Flap Folding
Set a precise forward stop for folding light packaging flaps, using the built-in magnet for DMSG sensor confirmation and the stainless body for washdown resistance.
Small Component Sorting
Sort lightweight plastic parts at speed, tuning the extend end position on-site without changing cylinders while the needle cushion prevents end-cap shock.
Is the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X300-30S the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 16 mm bore, consider that stepping up to the Ø20 bore raises the 0.5 MPa push force to 157 N, while dropping to a smaller mini cylinder leaves you with a non-cushioned bumper design. The MICJ16X300-30S is ideal for fast, settable-position moves where the 30 mm extend trim and dual adjustable air cushions prevent harsh end-of-stroke impacts. Foot (LB), flange (FA), and trunnion (TC) mounts are available, but the SDB pivot block is not offered on this adjustable variant.
Remember that the stop screw sets the end position but does not function as a mid-stroke lock. The cylinder will drift and cannot hold a load on air loss, as the air cushion only decelerates near the stroke end. If your application requires a held load, install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
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 MICJ16X300-30S FAQ
This 16 mm bore cylinder features an M5×0.8 port and an M6x1.0 male rod thread. The theoretical maximum force is 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
An external screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 30 mm (usable extend 270-300 mm), while a needle valve adjusts the air cushion at both ends to decelerate the piston before impact. The -S suffix means a piston magnet is built-in, allowing CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors to detect position.
