The AirTAC MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X300-50S is a genuine double acting, double rod, adjustable stroke + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø16mm bore and 300mm 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: this MICJ16X300-50S uses an external screw to shorten the extend end position from its 300 mm nominal stroke down to 250 mm, while the retract remains full length. A needle-set variable air cushion at both ends soaks up high-speed shock so you control both the endpoint and the impact. The built-in magnet (-S) directly supports CMSG, DMSG and EMSG position switches.
Built as a stainless-steel, riveted round-body mini cylinder, the Ø16 bore runs on a 6 mm rod with an M5×0.8 port and conforms to the ISO 6432 mounting interface. The stainless barrel and rod shrug off mild washdown corrosion.

| 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).

Shifts a small package guide with a 50 mm extend trim to dial in the exact stopping distance, while the dual air cushions absorb the impact of fast 300 mm cycling.
Pays out wrapping material up to 300 mm; the needle cushion decelerates the rod smoothly at stroke end to prevent tearing, and the -S magnet tracks the full movement.
Pushes a 5 kg test tray vertically using the 100.5 N @0.5 MPa force, relying on the stainless construction for mild corrosion resistance in wet test bays.
At Ø16 this is the smallest cushioned bore in the line; if you need less force, the smaller MIJ uses a fixed bumper instead of an air cushion. This adjustable-stop plus dual-cushion design shines when you need fast, settable-position moves, but remember the stop screw only trims the extend end—it is not a mid-stroke lock. The cylinder will drift on air loss, so add an external rod lock or pilot check valve for held loads. Mount via LB foot, FA flange or TC trunnion (SDB pivot-block is not offered), and use the -S magnet for CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors.
Quick checklist
This double-acting cylinder has an M5×0.8 port and a 6 mm rod. The theoretical maximum force is 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
An external screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 50 mm (usable range 250-300 mm); the retract stroke stays full. A needle valve adjusts the air cushion at both ends to decelerate the piston near the ends. This is not a mid-stroke lock or brake, and the cylinder will drift on air loss. The -S magnet enables CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors.
