About the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X40-10S
Trim the forward stop by up to 10 mm on site without swapping cylinders using the AirTAC MICJ16X40-10S. This double-acting, round-body stainless-steel mini cylinder pairs that adjustable extend stroke with a needle-set air cushion at both ends to soak up high-speed shock.
Built with a mildly corrosion-resistant stainless barrel and rod, it conforms to the ISO 6432 mounting interface for straightforward bracket integration. The built-in -S magnet supports CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG sensors for position confirmation.

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 MICJ16X40-10S Is Used
Light-Part Seating
Dial in the 10 mm extend stop to seat delicate electronic components precisely, using the adjustable air cushion to prevent impact damage at high cycle speeds.
Carton Stopper Pin
Deploy the Ø16 mm stainless rod as a retractable stop pin for small packaging flows, holding firm against boxes while resisting mild washdown moisture.
Is the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X40-10S the Right Cylinder?
For lighter duty, the standard MIJ bumper-only series lacks the adjustable cushion, making this MICJ model the better choice when you need controlled deceleration at speeds up to 800 mm/s. If you need more force, stepping up to the Ø20 bore increases the 0.5 MPa push force to 157 N. The external screw on this unit trims the extend end position only; it is not a mid-stroke lock. If the application requires the load to be held on air loss, install an external pilot-operated check valve or rod lock. Use LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion mounts (SDB is not available on this adjustable 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 MICJ16X40-10S FAQ
At 0.7 MPa, push is 140.7 N and pull is 120.9 N. The theoretical maximum force is 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
An external screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 10 mm on site, while the adjustable air cushion at both ends decelerates the piston near the stroke ends to absorb shock. The cushion only decelerates and does not lock or hold the load on air loss; use a pilot check valve for load holding. The -S magnet enables CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG sensor switches.
