The AirTAC MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X50-10S is a genuine double acting, double rod, adjustable stroke + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø16mm bore and 50mm 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 10 mm on site without swapping hardware using the AirTAC MICJ16X50-10S. This double-acting, round-body stainless-steel mini cylinder pairs an external extend adjuster with a needle-set air cushion at both ends, letting you dial in the exact 40-50 mm forward position while soaking up high-speed shock. The stainless barrel and Ø6 mm piston rod resist mild corrosion and washdown environments. A built-in magnet (-S) supports CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG sensors for position confirmation, and the M5×0.8 port conforms to the ISO 6432 mounting interface for standard mini brackets.
The adjustable cushion decelerates the load near the stroke ends but does not lock the piston mid-travel. Operating pressure spans 0.15-1.0 MPa, with speeds from 30-800 mm/s.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC MI/MIC (ISO 6432) datasheet. Barrel & rod: stainless steel (round-body, riveted construction). Thread options: PT (blank) / G.

| 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).

MI-family variants: MI / MIC (double acting ±cushion), MSI / MTI (single acting push / pull), MID / MICD (double rod ±cushion), MIJ / MICJ (double rod, adjustable stroke ±cushion). Back covers CA / U / R / CM. Mounting LB / FA / SDB / TC.
Use the washdown-resistant stainless body and -S magnet with a DMSG sensor to verify precise fluid dispensing positions in compact laboratory automation.
When sizing this 16 mm bore against the family, stepping down drops you to the MIJ bumper-only series, as no smaller cushioned MICJ variant exists. If your application demands more thrust, the next size up is the Ø20 bore, which raises the 0.5 MPa push force from 100.5 N to 157 N. The MICJ16X50-10S shines in fast set-position moves where the 10 mm extend adjuster and dual air cushions prevent end-of-stroke banging. For mounting, use LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion brackets (SDB pivot-block is not offered on this adjustable variant). Because the stop screw and cushion only decelerate the load, add an external rod lock or pilot check valve if you need to hold a vertical load on air loss.
Quick checklist
This 16 mm bore cylinder features an M5×0.8 port and an M6x1.0 male rod thread.
An external screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 10 mm (usable extend 40-50 mm), while the needle-set air cushion at both ends absorbs high-speed shock. The -S suffix means a magnet is built in for CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. The cushion only decelerates near stroke end; it is not a mid-stroke lock, so the piston will drift on air loss.
