The AirTAC MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X50-20 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.
The MICJ16X50-20 is a round-body stainless mini cylinder that lets you dial in the forward stop on site. An external screw shortens the extend end by up to 20 mm, so you can set the position without swapping cylinders. At the same time, a needle-adjustable air cushion at both ends absorbs shock at high speed, protecting the load and the machine.
The stainless barrel and rod resist mild corrosion and washdown, and the ISO 6432 mounting interface fits standard mini brackets. Port is M5×0.8. This SKU has no magnet, so it cannot accept a magnetic switch; choose the -S variant for 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.
| 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).

|---|---|
| 16 | Bore size in mm. |

| -S | Optional built-in magnet for CMSG / DMSG / EMSG sensors. |
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 20 mm adjustable stroke to fine-tune the clamp forward position on a fixture, while the cushion prevents shock at the end of each cycle.
Position a 100 N stop for small part alignment in assembly lines, adjusting the extend limit on the fly without changing the cylinder.
Run at up to 800 mm/s in light indexing tasks; the adjustable cushion at both ends absorbs the kinetic energy and extends component life.
The adjustable stop plus cushion suits fast set-position moves where you want to control both the endpoint and the impact. Remember this cylinder does not hold position on air loss - use an external rod lock or pilot check valve for holding. Mounting options include LB foot, FA flange, and TC trunnion; SDB pivot-block is not available on this variant.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, push is 100.5 N and pull is 86.4 N. At 0.7 MPa, push is 140.7 N and pull is 120.9 N. Theoretical maximum force is 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
An external screw shortens the extend end by up to 20 mm, so the usable extend stroke is 30-50 mm; retract remains full. The air cushion at both ends decelerates the piston near stroke end but is not a lock. This SKU has no magnet, so it cannot take a sensor; the -S version adds one for CMSG/DMSG/EMSG.
