About the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X50-30
Trim the forward stop by up to 30 mm on site with the AirTAC MICJ16X50-30, a double-acting round-body stainless mini cylinder. You set the exact extend position without swapping hardware, while a needle-adjustable air cushion at both ends soaks up high-speed shock. The M5×0.8 port and M6x1.0 male rod thread keep the pneumatic layout compact.
Built to the ISO 6432 mounting interface, this 16 mm bore unit drops into standard mini brackets. The stainless barrel and rod resist mild washdown corrosion. Note this SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot host 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.
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 MICJ16X50-30 Is Used
Gauge Positioning
Dial in the 20-50 mm extend stroke to push a measuring gauge precisely onto parts without recalculating fixed stops, absorbing the 100.5 N impact with the air cushion.
Flap Tucking
Set a repeatable 30 mm short stroke to tuck carton flaps at high speed, relying on the adjustable cushion to stop the 16 mm bore cleanly without slamming.
Is the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X50-30 the Right Cylinder?
For lighter duties, the standard MIJ bumper cylinder is the only smaller option, as the cushioned MICJ line starts at Ø16. The adjustable stop screw and dual cushions shine in fast set-position moves, letting you dial in the 20-50 mm extend window and control impact without external shock absorbers.
The stop screw sets the end position but is not a mid-stroke lock; the piston drifts on air loss, so add an external rod lock or pilot check valve to hold a suspended load. Use LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion mounts, as the SDB pivot block is unavailable here. For position feedback, select the -S magnet variant to enable sensors.
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 MICJ16X50-30 FAQ
This 16 mm bore cylinder uses an M5×0.8 port.
An external screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 30 mm, while the needle-set air cushion at both ends decelerates the piston near the ends to absorb shock. The cushion only decelerates and does not lock; the piston drifts on air loss, so you need an external rod lock for holding. This non-S SKU lacks a magnet for sensors.
