About the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X50-30STC
Trim the forward stop by up to 30 mm on site without swapping cylinders using the AirTAC MICJ16X50-30STC. This double-acting stainless-steel round-body mini cylinder pairs that adjustable extend stroke with a variable air cushion at both ends, letting you dial in the exact end position from 20 to 50 mm while soaking up high-speed shock.
The stainless barrel and rod resist mild corrosion and washdown, and the built-in magnet (-S) supports CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG sensors. Air connects via an M5×0.8 port.

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 MICJ16X50-30STC Is Used
Light Parts Ejection
Ejects small plastic parts at speed. The 30 mm extend adjuster dials in the exact push distance, while the air cushion absorbs the end-of-stroke impact.
Flap Folding
Folds carton flaps on a packaging line.
Lab Sample Sorting
Diverts sample tubes with a gentle stop. The stainless construction resists lab washdown, and the -S magnet works with DMSG sensors for position feedback.
Is the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X50-30STC the Right Cylinder?
For lighter pushes, the MIJ bumper-only series is the next step down, lacking this cushion. If you need more force, stepping up to the Ø20 MICJ yields 157.0 N at 0.5 MPa. Choose this Ø16 model when you need fast, settable-position moves under 60 N. The TC trunnion mounting is included, but note that the SDB pivot-block is not available on this adjustable-stroke variant.
Remember that the stop screw sets the extend end position but is not a mid-stroke lock. The cylinder will drift on air loss, and the air cushion only decelerates near the stroke end. To hold a load securely, add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve.
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 MICJ16X50-30STC FAQ
This double-acting cylinder uses an M5×0.8 port. The theoretical maximum force is 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
An external screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 30 mm, giving a usable forward range of 20-50 mm. A needle-set air cushion at both ends decelerates the piston near the ends to absorb high-speed shock. The cylinder does not hold position on air loss; use an external rod lock for that.
