About the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X50-40
Trim the forward stop by up to 40 mm on site with the AirTAC MICJ16X50-40, a stainless-steel round-body mini cylinder that pairs a double-acting adjustable extend stroke with a needle-set air cushion at both ends. The external screw shrinks the 50 mm extend end down to a 10 mm usable forward position, letting you dial in the exact spot without swapping hardware, while the dual cushions soak up high-speed shock. Built with a Ø16 mm bore, Ø6 mm rod, and an M5×0.8 port, it uses the ISO 6432 mounting interface for standard mini brackets.
The stainless barrel and rod resist mild corrosion and washdown environments. Note this SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors; you would need the -S variant for position detection.

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 MICJ16X50-40 Is Used
Light Part Ejection
Dial the 40 mm extend stop in to eject 5 kg plastic parts from a mold without recalculating fixed lengths, relying on the cushion to absorb the 800 mm/s impact.
Lab Dispense Head
Set a precise 10 mm forward dip for a dispensing nozzle in a washdown-resistant stainless setup, letting the air cushion decelerate the approach gently.
Is the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X50-40 the Right Cylinder?
The adjustable stop and high-speed cushion shine in fast set-position moves where you need to tweak the extend endpoint on the fly. Mount it via LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion, as the SDB pivot-block is not offered on this adjustable variant. Remember the stop screw sets the end position but is not a mid-stroke lock; the cylinder drifts on air loss, so add an external rod lock or pilot check valve to hold a suspended load.
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 MICJ16X50-40 FAQ
An external screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 40 mm, while the needle-set air cushion at both ends only decelerates the piston near stroke end to absorb shock. This SKU has no magnet for sensors, and because it is not a lock or brake, the piston will drift on air loss unless you fit an external rod lock.
