The AirTAC MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X60-20 is a genuine double acting, double rod, adjustable stroke + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø16mm bore and 60mm 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.
Dial in a precise forward stop on-site with the AirTAC MICJ16X60-20, a stainless-steel round-body mini cylinder that lets you shorten the extend stroke by up to 20 mm via an external screw. Because it also features an adjustable air cushion at both ends, you can set the exact end position and simultaneously soak up high-speed impact shock.
The stainless barrel and piston rod provide reliable mild corrosion and washdown resistance. Note this SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensors; choose the -S variant if you need position detection.

| Stroke | 60 mm |
| Acting type | Double acting, double rod, adjustable stroke + cushion |
| Port size | M5×0.8 |
| Rod thread | M6×1.0 |
| Fluid | Air (filtered by 40µm element) |
|---|---|
| Operating pressure | 0.15 – 1.0 MPa |
| Proof pressure | 1.5 MPa |
| Temperature | -20 to +70 °C |
| Speed range | 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.
| 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. |
| ×60 | Stroke length in mm. |
| -20 | Adjustable stroke window (mm the extend stroke can be shortened on site). |
| -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.
Eject small molded parts at speed, using the 20 mm extend-stop screw to tune the drop point without moving the cylinder bracket, while the air cushion absorbs the end-of-stroke shock.
When sizing this 16 mm bore, compare it directly to the next size up: the Ø20 bore pushes 157 N at 0.5 MPa, whereas this Ø16 pushes 100.5 N. If your load is lighter, the smaller MIJ bumper-only series is the alternative, but this MICJ gives you the dual advantage of a 20 mm extend-stop screw and needle-controlled shock absorption for fast, settable-position moves. The stop screw sets the end position but is not a mid-stroke lock, and the cushion only decelerates near the stroke end. If you need to hold a load on air loss, add an external rod lock or pilot check valve. Mount via LB foot, FA flange or TC trunnion (SDB is not offered on this adjustable variant).
Quick checklist
This 16 mm bore cylinder has an M5×0.8 port and a 6 mm rod. At 0.5 MPa it pushes 100.5 N and pulls 86.4 N. At 0.7 MPa it pushes 140.7 N and pulls 120.9 N. The theoretical maximum force is 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
An external screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 20 mm (usable extend 40-60 mm), while a needle valve adjusts the air cushion at both ends to decelerate high-speed moves. The cylinder does not hold position on air loss and the cushion is not a brake; use an external rod lock for holding. This specific SKU has no magnet and cannot take sensors; the -S variant is required for CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches.
