About the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X60-30S
Trim the forward stop by up to 30 mm on site without swapping cylinders, then let the adjustable air cushion at both ends soak up the high-speed shock. This AirTAC MICJ16X60-30S is a double-acting, round-body stainless-steel mini cylinder with a 60 mm nominal stroke, yielding a usable extend range of 30-60 mm while retract stays full.
Built with a stainless barrel and rod for mild washdown resistance, the 16 mm bore conforms to the ISO 6432 mounting interface for standard mini brackets. The -S suffix means a piston magnet is present for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensors. The M5×0.8 port feeds the chamber at speeds of 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.
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 MICJ16X60-30S Is Used
Light Part Ejection
Eject 5 kg molded widgets at speed; the adjustable needle bleeds off shock just before the 60 mm mark, protecting the small M6x1.0 rod thread from snap loads.
Lab Dispense Positioning
Set an exact fluid dispense height between 30 and 60 mm. The stainless build resists mild chemical splashes, and the -S magnet tracks position with a DMSG sensor.
Is the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X60-30S the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 16 mm bore, dropping to a smaller standard cushioned size is not an option because AirTAC only offers the cushion build starting at Ø16; a smaller footprint requires the MIJ bumper style. Stepping up to the Ø20 bore raises the 0.5 MPa push from 100.5 N to 157 N if your load exceeds the 60 N safe working figure. The external stop screw and needle cushion shine in fast set-position moves where you dial in the exact forward stop and control impact. The stop screw sets the end position but is not a mid-stroke lock, and the cushion only decelerates near the end. The piston drifts on air loss, so use an external rod lock or pilot check valve to hold a load. Mount via LB, FA or TC (SDB is unavailable here), and match your CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches to this -S magnet SKU.
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 MICJ16X60-30S FAQ
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 max force is 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The air port is M5×0.8.
An external screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 30 mm, and an adjustable air cushion at both ends decelerates the piston near the ends. The -S suffix provides a magnet for CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. The cushion only decelerates and does not lock; the piston drifts on air loss, so use a pilot check valve to hold a load.
