The AirTAC MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X60-40S 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.
Trim the forward stop by up to 40 mm on site without swapping cylinders using the AirTAC MICJ16X60-40S. This double-acting, ISO 6432 round-body stainless-steel mini cylinder pairs that adjustable extend stroke with a needle-set air cushion at both ends to soak up high-speed shock, letting you set the position and control the impact simultaneously. The M5×0.8 port and M6x1.0 male rod thread drop into standard mini brackets seamlessly.
The stainless barrel and rod resist mild corrosion and washdown environments. Because this SKU includes the -S magnet, it is fully ready for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG position switches.

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) |
|---|---|

| 0.7 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).

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.
Dial in the 40 mm extend stop to deflect small packages precisely at high speed, relying on the dual air cushions to prevent endcap shock.
When sizing this 16 mm bore, dropping down is not an equivalent cushioned option—the smaller MIJ series relies on a fixed bumper. If you need more force, the next MICJ bore up is Ø20, which pushes 157.0 N at 0.5 MPa. The 40 mm extend adjuster and dual air cushions shine in fast set-position moves where you must dial in a precise forward stop without crashing the endcap.
The external screw sets the end position but is not a mid-stroke lock; the piston will drift on air loss, so add an external rod lock or pilot check valve for held loads. Mount via LB foot, FA flange or TC trunnion (the SDB pivot-block is not available on this adjustable variant), and rely on the -S magnet for sensor feedback.
Quick checklist
Its theoretical maximum force is 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
An external screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 40 mm (retract remains full), while the adjustable air cushion at both ends decelerates the piston near stroke ends. The cushion is not a brake, and the cylinder will drift on air loss—use an external rod lock to hold a load.
