About the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X65-20S
Dial in the forward stop on-site without swapping hardware: the MICJ16X65-20S uses an external screw to shorten the extend stroke by up to 20 mm, giving a usable forward range of 45-65 mm. A needle-set variable air cushion at both ends soaks up high-speed shock, letting you set the position and control the impact. As a double-acting round-body mini cylinder with a stainless-steel barrel and rod, it resists mild corrosion and washdown. The -S suffix means a built-in piston magnet is present for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches.
Built to the ISO 6432 mini-cylinder mounting interface for Ø16, this riveted stainless unit pushes 100.5 N and pulls 86.4 N at 0.5 MPa. The stop screw sets the end position but is not a mid-stroke lock; the piston will drift on air loss, so use an external rod lock or pilot check valve to hold a suspended load.

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 MICJ16X65-20S Is Used
Light-Part Ejection
Shoots small plastic parts out of a mold at speed, using the 20 mm extend trim to hit the exact drop point while the air cushion prevents end-of-stroke slamming.
Sensor Actuation
Tripper arm for testing stations that needs a 45-65 mm adjustable forward reach, relying on the -S magnet and DMSG switch to confirm the extend position.
Is the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X65-20S the Right Cylinder?
For lighter moves, the smaller ISO 6432 bores in the MIJ series rely on a fixed bumper rather than an adjustable air cushion, so the MICJ16 is the smallest size offering both on-site extend trimming and needle-set shock absorption. If you need more push, stepping up to the Ø20 bore raises the 0.5 MPa push force from 100.5 N to 157.0 N. Choose this 16 mm bore when your payload is around 60 N and you need precise end-position tuning at speed.
The external screw trims the extend stroke only; retract remains the full 65 mm. Mount via standard LB foot, FA flange or TC trunnion brackets, noting the SDB pivot-block is not available on this adjustable variant. Because this SKU includes the -S magnet, you can directly fit CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensors for position detection.
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 MICJ16X65-20S 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. This 16 mm bore cylinder uses an M5×0.8 air port and a 6 mm piston rod.
An external screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 20 mm on-site, while the retract stroke remains fixed at 65 mm. Needle valves adjust the variable air cushion at both ends to decelerate the piston before impact. The -S suffix indicates a built-in magnet for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensors.
