About the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X80-20S
Trim the forward stroke by up to 20 mm on site with an external stop screw, and soak up high-speed shock using the adjustable air cushion at both ends of this stainless-steel round-body mini cylinder. The MICJ16X80-20S is a double-acting actuator with a built-in piston magnet (-S) for position sensing. It conforms to the ISO 6432 mounting interface for straightforward bracket interchangeability on bores Ø16 to Ø25.
The M5×0.8 port and M6x1.0 male rod thread keep the envelope compact, while the stainless barrel and rod resist mild washdown corrosion. The stop screw sets the extend end position only; it is not a mid-stroke lock.

| 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.
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 MICJ16X80-20S Is Used
Lab Dispensing
Leverage the stainless construction and ISO 6432 interface for compact washdown cells, using the -S magnet with a DMSG sensor to verify fluid valve actuation.
Is the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X80-20S the Right Cylinder?
For lighter duties, the MIJ bumper-only series offers less force, whereas stepping up to a Ø20 MICJ raises the 0.5 MPa push force to 157 N for stiffer actuation. Choose this Ø16 model when you need precise set-position moves at speed, as the needle cushion absorbs impact while the external screw dials in the exact forward stop. The -S magnet enables CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors for end-of-stroke confirmation.
Mount using LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion brackets; the SDB pivot block is not available on adjustable-stroke variants. Remember that air pressure drives motion but does not hold position on air loss—the piston will drift. For a suspended load, fit an external rod lock or pilot check valve.
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 MICJ16X80-20S FAQ
This double-acting cylinder pushes with 100.5 N and pulls with 86.4 N at 0.5 MPa. At 0.7 MPa, push is 140.7 N and pull is 120.9 N. The theoretical max force is 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa, and the air port size is M5×0.8.
An external screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 20 mm, while the adjustable air cushion at both ends decelerates the piston near the end of travel. The -S magnet allows CMSG, DMSG, and 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.
