About the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X80-40
Dial in a precise forward stop on-site with the AirTAC MICJ16X80-40, a stainless-steel round-body mini cylinder that shortens the extend stroke by up to 40 mm via an external screw. The retract stroke remains fixed at the full 80 mm, while the adjustable end position lets you set exact reach without swapping hardware.
Built with a riveted stainless barrel and rod, this 16 mm bore unit resists mild corrosion and handles speeds from 30-800 mm/s. A needle-set variable air cushion at both ends soaks up high-speed shock to protect your tooling. It uses the ISO 6432 mounting interface and an M5×0.8 port. This SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot take a sensor; adding the -S option enables CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches.

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 MICJ16X80-40 Is Used
Light Part Ejection
Tune the needle air cushion to softly eject 5 kg assemblies at high speed, preventing impact damage at the end of the 80 mm stroke.
Lab Dispensing
Set an exact forward stop for a dispensing head, using the washdown-resistant stainless body to handle mildly corrosive environments.
Is the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ16X80-40 the Right Cylinder?
For lighter tasks, the MIJ series offers a bumper-only design without air cushions, whereas stepping up to the MICJ 20 mm bore raises the 0.5 MPa push force to 157 N. Use this model when you need fast, repeatable set-position moves and want to tune the impact deceleration.
The external stop screw sets the extend end position but is not a mid-stroke lock; the cylinder will drift on air loss, so add an external rod lock or pilot check valve to hold a suspended load. You can mount it using LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion brackets, plus CA, U, R, or CM back covers (the SDB pivot-block is not available on this adjustable variant).
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 MICJ16X80-40 FAQ
An external screw shortens the extend end position by up to 40 mm, while the needle-set air cushion decelerates the piston near stroke ends. The stop screw is not a mid-stroke lock; the piston drifts on air loss, so use a pilot check valve for load holding. This non-S SKU lacks a magnet for sensors.
