The AirTAC Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ20X125-30S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø20mm bore and 125mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a stainless-steel barrel and rod for mildly corrosive environments. Its ISO 6432 mounting interface makes it a compact drop-in for standard mini-cylinder fixtures.
Dial in a precise forward stop on the fly with the AirTAC MICJ20X125-30S, a double-acting stainless steel round-body mini cylinder. An external screw shortens the extend end position by up to 30 mm on site, giving a usable forward range of 95-125 mm without swapping hardware. Needle-set adjustable air cushions at both ends soak up high-speed shock, letting you set the position and control the impact simultaneously. The unit operates at 30-800 mm/s and features a 1/8" port.
Built with a stainless barrel and rod, this riveted construction resists mild corrosion and handles washdown environments. It generates 157 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, yielding a safe working load of roughly 94 N or a vertical lift of about 8 kg with a 2:1 margin. The -S suffix denotes a built-in piston magnet for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensors. It uses the ISO 6432 mounting interface for standard mini brackets.

Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a safety margin.

MI-family variants: MI / MIC (double acting ±cushion), MSI / MTI (single acting push / pull), MID / MICD (double rod ±cushion), MIJ / MICJ (adjustable stroke ±cushion). Back covers CA / U / R / CM. Mounting LB / FA / SDB / TC.
Tune the 95-125 mm extend stop to push varying box sizes onto a side lane, using the air cushion to absorb impact at high cycling speeds.
Apply a precise 157 N push force to seat electronic components, dialing in the exact forward position without reprogramming the machine.
Fold carton flaps at speed; the stainless build handles light washdown while the dual cushions prevent rod bounce at stroke end.
When sizing this 20 mm bore, step down to the 16 mm bore for lighter loads (100.5 N push @0.5 MPa) or up to the 25 mm bore for heavier tasks (245.3 N push @0.5 MPa). The 30 mm extend adjuster paired with dual air cushions is perfect for fast set-position moves where you need to tune out end-of-stroke shock. Choose LB foot, FA flange or TC trunnion mounts, noting the SDB pivot-block is not offered on this adjustable variant. Add CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches using the -S magnet.
Remember the stop screw sets the end position but is not a mid-stroke lock. A plain cylinder does not hold its load on air loss; the piston drifts and the cushion only decelerates near the stroke end. For a held load, specify an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve.
Quick checklist
This 20 mm bore cylinder has a 1/8" port and generates 157 N push / 131.9 N pull at 0.5 MPa, and 219.8 N push / 184.7 N pull at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical maximum force is 32 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
An external stop screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 30 mm (retract remains full). Needle valves adjust the air cushion at both ends to decelerate the piston near stroke end. The -S denotes a built-in magnet for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensors.
