Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ20X15-20S
The AirTAC Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ20X15-20S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø20mm bore and 15mm 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.

About the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ20X15-20S
Trim the forward stop by up to 20 mm on site with the AirTAC MICJ20X15-20S, a stainless-steel round-body mini cylinder that pairs an adjustable extend stroke with needle-set air cushions at both ends. The external screw lets you dial in a precise 0-15 mm extend position without swapping hardware, while the cushions absorb high-speed impact. Driven by a 1/8" port and an Ø8 rod, this double-acting ISO 6432 unit delivers 157 N of push force at 0.5 MPa.
The built-in piston magnet (-S) supports CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG switches for exact position detection. Because the stainless barrel and rod resist mild corrosion, it suits washdown environments. For sizing, expect a safe working load around 94 N, which translates to lifting roughly 8 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. The stop screw sets the end position but is not a mid-stroke lock; use an external rod lock if you need to hold a load on air loss.

Where the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ20X15-20S Is Used
Short-Stroke Clamping
Clamp small parts precisely using the 0-15 mm adjustable extend stop, relying on the 157 N push force to hold components securely during machining.
Gate Diverting
Actuate a lightweight conveyor diverter gate; the dual air cushions absorb the shock of rapid 15 mm strokes, preventing bounce at high speeds.
Product Ejector
Push lightweight cartons off a packaging line with a safe working load of 94 N, fine-tuning the extend distance on-site to match varying box sizes.
Is the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ20X15-20S the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 20 mm bore, step down to an Ø16 bore for lighter loads (100.5 N push @0.5 MPa) or step up to an Ø25 bore (245.3 N push @0.5 MPa) if you need more thrust. The MICJ20X15-20S shines in fast, settable-position moves where the adjustable forward stop and dual air cushions prevent end-of-stroke shock. Mount using LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion brackets—note that the SDB pivot block is not offered on this adjustable variant. Position sensing requires the included -S magnet to pair with CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches.
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 MICJ20X15-20S FAQ
This 20 mm bore cylinder uses a 1/8" port and an Ø8 rod. It generates 157 N push and 131.9 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 219.8 N push and 184.7 N pull at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical maximum of 32 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
An external screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 20 mm, letting you set a precise forward end position. Needle-set air cushions at both ends decelerate the piston at high speeds. The -S suffix means it has a built-in magnet for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors.
