The AirTAC Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ20X160-75 is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø20mm bore and 160mm 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-site with the AirTAC MICJ20X160-75, a stainless-steel round-body mini cylinder that shortens the extend stroke by up to 75 mm via an external screw. Because it is double-acting and built to the ISO 6432 mounting interface, it drops directly into standard mini brackets while delivering 157 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. The 1/8" port and M8x1.25 male rod thread keep pneumatic and mechanical integration simple.
Taming high-speed motion is handled by a needle-adjustable air cushion at both ends, soaking up impact shock without relying on a fixed bumper. This SKU omits the internal magnet, so it cannot host CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors; choose an -S variant if position feedback is required. For vertical moves, expect a safe working load of roughly 94 N, moving about 8 kg with a 2:1 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.
Fine-tune the 75 mm extend stop to route packages of varying sizes on a conveyor without changing the cylinder mount.
Leverage the 157 N push force to hold thin workpieces securely, relying on the dual air cushions to prevent end-of-stroke impact.
Lower an 8 kg fixture smoothly using the adjustable extend stroke, letting the needle cushion absorb the downward momentum.
When sizing this 20 mm bore, step down to the 16 mm version (100.5 N push @0.5 MPa) for lighter tooling, or move up to the 25 mm bore (245.3 N push @0.5 MPa) if you need to overcome higher friction. The 75 mm extend adjuster is ideal for fast, settable-position moves where you need to tune the forward endpoint on the fly without swapping hardware. You can mount via LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion, but note the SDB pivot-block is not offered on this adjustable-stroke build. Remember that the air cushion only decelerates the load near the stroke end; the piston will drift on air loss, so fit an external rod lock or pilot check valve if you need to hold a suspended load.
Quick checklist
This 20 mm bore cylinder features a 1/8" port and delivers 157 N push / 131.9 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 219.8 N push / 184.7 N pull at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical max of 32 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
An external screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 75 mm (usable range 85-160 mm), while needle valves adjust the air cushions at both ends to decelerate high-speed moves. This non-S SKU lacks a magnet for sensors, and because the cushion only slows the piston near stroke end, you need an external rod lock to hold a load on air loss.
