The AirTAC Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ20X250-30S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø20mm bore and 250mm 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 MICJ20X250-30S, a double-acting stainless-steel round-body mini cylinder. An external screw shortens the extend end position by up to 30 mm, giving a usable forward range of 220-250 mm without swapping hardware. Needle-set air cushions at both ends soak up high-speed shock, letting you set the position and control the impact simultaneously.
Built to the ISO 6432 mounting interface, this Ø20 bore drops into standard mini brackets and delivers 157 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. The stainless barrel and rod resist mild corrosion and washdown environments. Because this SKU includes the -S magnet, it is fully ready for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG position switches. It uses a 1/8" port and an M8x1.25 male rod thread.

| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 32 kgf | |
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.
Trims the 250 mm extend stroke by 30 mm to hit a diverter flap perfectly, while the dual air cushions absorb shock from 800 mm/s high-speed sorting runs.
Provides 157 N of push to fold light cardboard flaps. The built-in -S magnet works with DMSG sensors to confirm flap position in washdown-resistant stainless builds.
Ejects 8 kg parts vertically using the 0.5 MPa push force. The adjustable forward stop prevents over-travel, tuning the ejection distance without changing mounts.
For lighter tasks, the Ø16 bore outputs 100.5 N push at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to the Ø25 bore yields 245.3 N if you need more muscle. The Ø20 hits a sweet spot: its 157 N push translates to a safe working load of about 94 N, or a vertical lift of roughly 8 kg with a 2:1 safety margin. The 30 mm extend adjuster and dual air cushions excel in fast, settable-position moves.
Remember that the stop screw sets only the end position and the cushions merely decelerate; neither acts as a mid-stroke lock. The piston will drift on air loss, so fit an external rod lock or pilot check valve to hold a suspended load. You can use LB foot, FA flange or TC trunnion mounts, but the SDB pivot-block is not offered on this adjustable variant.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it provides 157 N push and 131.9 N pull. At 0.7 MPa it provides 219.8 N push and 184.7 N pull. The theoretical maximum force is 32 kgf at 1.0 MPa. This Ø20 bore cylinder uses a 1/8" air port and an Ø8 mm piston rod with an M8x1.25 male thread.
An external stop screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 30 mm (usable range 220-250 mm); retract remains full. Needle valves adjust the air cushions at both ends to decelerate the piston before impact. The -S suffix means a piston magnet is built-in for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensors. The stop screw is an end-position adjuster, not a mid-stroke lock.
