The AirTAC Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ20X300-40 is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø20mm bore and 300mm 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 MICJ20X300-40, a stainless-steel round-body mini cylinder that shortens the extend stroke by up to 40 mm via an external screw. The 300 mm nominal extend retracts fully, while a needle-adjustable air cushion at both ends soaks up high-speed shock for smooth deceleration.
Built with a 20 mm bore and 1/8" port, it delivers 157 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, making its safe working load roughly 94 N or about 8 kg of vertical lift with a 2:1 margin. The stainless barrel and rod resist mild corrosion and washdown. This SKU lacks a magnet and cannot take sensors; adding the -S variant enables CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches.

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.
Trim the extend stroke up to 40 mm to position a diverting flap exactly over a conveyor lane, using the 157 N push force to move light aluminum gates reliably.
Use the adjustable air cushion to decelerate the 300 mm stroke smoothly at high cycling speeds, preventing impact damage when halting small cartons on a line.
Leverage the stainless steel construction for mildly corrosive environments, pressing lightweight pins with a safe working load of about 94 N without swapping cylinders for depth tweaks.
For lighter moves, the 16 mm bore offers 100.5 N push at 0.5 MPa, while heavier setups can step up to the 25 mm bore with 245.3 N. This 20 mm bore fits ISO 6432 mini-cylinder mounting interfaces using LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion brackets, but the SDB pivot-block is not available on this adjustable variant. The external screw sets the forward end position but does not lock mid-stroke; the piston drifts on air loss, so add an external rod lock or pilot check valve for held loads.
Quick checklist
This 20 mm bore cylinder features a 1/8" port and an M8x1.25 male rod thread. 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 end position by up to 40 mm on site, while needle valves tune the air cushion at both ends to absorb high-speed shock. The cushion only decelerates near stroke end and does not lock the piston; on air loss the cylinder drifts, so use an external rod lock for holding. This non-S SKU cannot take magnetic sensors.
