The AirTAC Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ25X250-40 is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø25mm 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.
Trim the forward stop by up to 40 mm on site without swapping cylinders: the AirTAC MICJ25X250-40 is a double-acting, round-body stainless-steel mini cylinder with an adjustable extend stroke (usable forward range 210-250 mm) and an adjustable air cushion at both ends. The external screw sets the extend end position, while the cushion needles soak up high-speed shock. Retract remains a full 250 mm stroke. Built with a stainless barrel and Ø10 mm piston rod, it resists mild corrosion and washdown environments. It uses the ISO 6432 mounting interface for standard mini brackets and features a 1/8" port.
Delivering 245.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this bore size handles solid mid-range workloads. A practical safe working load is about 147 N, which means it can vertically lift roughly 12.5 kg with a 2:1 safety margin. Note that this specific SKU lacks a magnet (-S), so it cannot host CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors. The cushion only decelerates the piston near the stroke end; it is not a mid-stroke lock or brake.

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.
Pushes packages at the end of a 250 mm stroke, using the 40 mm extend adjustment to fine-tune the contact point without moving the bracket.
Cycles rapidly to fold flaps; the dual adjustable air cushions absorb the impact at both ends to prevent crushing the 12.5 kg load.
Drives a machining fixture forward, dialing the extend stop in 1 mm increments to accommodate different part widths on the line.
When sizing this 25 mm bore, stepping down to a 20 mm MICJ drops the 0.5 MPa push force to 157 N, while stepping up to a 32 mm bore increases it to 402 N. Choose this model when you need a long 250 mm reach combined with a 40 mm on-site extend adjustment to dial in a precise forward stop for high-speed actuation. The dual adjustable air cushions are essential for absorbing kinetic energy at the end of this long travel. Mount using LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion brackets; the SDB pivot-block is not available on this adjustable-stroke variant.
Because a standard pneumatic cylinder does not hold position on air loss, the piston will drift if pressure drops or the valve is centered. The external stop screw and air cushion decelerate the load but do not function as a mid-stroke lock or brake. If your application requires the load to be physically held in place, add an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve to the system.
Quick checklist
This 25 mm bore cylinder has a 1/8" air port. At 0.5 MPa it provides 245.3 N push and 206.1 N pull force. At 0.7 MPa it provides 343.4 N push and 288.5 N pull. The theoretical maximum force is 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
An external stop screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 40 mm (usable forward range 210-250 mm), while the retract stroke remains fixed at 250 mm. Adjustable air cushions at both ends use needle valves to decelerate the piston at high speed. This SKU has no -S magnet and cannot take sensors; it is not a mid-stroke lock.
