The AirTAC Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ25X250-40S 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 hardware: the MICJ25X250-40S is a double-acting, round-body stainless-steel mini cylinder with an adjustable extend stroke and needle-set air cushions at both ends. The external screw shortens the extend end position from its 250 mm nominal maximum down to 210 mm, while the retract stroke remains full. An adjustable air cushion soaks up high-speed shock at the stroke ends, letting you dial in the exact forward position and control the impact.
Built with a stainless barrel and piston rod for mild corrosion and washdown resistance, this Ø25 bore unit pushes with 245.3 N and pulls with 206.1 N at 0.5 MPa. The built-in magnet (-S) supports CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG position switches. It uses the ISO 6432 mini-cylinder mounting interface and a 1/8" port. For a safe working load, expect around 147 N, which translates to a vertical lift of about 12.5 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.
Dial in the 210 to 250 mm extend position to push varying box sizes onto a conveyor, using the 245.3 N push force and needle cushions to absorb the high-speed impact.
Safely lift and divert 12.5 kg loads using the 2:1 safety margin, relying on the stainless construction for washdown resistance in packaging lines.
Set the exact 40 mm forward adjustment for delicate clamping tasks, letting the adjustable air cushion soak up end-of-stroke shock without damaging the part.
When sizing this unit, compare the forces both ways: stepping down to a Ø20 bore drops the 0.5 MPa push force to 157 N, while stepping up to a Ø32 bore increases it to 402 N. Choose this Ø25 model when you need roughly 147 N of safe working force combined with a highly specific extend endpoint. The 40 mm external stop adjustment is ideal for fast set-position moves where you need to tune the forward travel on the fly, and the dual adjustable cushions handle the resulting high-speed impacts.
For mounting, you can use LB foot brackets, FA flanges, or TC trunnions alongside back covers like CA, U, R, or CM, but note the SDB pivot-block is not available on this adjustable variant. Remember that the stop screw and air cushion only decelerate the piston near the stroke end; they do not function as a mid-stroke lock. If your application must hold a load vertically on air loss, add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve.
Quick checklist
This Ø25 mm cylinder features a 1/8" port and an M10x1.25 male rod thread. At 0.5 MPa it pushes with 245.3 N and pulls with 206.1 N. At 0.7 MPa the push is 343.4 N and pull is 288.5 N. The theoretical maximum force is 50 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
An external screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 40 mm on site, while needle valves adjust the air cushion at both ends to decelerate the piston at high speed. The -S suffix means a piston magnet is built in, allowing you to mount CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors for position detection.
