The AirTAC Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ32X160-10 is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 160mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a stainless-steel barrel and rod for mildly corrosive environments.
Dial in the forward stop without swapping hardware: the AirTAC MICJ32X160-10 uses an external screw to shorten the extend end position by up to 10 mm on site, yielding a usable forward travel of 150-160 mm. Retract remains full, and the adjustable air cushion at both ends soaks up high-speed shock so you set the position and control the impact.
This 32 mm round-body stainless-steel mini cylinder delivers 402.2 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (563 N at 0.7 MPa) and ports via 1/8" thread. It yields a safe working load of roughly 241 N, moving about 20.5 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. Note this non-magnet SKU cannot take CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors; the -S variant is required for position detection.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC MI/MIC (ISO 6432) datasheet. Barrel & rod: stainless steel (round-body, riveted construction). Thread options: PT (blank) / G. Note: the Ø32 bore is a larger, non-ISO-6432 size.
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 402 N | 346 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 563 N | 484 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 82 kgf | |
Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a safety margin.

|---|---|
| 32 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×160 | Stroke length in mm. |
| -10 | Adjustable stroke window (mm the extend stroke can be shortened on site). |
| -S | Optional built-in magnet for CMSG / DMSG / EMSG sensors. |
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 10 mm extend stop to seat a 20 kg bearing precisely, letting the dual air cushions absorb the 563 N high-speed impact without slamming.
Act as a robust end-stop for larger 32 mm bore conveyor goods, using the adjustable forward position to sync perfectly with the packaging pitch.
Raise loaded pallets vertically and rely on the needle-set cushion to decelerate the 160 mm stroke smoothly, preventing shock damage to the stainless rod.
When sizing this 402.2 N @0.5 MPa unit, step down to a 25 mm bore (245.3 N push) if your load is lighter, or up to a 40 mm bore (628.3 N push) for heavier moves. The 10 mm extend trim shines in fast set-position routines where you must nudge the endpoint precisely without re-engineering the fixture.
Mount via LB foot, FA flange or TC trunnion (SDB pivot-block is unavailable on this adjustable variant). The stop screw and cushion only decelerate near stroke end; they do not lock the piston. If you need to hold a load on air loss, add an external rod lock or pilot check valve.
Quick checklist
This 32 mm bore cylinder ports via 1/8" thread and delivers 402.2 N push / 345.6 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 563 N push / 483.8 N pull at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical max of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
An external screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 10 mm (retract is unaffected), while needle valves tune the air cushion at both ends to absorb high-speed shock. The cylinder does not hold position on air loss; use an external rod lock for that. This non-S SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot take sensors.
