The AirTAC Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ32X175-40S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 175mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a stainless-steel barrel and rod for mildly corrosive environments.
Dial in the forward stop on-site without swapping hardware: the AirTAC MICJ32X175-40S uses an external screw to shorten the extend stroke by up to 40 mm, giving a usable forward range of 135-175 mm while retract remains full. This 32 mm round-body stainless steel mini cylinder pairs that set-position flexibility with an adjustable air cushion at both ends, soaking up high-speed shock as the piston reaches its trimmed destination.
Built with a riveted stainless barrel and rod for mild washdown resistance, this double-acting unit delivers 402.2 N of push force at 0.5 MPa (345.6 N pull). For practical sizing, that translates to a safe working load of roughly 241 N, or vertically lifting about 20.5 kg with a 2:1 safety margin. It features a 1/8" port, an M10x1.25 male rod thread, and a built-in magnet (-S) for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors.

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.

| 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.

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 175 mm extend stroke down by up to 40 mm to hit the exact seating depth for a 20 kg bearing housing, letting the dual air cushions absorb the high-speed impact without slamming.
Adjust the forward stop on the fly to push different carton sizes across a 1/8" port pneumatic line, using the 402.2 N push force to positively redirect items without changing cylinders.
Set the extend end precisely for varying box heights and rely on the needle-set air cushions to decelerate the 32 mm piston smoothly, preventing crush damage at cycling speeds up to 800 mm/s.
When sizing this 402.2 N @0.5 MPa unit, step down to the 25 mm bore if your load is under 245.3 N push, or move up to the 40 mm bore (628.3 N push) if you need extra thrust. The 40 mm extend adjuster is ideal for fast set-position moves where you need precise forward stops without machining spacers. Remember that the stop screw sets the end position but is not a mid-stroke lock; the air cushion only decelerates near the end. If the application requires the load to hold on air loss, add an external rod lock or pilot check valve. Mount via LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion (SDB is not offered on this adjustable variant), and use the -S magnet to fit CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches.
Quick checklist
This 32 mm bore cylinder features a 1/8" port and an M10x1.25 male rod thread. It generates 402.2 N push and 345.6 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 563 N push and 483.8 N pull at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical maximum of 82 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
An external screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 40 mm on-site (usable forward range 135-175 mm); retract remains full. Needle valves adjust the air cushion at both ends to decelerate the piston near stroke end. The -S suffix means it has a built-in magnet for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors.
