The AirTAC MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ40X100-20 is a genuine double acting, double rod, adjustable stroke + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 100mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and a stainless-steel barrel and rod for mildly corrosive environments.
Trim the forward stop by up to 20 mm on site without swapping hardware using the AirTAC MICJ40X100-20. This double-acting round-body mini cylinder pairs that external extend adjuster with a needle-set variable air cushion at both ends to soak up high-speed shock.
Built with a stainless-steel barrel and piston rod, it resists mild corrosion and washdown environments. It features a 1/4" air port, an M12x1.25 male rod thread, and operates at speeds from 30 to 800 mm/s. Note this non-magnetic SKU cannot take a sensor; the -S variant is required for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches.

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 Ø40 bore is a larger, non-ISO-6432 size.
| Pressure | Force (both ways) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 528 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 739 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 108 kgf |
MIJ / MICJ are double-rod: the rear rod that carries the stroke adjuster exits the rear cover, so both piston faces lose rod area. The rod-side (annular) area is used for both directions (conservative).
| MICJ | round-body mini cylinder (adjustable-stroke, variable cushion). |
|---|---|
| 40 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×100 | Stroke length in mm. |
| -20 | 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 (double rod, adjustable stroke ±cushion). Back covers CA / U / R / CM. Mounting LB / FA / SDB / TC.
Diverts dense cartons at high cycle speeds, relying on the adjustable air cushions to decelerate the 40 mm piston smoothly and prevent end-cap shock.
Applies 32 kg of vertical clamping force for carton sealing, using the external screw to fine-tune the downstroke position for varying package heights.
The 20 mm extend adjuster is ideal for fast set-position moves where you need to dial in the exact 80-100 mm forward stop while the dual cushions control impact.
Mount using LB foot, FA flange or TC trunnion brackets (SDB pivot-block is not available on this adjustable variant). The stop screw sets the end position but is not a mid-stroke lock; this cylinder will drift on air loss. Use an external rod lock or pilot check valve for held loads.
Quick checklist
This 40 mm bore double-acting cylinder pushes 628.3 N and pulls 527.8 N at 0.5 MPa. At 0.7 MPa it pushes 879.6 N and pulls 738.9 N. The theoretical max force is 128.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It uses a 1/4" air port and an M12x1.25 male rod thread.
An external screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 20 mm, letting you set the forward end position on site. Needle-set variable air cushions at both ends decelerate the piston near stroke end to absorb high-speed shock. The cylinder does not hold position on air loss and will drift; use an external rod lock for holding. This non-S SKU cannot take a sensor.
