The AirTAC MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ40X100-20S 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.
Dial in a precise forward stop on-site with the AirTAC MICJ40X100-20S, a round-body stainless-steel mini cylinder featuring a 20 mm adjustable extend stroke. An external screw trims the forward end position down from the 100 mm nominal stroke, while a needle-set variable air cushion at both ends soaks up high-speed shock.
The stainless barrel and rod resist mild corrosion and washdown environments. Because this is an -S SKU, it includes a built-in piston magnet for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors. Keep in mind the stop screw sets the end position but is not a mid-stroke lock; the piston will drift on air loss, so add an external rod lock or pilot check valve for held loads.

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).

|---|---|
| 40 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×100 | Stroke length in mm. |
| -20 | Adjustable stroke window (mm the extend stroke can be shortened on site). |

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.
Shift heavier cartons on a 1/4" port pneumatic diverter, using the 20 mm extend adjuster to set the exact push distance and the air cushion to absorb the impact of fast 628.3 N strokes.
Execute light-duty press operations by tuning the forward stop down from 100 mm, allowing precise depth control for component seating without needing custom spacers.
If your application requires less force, dropping down to the 32 mm bore reduces push output to 402.2 N. The 20 mm extend adjuster and dual air cushions are ideal for fast, repeatable set-position moves where you need to tune the impact without swapping physical components.
Mount this actuator using LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion brackets; the SDB pivot-block is not available on this adjustable variant. The -S magnet enables position sensing with CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. Remember that the air cushion only decelerates near the stroke end and does not function as a brake.
Quick checklist
This 40 mm bore double-acting cylinder uses a 1/4" air port. The theoretical maximum force is 128.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
An external screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 20 mm on-site, while the needle-set variable air cushion at both ends decelerates the piston to absorb high-speed shock. The -S designation means it has a built-in magnet for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors. The cushion only decelerates near the end of travel and does not act as a mid-stroke lock; the piston will drift on air loss, so use an external rod lock for holding.
