The AirTAC MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ40X100-30S 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 70 to 100 mm forward stop on site with the AirTAC MICJ40X100-30S, a stainless-steel round-body mini cylinder that shortens the extend stroke by up to 30 mm via an external screw. The built-in needle-adjustable air cushions at both ends soak up high-speed shock, letting you set the exact end position while controlling impact. A trailing -S in the code means this unit includes a piston magnet for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensors.
The stainless barrel and rod resist mild corrosion and washdown environments.

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).

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.
Pushes heavy cartons at high speed on a packaging line, using the 30 mm extend trim to dial in the exact push distance while the dual air cushions absorb the shock.
Acts as a robust stop gate for heavy pallets, where the stainless construction handles mild washdown and the adjustable forward stop fine-tunes the blocking position.
This 40 mm bore provides the highest thrust in the MICJ family, pushing 628.3 N at 0.5 MPa. If your application needs less force, stepping down to the 32 mm bore drops the push force to 402.2 N; there is no larger standard bore available. The adjustable forward stop and dual air cushions shine in fast set-position moves where you must tune the impact without swapping hardware.
Remember that the stop screw sets the end position but does not lock the rod mid-stroke, and the air cushion only decelerates near the end of travel. If you need to hold a load vertically on air loss, add an external rod lock or pilot check valve. For mounting, choose LB foot, FA flange or TC trunnion (SDB is not offered), and use the -S magnet to fit your reed or electronic switches.
Quick checklist
The theoretical maximum force is 128.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
An external screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 30 mm, while needle valves adjust the air cushion at both ends to decelerate the piston before impact. The cushion only slows the rod near the end of travel; it does not lock or hold the load on air loss, so you need an external rod lock for vertical holding. The -S suffix means it has a magnet for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensors.
