The AirTAC MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ40X160-100 is a genuine double acting, double rod, adjustable stroke + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 160mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and a stainless-steel barrel and rod for mildly corrosive environments.
Trim the forward stop by up to 100 mm on site without swapping hardware using this AirTAC MICJ40X160-100 round-body mini cylinder. The external screw shortens the extend end position, while a needle-set air cushion at both ends absorbs high-speed shock. Built with a stainless-steel barrel and rod, it resists mild corrosion and handles washdown environments. Because this SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors.
The Ø40 bore exceeds the ISO 6432 mounting interface, classifying it strictly as a non-ISO round-body unit. Operating pressure spans 0.15 to 1.0 MPa, with piston speeds from 30 to 800 mm/s.

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.

| 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.
Divert robust packages on a high-throughput line at up to 800 mm/s, relying on the dual adjustable air cushions to decelerate the 40 mm bore smoothly and prevent impact damage.
Halt incoming pallets at a packaging station by setting a custom forward stop position, absorbing the kinetic energy through the needle-controlled extend cushion.
The MICJ40X160-100 is ideal when you need the maximum 128.1 kgf theoretical output alongside a tunable extend stop. The 100 mm adjustment window lets you dial in the exact forward position for varying part sizes, and the dual adjustable cushions prevent end-of-stroke banging during rapid 800 mm/s cycles. Mount using LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion brackets, noting that the SDB pivot block is not offered on this adjustable variant. Remember that the stop screw sets the end position but does not function as a mid-stroke lock; the piston will drift on air loss, so add an external rod lock or pilot check valve for suspended loads.
Quick checklist
This double-acting cylinder uses a 1/4" air port and a 16 mm piston rod with an M12x1.25 male thread.
An external stop screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 100 mm, giving a usable forward range of 60 to 160 mm; the retract stroke remains full. Needle valves control the adjustable air cushions at both ends to decelerate the piston near the end of travel. This unit has no -S magnet, so it cannot accept position sensors, and the cushion only slows the piston rather than locking it mid-stroke.
