About the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ40X160-100S
Trim the forward stop by up to 100 mm on site without swapping hardware: the AirTAC MICJ40X160-100S is a double-acting, round-body stainless-steel mini cylinder with an adjustable extend stroke and a needle-set air cushion at both ends. The external screw shortens the extend end position only (usable forward travel 60-160 mm), while the dual cushions soak up high-speed shock. It is not a tie-rod or extruded-profile build, and the stainless barrel and rod shrug off mild washdown corrosion.
At the 40 mm bore, this unit pushes with 628.3 N and pulls with 527.8 N at 0.5 MPa, peaking at a theoretical 128.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The 1/4" port feeds the chamber efficiently, and because this SKU carries the -S suffix, a built-in piston magnet is ready for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position switches.

| Port size | 1/4" |
| Rod thread | M12×1.25 |
| Fluid | Air (filtered by 40µm element) |
|---|---|
| Operating pressure | 0.15 – 1.0 MPa |
| Proof pressure | 1.5 MPa |
| Temperature | -20 to +70 °C |
| Speed range | 30 – 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.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø40mm)
| 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).

Where the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ40X160-100S Is Used
Press Fit Dialing
Dial in the exact 60 to 160 mm extend position for seating bearings, using the 100 mm adjuster to change depths on the fly without retooling the press head.
Vertical Lift Gate
Lift a 32 kg pallet stop gate at speed, knowing the needle cushions will decelerate the load smoothly before it reaches the mechanical end stop.
Is the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ40X160-100S the Right Cylinder?
There is no larger standard MICJ bore, so for loads exceeding this output you will need an external rod lock or a different cylinder family entirely.
The adjustable forward stop plus dual air cushions shine in fast set-position moves where you must dial in the exact landing point and decelerate smoothly. Remember that the stop screw sets the end position but is not a mid-stroke lock, and the cylinder will drift on air loss—use a pilot-operated check valve if you need to hold a suspended load. Mount using LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion brackets (the SDB pivot block is not offered on this adjustable variant), and pair it with CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors via the included magnet.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT / G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Back cover (CA/U/R/CM) & mount (LB/FA/SDB/TC)
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Do not dismantle the riveted front/back covers.
- check Use correct back cover (CA/U/R/CM) & mount (LB/FA/SDB/TC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ40X160-100S FAQ
This 40 mm bore cylinder features a 1/4" air port and a 16 mm rod with an M12x1.25 male thread.
An external screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 100 mm, letting you set the forward end position on-site, while a needle valve adjusts the air cushion at both ends to decelerate high-speed moves (30-800 mm/s). The -S suffix means a built-in magnet is included for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors; the cushion only decelerates and does not lock the load.
