About the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ40X160-50
Dial in a precise forward stop without swapping hardware using the AirTAC MICJ40X160-50, a round-body stainless-steel mini cylinder with an on-site extend adjustment of up to 50 mm. This double-acting actuator pairs that variable end-position screw with a needle-adjustable air cushion at both ends, letting you set the exact extend endpoint from 110 to 160 mm while soaking up high-speed impact shock.
It uses a 1/4" port and an M12x1.25 male rod thread. Note this is a non-ISO-6432 round-body size, and because this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot host CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors.

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 MICJ40X160-50 Is Used
Heavy Carton Diversion
Pushes heavy cartons at high speed on a packaging line, using the 50 mm extend adjustment to dial in the exact push distance while the dual air cushions absorb the impact.
Component Press Fit
Presses bearings or pins into assemblies, using the on-site extend stop to set a precise 120 mm forward position without re-engineering the fixture.
Is the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ40X160-50 the Right Cylinder?
The external stop screw and dual cushions shine in fast set-position moves where you must tune the extend endpoint and decelerate smoothly.
Remember that the stop screw sets the end position but does not function as a mid-stroke lock. The cylinder will drift on air loss, so add an external rod lock or pilot check valve for held loads. For mounting, choose LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion (SDB pivot-block is unavailable here), and select the -S magnet version if you need position sensing.
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 MICJ40X160-50 FAQ
This double-acting cylinder features a 1/4" port and an M12x1.25 male rod thread.
An external screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 50 mm on-site, while needle valves adjust the air cushions at both ends to decelerate high-speed moves. This cylinder cannot hold a load on air loss and will drift; use an external rod lock for holding. Also, this non-magnet SKU cannot take sensors.
