About the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ40X175-50
Dial in the exact forward stop on-site with the AirTAC MICJ40X175-50, a double-acting round-body stainless steel mini cylinder featuring a 50 mm extend adjustment window. An external stop screw trims the forward end position down from the 175 mm nominal maximum to 125 mm, while the retract stroke remains full length.
Beyond setting the extend endpoint, this unit integrates a variable air cushion at both ends to soak up high-speed kinetic shock without fixed bumpers. The stainless barrel and rod resist mild corrosion and washdown environments. Note this is a non-ISO-6432 Ø40 bore. This specific SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors; choose the -S variant if position sensing is required.

| 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 MICJ40X175-50 Is Used
Heavy Carton Diversion
Pushes heavy cartons at high speed on a packaging line, using the 50 mm extend stop to dial in the exact push distance while the dual air cushions absorb the impact at stroke end.
Pallet Stop Gate
Acts as an adjustable physical stop for incoming pallets, trimming the forward position on-site to match pallet depth without changing the cylinder mount.
Vertical Press Tooling
Lifts or presses loads up to 32 kg, using the adjustable extend screw to set the precise lower pressing height while the needle cushions decelerate the rapid descent.
Is the Airtac MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ40X175-50 the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 40 mm bore, moving down to the Ø32 MICJ drops the 0.5 MPa push force to 402.2 N, while no larger MICJ bore exists above it. The 50 mm extend stop screw and dual adjustable cushions shine in fast, settable-position moves where you need precise endpoint trimming without swapping cylinders. The stop screw sets the forward end position only—it is not a mid-stroke lock.
Because a standard cylinder drifts on air loss, hold a suspended load with an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve rather than relying on the cushion. For mounting, select LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion brackets; the SDB pivot block is not available on this adjustable-stroke build.
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 MICJ40X175-50 FAQ
This 40 mm bore cylinder uses a 1/4" port. The theoretical maximum force is 128.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
An external screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 50 mm (usable range 125-175 mm), while needle valves adjust the air cushions at both ends to decelerate high-speed moves. The cushions only slow the piston near the end; they do not lock or hold position. This SKU has no magnet for sensors; use the -S version for CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches.
