The AirTAC MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ40X225-30 is a genuine double acting, double rod, adjustable stroke + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 225mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and a stainless-steel barrel and rod for mildly corrosive environments.
Dial in the forward stop on site without swapping cylinders: the AirTAC MICJ40X225-30 uses an external screw to shorten the extend stroke by up to 30 mm, giving a usable forward range of 195-225 mm. This round-body stainless steel mini cylinder pairs that settable end position with a needle-adjustable air cushion at both ends, soaking up high-speed shock so you control both the landing spot and the impact force.
The stainless barrel and rod resist mild corrosion and washdown. Note this SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot host CMSG/DMSG/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.
| 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).

|---|---|
| 40 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×225 | Stroke length in mm. |

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 heavy cartons on a conveyor at up to 800 mm/s; the dual adjustable air cushions absorb the end-of-stroke shock to prevent mechanical damage.
The adjustable stop plus dual air cushions shine in fast set-position moves where you need to trim the extend end without mechanical rework. For holding a load on air loss, remember this cylinder drifts—the stop screw sets the end position but is not a mid-stroke lock, so add an external rod lock or pilot check valve. Mount via LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion (SDB is not offered), and select the -S variant if you need sensing.
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 (retract remains full), while needle valves adjust the air cushions at both ends to decelerate the piston near stroke ends. The cushion only decelerates and is not a lock; the cylinder drifts on air loss, so use an external rod lock to hold a load. This non-S SKU cannot take a sensor.
