The AirTAC MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ40X250-30 is a genuine double acting, double rod, adjustable stroke + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 250mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and a stainless-steel barrel and rod for mildly corrosive environments.
Dial in a precise forward stop on-site with the AirTAC MICJ40X250-30, a round-body stainless-steel mini cylinder featuring an external screw that shortens the extend stroke by up to 30 mm (usable extend 220-250 mm). Built as a double-acting actuator, it pairs this settable end-position with a variable air cushion at both ends to soak up high-speed shock.
The stainless barrel and piston rod resist mild corrosion and washdown environments. Because this is a non-magnet SKU, it cannot accept 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.

|---|---|
| 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).

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.
Pushes heavy cartons at high speed on a packaging line, using the 30 mm extend stop to fine-tune the push distance and the air cushion to prevent end-of-stroke slamming.
Provides a steady 628.3 N pressing force to seat components, relying on the adjustable forward position to accommodate varying part thicknesses without retooling.
Acts as a robust stop gate for heavy pallets, absorbing the kinetic energy of impacts through the adjustable air cushion while maintaining a precise barrier height.
The adjustable extend stop plus needle-set cushion shines in fast set-position moves where you must tune the forward impact without swapping cylinders. Note that the stop screw sets the end position but is not a mid-stroke lock; the piston will drift on air loss, so add an external rod lock or pilot check valve for held loads. Mount via LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion, but exclude the SDB pivot-block as it is unavailable on this adjustable variant.
Quick checklist
This 40 mm bore cylinder uses a 1/4" air port. The theoretical maximum force is 128.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
An external screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 30 mm, letting you set the forward end position on-site. The needle-set air cushion at both ends decelerates the piston near stroke ends to absorb high-speed shock. The cushion only decelerates and does not act as a brake; the cylinder cannot hold a load on air loss and will drift, so use an external rod lock for holding. This non-S SKU lacks a magnet and cannot take sensors.
