The AirTAC MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ40X250-50 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 MICJ40X250-50, a double-acting round-body mini cylinder featuring a 50 mm adjustable extend stroke. An external screw trims the forward end position down from the 250 mm nominal maximum without swapping hardware, while a needle-set adjustable air cushion at both ends soaks up high-speed shock. This Ø40 mm bore operates on a 1/4" port and hits speeds of 30-800 mm/s.
Because this is a non-magnetic SKU, it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors; you would need the -S variant for position detection. 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.

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).
| MICJ | round-body mini cylinder (adjustable-stroke, variable cushion). |
|---|---|
| 40 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×250 | Stroke length in mm. |
| -50 | Adjustable stroke window (mm the extend stroke can be shortened on site). |
| -S | Optional built-in magnet for CMSG / DMSG / EMSG sensors. |
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.
Secure heavy machined components with up to 879.6 N of clamping force at 0.7 MPa, fine-tuning the 50 mm extend stop to match varying part widths perfectly.
Use the dual adjustable air cushions to safely absorb the kinetic energy of fast-moving 30 kg pallets arriving at a 250 mm transfer station without slamming.
Lift packaging flow gates weighing around 32 kg, relying on the external stop screw to set the exact 220 mm open height required for carton clearance.
The 50 mm extend adjuster paired with the dual air cushions is specifically valuable for fast, settable-position moves where you need to tune out impact shock at the end of travel without re-engineering the fixture. Mount using LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion brackets, plus CA, U, R, or CM back covers; the SDB pivot-block is not available on this adjustable-stroke build. Since this SKU lacks a magnet, it cannot host sensors.
Quick checklist
This 40 mm bore cylinder features a 1/4" port and an M12x1.25 male rod thread.
An external stop screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 50 mm on-site, letting you set the exact forward end position; retract remains full length. Needle valves adjust the air cushion at both ends to decelerate the piston before impact. This SKU has no magnet, so it cannot accept position sensors.
