The AirTAC MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ40X300-75 is a genuine double acting, double rod, adjustable stroke + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 300mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and a stainless-steel barrel and rod for mildly corrosive environments.
Dial in a precise forward stop without swapping cylinders using the AirTAC MICJ40X300-75. This round-body stainless steel mini cylinder features an external screw that shortens the extend stroke by up to 75 mm on site, giving a usable forward range of 225 to 300 mm. A needle-adjustable air cushion at both ends soaks up high-speed shock, letting you set the position and control the impact simultaneously. The retract stroke remains full length.
Built with a riveted stainless barrel and a Ø16 mm piston rod, it resists mild corrosion and handles washdown environments. It operates at speeds from 30 to 800 mm/s, uses a 1/4" port, and features an M12x1.25 male rod thread. Note this non-magnetic SKU cannot accept position sensors; adding the -S variant enables CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches.

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. |
| ×300 | 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.
Pushes heavy cartons at high speed on a packaging line, using the 75 mm extend adjustment to dial in the exact push distance while the dual air cushions absorb end-of-stroke impact.
Lowers a 32 kg tooling head smoothly, relying on the adjustable extend screw to set the precise lower end position and the needle cushion to prevent slamming.
As the largest available MICJ bore, there is no larger standard size to step up to. The adjustable stop screw and dual air cushions are ideal for fast, settable-position moves, but remember the cylinder does not hold position on air loss—the piston drifts if pressure drops. For a suspended load, install an external rod lock or pilot check valve.
Mounting options include LB foot, FA flange, and TC trunnion, plus CA, U, R, or CM back covers. The SDB pivot block is not available on this adjustable-stroke variant. Because this SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot support magnetic sensing.
Quick checklist
This Ø40 mm 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 75 mm, setting the forward end position without affecting the full retract. A needle valve adjusts the air cushion at both ends to decelerate the piston at high speed. This cushion only reduces impact near stroke end; it is not a brake. The cylinder does not hold position on air loss, and this non-S SKU cannot accept magnetic sensors.
