The AirTAC MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ40X400-100 is a genuine double acting, double rod, adjustable stroke + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 400mm 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 this 40 mm bore round-body mini cylinder. An external screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 100 mm, letting you set the 400 mm travel down to 300 mm without swapping hardware. The stainless-steel barrel and rod shrug off mild washdown environments.
Note this non-magnetic SKU cannot host position 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. |
| ×400 | Stroke length in mm. |
| -100 | 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.
Pushes heavy palletized cartons off a high-speed line. The 100 mm extend trim sets the exact push distance, while the needle cushion absorbs the impact of rapid 628 N strokes.
Folds thick cardboard flaps on oversized packaging. The stainless build handles dusty environments, and the adjustable forward stop adapts to various case widths on the fly.
Acts as a positive stop for incoming pallets. The 1/4" port drives enough force to halt momentum, and the air cushion prevents end-of-stroke slamming over the 400 mm travel.
This Ø40 hits 628.3 N, making it ideal for heavy set-position moves. The adjustable stop and twin cushions excel in fast cycling, but remember the cylinder drifts on air loss—the screw sets the end position, not a mid-stroke lock. Use an external pilot check valve for holding. Mount via LB, FA, or TC (SDB is excluded), and select a -S variant if you need CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors.
Quick checklist
This 40 mm bore cylinder uses a 1/4" port. At 0.5 MPa it pushes 628.3 N and pulls 527.8 N. At 0.7 MPa it pushes 879.6 N and pulls 738.9 N. The theoretical maximum force is 128.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
An external screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 100 mm (usable 300-400 mm); retract remains full. Needle valves adjust the air cushion at both ends to decelerate high-speed moves. This SKU lacks a magnet for sensors, and the cushion only decelerates—it will not hold a load on air loss.
