The AirTAC MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ40X400-30 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 the AirTAC MICJ40X400-30, a double-acting round-body mini cylinder featuring a 30 mm adjustable extend stroke. An external screw trims the forward end position down from the 400 mm nominal maximum, letting you set exact reach without swapping hardware. A needle-set variable air cushion at both ends absorbs high-speed shock to protect your tooling.
Built with a stainless-steel barrel and a Ø16 mm piston rod, this riveted construction resists mild corrosion and washdown environments. Note this base SKU lacks a magnet and 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. |
| ×400 | Stroke length in mm. |
| -30 | 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.
Use the 30 mm extend adjuster to precisely set the 628.3 N forward impact on assembly presses, relying on the dual air cushions to absorb the high-speed shock.
Halt heavy pallets on a washdown line; the stainless build handles splashes while the 1/4" port delivers the volume needed for rapid 400 mm gating.
Lift or divert loads up to 32 kg safely, tuning the forward stop screw to hit exact conveyor heights without overtravel.
The 30 mm extend adjuster is ideal for fast set-position moves where you need to tune the forward stop without mechanical rework.
Remember that the external screw sets the end position but acts as neither a mid-stroke lock nor a brake. If your application must hold a load on air loss, add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve. Mount via LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion (the SDB pivot-block is not offered on this adjustable variant), and select the -S magnet version if you require position sensing.
Quick checklist
This Ø40 mm bore cylinder uses a 1/4" port and an M12x1.25 male rod thread.
An external screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 30 mm (retract remains full), while the needle-set variable air cushion at both ends decelerates the piston near stroke ends to soak up shock. This specific SKU has no magnet and cannot take a sensor; you must use the -S variant for CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches.
