The AirTAC MICJ Adjustable Mini Cylinder MICJ40X450-20S is a genuine double acting, double rod, adjustable stroke + cushion round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 450mm 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 MICJ40X450-20S, a double-acting round-body stainless mini cylinder featuring a 20 mm adjustable extend stroke. An external screw trims the extend end position down to 430 mm without swapping hardware, while a needle-set variable air cushion at both ends soaks up high-speed shock. The stainless barrel and rod resist mild corrosion and washdown environments.
This Ø40 mm non-ISO-6432 unit delivers serious force, pushing 628.3 N and pulling 527.8 N at 0.5 MPa. Equipped with a built-in magnet (-S), it supports CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG sensors, and uses a 1/4" port with an M12x1.25 male rod thread.

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. |
| ×450 | Stroke length in mm. |
| -20 | 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.
Acts as a robust pneumatic stop gate for heavy pallets, tuning the extend position on-site to match pallet depth while the stainless construction handles dusty environments.
When sizing this 40 mm bore, moving down to a Ø32 mm MICJ drops the 0.5 MPa push force to 402.2 N, while no larger bore exists in the MICJ family. This model is ideal for fast, settable-position moves where the 20 mm extend adjuster lets you fine-tune the forward stop and the dual air cushions decelerate the load smoothly. Note that the cushion only decelerates near the stroke end and is not a mid-stroke lock.
For mounting, choose LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion options, plus CA, U, R, or CM back covers (SDB pivot-block is not available on this adjustable variant). Because it lacks a physical lock, the piston will drift on air loss or when valves are centered; use an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve if you need to hold a suspended load.
Quick checklist
At 0.7 MPa, push is 879.6 N and pull is 738.9 N. The theoretical maximum force is 128.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It features a 1/4" air port and a 16 mm piston rod.
An external stop screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 20 mm on-site, letting you set the exact forward end position. A needle-set variable air cushion at both ends decelerates the piston to absorb high-speed shock. The -S suffix means it has a built-in magnet for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors.
