The AirTAC Airtac MIJ Adjustable Cylinder MIJ10X50-20 is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø10mm bore and 50mm stroke, M5×0.8 air ports and a stainless-steel barrel and rod for mildly corrosive environments. Its ISO 6432 mounting interface makes it a compact drop-in for standard mini-cylinder fixtures.
Dial in a precise forward end position on-site with the AirTAC MIJ10X50-20, a round-body stainless-steel mini cylinder built for double-acting operation. An external stop screw lets you shorten the extend stroke by up to 20 mm, yielding a usable forward travel of 30 to 50 mm without swapping parts, while retract remains full. The M5x0.8 port and M4x0.7 male rod thread keep the footprint compact.
Generating 39.3 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this unit handles a safe working load of roughly 24 N or lifts about 2 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. The stainless barrel and rod shrug off mild corrosion and washdown environments. Conforming to the ISO 6432 mounting interface for mini cylinders, it drops into standard brackets. Fixed TPU bumper pads decelerate the stroke ends, and because this SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot host CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors.

MI-family variants: MI / MIC (double acting ±cushion), MSI / MTI (single acting push / pull), MID / MICD (double rod ±cushion), MIJ / MICJ (adjustable stroke ±cushion). Back covers CA / U / R / CM. Mounting LB / FA / SDB / TC.
Uses the 39.3 N push force to kick small plastic mouldings off a fixture, with the 20 mm adjuster fine-tuning the kick distance to avoid hitting the conveyor.
Pushes lightweight cartons on a sorting line, relying on the 2 kg safe vertical lift capacity and on-site stroke trimming to match varying box widths.
Moves a testing probe into contact with delicate electronics, using the adjustable forward stop to dial in exact pressure without overtravel.
When sizing this 10 mm bore, step down to an MIJ8 if your load is very light (25.1 N push @0.5 MPa) or up to an MIJ12 (56.5 N push @0.5 MPa) if you need more thrust. The 20 mm adjustment window is ideal for taking up mechanical tolerances or staging feeds during changeovers. You can select LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion mounts, but note the SDB pivot block is not available on this adjustable variant.
Remember that the stop screw sets the forward end position but acts purely as a mechanical stop, not a mid-stroke lock. The piston will drift if air pressure drops, so fit an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve if you need to hold a load securely.
Quick checklist
This double-acting cylinder uses an M5x0.8 air port. At 0.5 MPa it provides 39.3 N push and 33 N pull. At 0.7 MPa it provides 55 N push and 46.1 N pull. The theoretical maximum force is 8 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
An external stop screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 20 mm, giving a usable extend range of 30 to 50 mm; the retract stroke remains full. The screw is only an end stop, not a mid-stroke lock, so the piston will drift on air loss. This SKU has no magnet (-S), so it cannot accept position sensors.
