About the Airtac MIJ Adjustable Cylinder MIJ16X15-10S
Dial in a precise forward end position on-site with the AirTAC MIJ16X15-10S, a round-body stainless steel mini cylinder featuring a 10mm adjustable extend stroke. An external stop screw lets you trim the forward stroke from 15mm down to 5mm, allowing one part number to cover several stop distances without swapping hardware. The retract stroke remains full length, and the screw only sets the end position, acting as a bumper decelerator rather than a mid-stroke lock.
Built with a riveted stainless barrel and Ø6mm rod for mild washdown resistance, this double-acting unit conforms to the ISO 6432 mounting interface. The M5×0.8 port and M6x1.0 male rod thread ensure straightforward integration, while the included -S magnet enables CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensor switches.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC MI/MIC (ISO 6432) datasheet. Barrel & rod: stainless steel (round-body, riveted construction). Thread options: PT (blank) / G.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø16mm)
| Pressure | Force (both ways) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 86 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 121 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 18 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).

Where the Airtac MIJ Adjustable Cylinder MIJ16X15-10S Is Used
Staged Transfer Stops
Acts as a pneumatic stop gate on a conveyor, with the extend stroke trimmed on-site to match carton widths of varying sizes during quick changeovers.
Light Press-Fit Pins
Handles delicate insertion tasks by using the adjustable forward stop to control the seating depth of small pins without bottoming out the cylinder.
Is the Airtac MIJ Adjustable Cylinder MIJ16X15-10S the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 16mm bore, dropping down to an MIJ12 lowers the push force to 56.5N at 0.5MPa, whereas stepping up to an MIJ20 raises it to 157N. The 10mm external adjuster is highly beneficial for taking up mechanical tolerances during setup or staging feeds across changeover jobs. Remember that a plain cylinder drifts on air loss; the stop screw and fixed TPU bumper pads decelerate the stroke end but do not lock the piston. For a held load, specify an external rod lock or pilot check valve.
Mounting options include LB foot, FA flange, and TC trunnion brackets, along with CA, U, R, or CM back covers (SDB pivot blocks are not available on this adjustable variant). Because this SKU includes the -S magnet, you can directly mount CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors for position confirmation.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT / G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Back cover (CA/U/R/CM) & mount (LB/FA/SDB/TC)
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Do not dismantle the riveted front/back covers.
- check Use correct back cover (CA/U/R/CM) & mount (LB/FA/SDB/TC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac MIJ Adjustable Cylinder MIJ16X15-10S FAQ
At 0.7MPa, the push increases to 140.7N and the pull to 120.9N. The theoretical maximum force is 20.5kgf at 1.0MPa.
An external stop screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 10mm on-site, allowing you to set a precise forward end position while the retract stroke remains full. The -S suffix indicates a built-in piston magnet for use with CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors. The cylinder uses fixed TPU bumper pads, not an adjustable air cushion.
