About the Airtac MIJ Adjustable Cylinder MIJ16X160-10
Dial in a precise forward end position on-site with the AirTAC MIJ16X160-10, a round-body stainless-steel mini cylinder that lets you shorten the extend stroke by up to 10 mm via an external stop screw. Retract remains at the full 160 mm, while the forward travel can be trimmed down to a 150 mm usable extend.
Built with a riveted stainless barrel and a Ø6 mm piston rod, the unit resists mild corrosion and handles washdown environments. It conforms to the ISO 6432 mounting interface for easy bracket drops, uses an M5×0.8 air port, and relies on fixed TPU bumper pads to decelerate the stroke end. Because this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet option, it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or 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.
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 MIJ16X160-10 Is Used
Carton Flap Tucking
Fine-tune the actuator end position to tuck different box flap heights, benefiting from the stainless build during humid or washdown packing cycles.
Is the Airtac MIJ Adjustable Cylinder MIJ16X160-10 the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 16 mm bore against adjacent options, stepping down to a 12 mm bore drops the 0.5 MPa push force to 56.5 N, while moving up to a 20 mm bore increases it to 157.0 N. The integrated 10 mm adjuster is ideal for taking up mechanical tolerances during setup or covering multiple stop positions from a single part number. You can use LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion mounts, but note that the SDB pivot block is not available on this adjustable variant.
Keep in mind the external screw only sets the extend end position; it is not a mid-stroke lock. The piston will drift on air loss, so if your application requires held load, you must add an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve. For position sensing, select the -S magnet version instead of this non-magnet SKU.
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 MIJ16X160-10 FAQ
The theoretical maximum force is 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa, and the air port is M5×0.8.
An external stop screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 10 mm on-site, giving a usable extend of 150-160 mm, while retract stays at the full 160 mm. The screw is not a mid-stroke lock; the piston drifts on air loss, and fixed TPU bumpers only decelerate the stroke end. This SKU has no magnet and cannot take sensors.
