About the Airtac MIJ Adjustable Cylinder MIJ16X175-20
Dial in a precise forward end position on the production floor with the AirTAC MIJ16X175-20, a round-body stainless steel mini cylinder. An external stop screw lets you shorten the extend stroke by up to 20 mm on site, yielding a usable forward travel of 155 to 175 mm without swapping parts. Retract travel remains the full 175 mm. The built-in fixed TPU bumper pads absorb end-of-stroke impact.
Built with a stainless-steel barrel and piston rod, this riveted construction resists mild corrosion and washdown environments. The M5×0.8 port and M6x1.0 male rod thread match standard mini-cylinder interfaces, and because the bore is Ø16, it conforms to ISO 6432 mounting dimensions.

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 MIJ16X175-20 Is Used
Tolerance Take-Up
Trim the 175 mm extend stroke by up to 20 mm to absorb stacking tolerances in light 60 N assembly presses without machining new hard stops.
Staged Part Feeding
Dial the forward position to push 5 kg workpieces cleanly into a conveyor lane, adjusting the end point on the fly for different product changeovers.
Light Clamping
Set a precise 155 mm forward clamp position for delicate components, using the fixed TPU bumpers to soften the final impact on the part.
Is the Airtac MIJ Adjustable Cylinder MIJ16X175-20 the Right Cylinder?
If your payload is lighter, stepping down to the Ø12 MIJ yields 56.5 N, whereas heavier loads might require the Ø20 MIJ at 157.0 N. The 20 mm adjustment window is perfect for taking up mechanical tolerances or staging a part feed, letting one SKU cover several intermediate stops.
Remember that this SKU lacks the -S magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors. For mounting, select LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion brackets, plus CA, U, R, or CM back covers, noting the SDB pivot block is not offered on this adjustable variant. Finally, the stop screw sets the end position but is not a mid-stroke lock; the piston will drift on air loss, so add an external rod lock or pilot check valve for held loads.
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 MIJ16X175-20 FAQ
The theoretical maximum force is 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
An external screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 20 mm on site, while retract remains the full 175 mm. This specific SKU has no magnet (-S), so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors. The stainless build handles mild washdowns.
