The AirTAC MIJ Adjustable Cylinder MIJ16X20-10S is a genuine double acting, double rod, adjustable stroke round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø16mm bore and 20mm stroke, M5×0.8 air ports and a stainless-steel barrel and rod for mildly corrosive environments. Its ISO 6432 mounting interface fits standard ISO 6432 mini-cylinder mounting interfaces.
Dial in a precise forward end position on-site with the AirTAC MIJ16X20-10S, a round-body stainless steel mini cylinder featuring a 10 mm extend-stroke adjustment window. An external stop screw lets you shorten the forward stroke from its 20 mm nominal length down to 10 mm without changing parts, while the retract stroke remains full. Built with a riveted stainless barrel and piston rod, it handles mild washdown environments and conforms to the ISO 6432 mounting interface for Ø16 bores.
The integrated piston magnet (-S) supports CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG sensors for position confirmation.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC MI/MIC (ISO 6432) datasheet. Barrel & rod: stainless steel (round-body, riveted construction). Thread options: PT (blank) / G.
| Pressure | Force (both ways) |

| 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).

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.
Trim the extend stroke on-site to push 5.1 kg packages smoothly into a staging lane, taking up mechanical tolerances as guide rails wear.
Fine-tune the forward end position to clamp fragile plastic housings gently, relying on the fixed TPU bumpers to soften the final impact.
The 16 mm bore hits a versatile middle ground, and the 10 mm external stop screw is ideal for taking up mechanical tolerances during changeovers. Mount using LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion brackets (SDB pivot-block is not available on this adjustable variant).
Remember that the stop screw sets the end position but does not function as a mid-stroke lock. If air pressure drops, the piston will drift; to hold a vertical load securely, add an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve. Position sensing requires the -S magnet option included here to mount CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches.
Quick checklist
This 16 mm bore cylinder uses an M5×0.8 air port. The theoretical maximum force is 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
An external stop screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 10 mm on-site, giving a usable forward range of 10 to 20 mm; the retract stroke remains full. The -S suffix means a piston magnet is built-in, allowing you to mount CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors for position detection.
