The AirTAC MIJ Adjustable Cylinder MIJ16X30-20 is a genuine double acting, double rod, adjustable stroke round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø16mm bore and 30mm 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 your forward end position on-site with the AirTAC MIJ16X30-20, a round-body stainless steel mini cylinder that lets an external stop screw shorten the extend stroke by up to 20 mm. This means you can cover several different stop distances using a single part number, taking up mechanical tolerances during setup without swapping out the whole actuator.
Built with a riveted stainless barrel and rod for mild washdown resistance, it conforms to the ISO 6432 mounting interface for easy bracket drops. The M5×0.8 port and M6x1.0 male rod thread handle the air and linkage, while fixed TPU bumpers decelerate the stroke ends.

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) |

| 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).

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.
Set precise forward endpoints for carton indexing operations, fine-tuning the 30 mm stroke on-site to push varying box sizes without needing separate actuators for each format.
If your setup needs less push, the smaller Ø12 bore provides 56.5 N at 0.5 MPa; if you are moving heavier fixtures, stepping up to the Ø20 bore yields 157.0 N. The integrated adjuster is ideal for changeover jobs where you need to nudge the extend position by a few millimeters without machining new hard stops. Remember that this adjuster sets the end position only—it is not a mid-stroke lock, and the cylinder will drift on air loss, so add an external pilot check valve if you must hold a suspended load. You can mount it via LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion (SDB is not offered on this adjustable variant), and because this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors.
Quick checklist
Its theoretical maximum force is 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
An external stop screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 20 mm on-site (retract remains full). This SKU does not have a magnet, so it cannot take CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors—you would need the -S variant for position detection.
