The AirTAC MIJ Adjustable Cylinder MIJ16X30-30S 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 the exact forward end position on-site with the AirTAC MIJ16X30-30S, a double-acting round-body mini cylinder featuring a 30 mm adjustable extend stroke. An external stop screw lets you shorten the forward travel anywhere from 0 to 30 mm without swapping parts, while retract remains full. The stainless-steel barrel and riveted construction shrug off mild corrosion and washdown environments.
It uses the ISO 6432 mounting interface for easy bracket drops, breathes through an M5×0.8 port, and includes a built-in piston magnet (-S) for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensors. Fixed TPU bumpers decelerate the stroke ends across the 30-800 mm/s speed range.

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.
Swap product families and use the 30 mm extend adjuster to fine-tune the forward stop for different carton sizes, absorbing mechanical tolerances without machining new spacers.
Leverage the -S magnet with a DMSG switch to confirm end-of-stroke on a 5.1 kg vertical lift, tweaking the 0-30 mm extend window to set the exact contact depth without reprogramming.
If your setup needs less push, the smaller MIJ12 bore provides 56.5 N at 0.5 MPa; stepping up to the MIJ20 yields 157.0 N for heavier stages. The 30 mm adjust window is ideal for taking up mechanical tolerances during changeovers, letting one cylinder cover multiple intermediate stop points. Because the stop screw only trims the extend end, retract always hits the full 30 mm.
Remember that the adjuster sets the end position but acts as no mid-stroke lock; the piston will drift if air pressure drops, so fit an external rod lock or pilot check valve for held loads. Mount via LB foot, FA flange or TC trunnion (SDB pivot block is not offered on this adjustable variant). The -S magnet enables position sensing, whereas a non-S SKU cannot take a sensor.
Quick checklist
This 16 mm bore cylinder uses an M5×0.8 air port. At 0.5 MPa it pushes 100.5 N and pulls 86.4 N. At 0.7 MPa it pushes 140.7 N and pulls 120.9 N. The theoretical maximum force is 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The external stop screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 30 mm on-site; the retract stroke remains fixed at the full 30 mm. The -S suffix means a piston magnet is built-in for CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensors. Fixed TPU bumpers decelerate the stroke ends.
