About the Airtac MIJ Adjustable Cylinder MIJ16X40-40
Dial in a precise forward end position on-site with the AirTAC MIJ16X40-40, a round-body stainless-steel mini cylinder featuring a 40mm adjustable extend stroke. An external stop screw lets you shorten the forward travel by up to 40mm, absorbing setup tolerances so one part number covers multiple stop lengths without swapping hardware. Retract travel remains full. Built with a riveted stainless barrel and Ø6mm rod, it withstands mild washdown environments and uses the ISO 6432 mounting interface for standard mini brackets.
Fixed TPU bumper pads decelerate the stroke end, operating reliably at speeds of 30-800mm/s across a -20 to +70°C range. Note this specific SKU lacks a magnet and cannot host position sensors; the -S variant is required for CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches.

| 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 MIJ16X40-40 Is Used
Adjustable Stop Gauging
Use the 40mm extend adjustment to set precise forward stops for checking part dimensions, easily dialing the position back to accommodate different material thicknesses without changing cylinders.
Is the Airtac MIJ Adjustable Cylinder MIJ16X40-40 the Right Cylinder?
The integrated stop screw is ideal for changeover jobs where you need to stage feeds or trim tolerances on the fly, but remember it only shortens the extend stroke and acts purely as an end stop. It is not a mid-stroke lock or brake.
Because this is a double-acting cylinder, the piston will drift if air pressure drops or the valve centers, so add an external rod lock or pilot check valve if your application requires held loads. For mounting, you can utilize LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion brackets, as well as CA, U, R, or CM back covers, but the SDB pivot block is not supported on this adjustable variant.
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 MIJ16X40-40 FAQ
At 0.7MPa, push increases to 140.7N and pull to 120.9N. The theoretical maximum force is 20.5kgf at 1.0MPa.
An external screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 40mm on-site, setting the exact forward end position without affecting the full retract stroke. This SKU does not include a magnet, so it cannot support CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors; you must specify the -S variant for position sensing.
