About the Airtac MIJ Adjustable Cylinder MIJ16X50-40S
Dial in your forward end position on-site with the AirTAC MIJ16X50-40S, a double-acting round-body mini cylinder featuring a 40mm extend-stroke adjustment window. An external stop screw lets you shorten the forward stroke from its 50mm nominal length down to 10mm, absorbing setup tolerances without swapping hardware. The retract stroke remains full length. Built with a stainless-steel barrel and piston rod, this riveted construction handles mild washdown environments while conforming to the ISO 6432 mounting interface for standard mini brackets.
Air connects via an M5×0.8 port, driving the Ø6 mm rod at 30-800 mm/s. Because this SKU includes the -S magnet, it directly accepts CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors for position detection. Fixed TPU bumper pads decelerate the stroke ends, though the stop screw itself is not a mid-stroke lock.

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 MIJ16X50-40S Is Used
Adjustable Stop Feeding
Set the exact push distance for a 5 kg parts feeder, trimming the extend stroke by up to 40mm to accommodate different product lengths without changing cylinders.
Tolerance Take-Up Clamping
Absorb mechanical tolerances in a 60 N clamping station by fine-tuning the forward end position on-site, ensuring consistent contact pressure across batches.
Changeover Sorting Gate
Quickly reconfigure a diverter gate stroke between 10mm and 50mm during product changeovers, using the external screw to dial in the new extend endpoint.
Is the Airtac MIJ Adjustable Cylinder MIJ16X50-40S the Right Cylinder?
The 40mm adjustment window is ideal for machines needing one part number to cover multiple forward stops, but remember the cylinder will drift and lose position on air loss—the stop screw sets the end point but does not function as a brake. For suspended loads, install an external pilot check valve or rod lock.
Mounting options include LB foot, FA flange, and TC trunnion styles, plus CA, U, R, or CM back covers (SDB pivot blocks are not available on this adjustable variant). Use the built-in magnet with CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches for end-of-stroke confirmation.
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 MIJ16X50-40S FAQ
The theoretical maximum force is 20.5 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
An external stop screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 40mm (usable range 10-50mm); the retract stroke remains full. The -S suffix indicates a built-in piston magnet for use with CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors. The stainless build resists mild corrosion.
