The AirTAC MIJ Adjustable Cylinder MIJ16X60-20 is a genuine double acting, double rod, adjustable stroke round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø16mm bore and 60mm 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 the fly with the AirTAC MIJ16X60-20, a double-acting round-body mini cylinder built with a stainless-steel barrel and piston rod for mild washdown resistance. An external stop screw lets you shorten the extend stroke by up to 20 mm on site, turning the 60 mm nominal travel into a 40-60 mm usable window without changing the cylinder. Retract remains at the full 60 mm.
It uses an M5×0.8 port, a Ø6 mm rod with an M6x1.0 male thread, and conforms to the ISO 6432 mounting interface for easy bracket drops. This non-magnet SKU cannot host a sensor; adding the -S variant enables CMSG/DMSG/EMSG switches.

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) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 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).

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.
Dial the forward position on the fly for changeovers between similar product sizes, using the M5×0.8 ported actuator to push lightweight items at a safe 60 N working load.
Securely hold delicate components using the stainless steel round-body build, fine-tuning the clamp reach within a 40-60 mm window to prevent over-travel.
If you need less push, the Ø12 MIJ bore yields 56.5 N at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to the Ø20 MIJ provides 157.0 N for heavier stops. The 20 mm adjustment window here is ideal for taking up mechanical tolerances or staging feeds, letting one part number cover several intermediate positions. Remember the stop screw sets the end position but acts as no mid-stroke lock; the piston will drift on air loss, so fit an external rod lock or pilot check valve to hold a load.
Mounting options include LB foot, FA flange, and TC trunnion, plus CA, U, R, or CM back covers, though the SDB pivot block is not offered on this adjustable variant. Fixed TPU bumper pads decelerate the stroke ends across the 30-800 mm/s speed range, keeping operation smooth without adjustable air cushions.
Quick checklist
This Ø16 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 20 mm, giving a 40-60 mm usable forward window while retract stays at the full 60 mm. This SKU lacks a magnet and cannot take a sensor; you must specify the -S variant to use CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches.
