The AirTAC Airtac MIJ Adjustable Cylinder MIJ20X250-50SG is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø20mm bore and 250mm stroke, 1/8" air ports and a stainless-steel barrel and rod for mildly corrosive environments. Its ISO 6432 mounting interface makes it a compact drop-in for standard mini-cylinder fixtures.
Trimming the forward end by up to 50 mm via an external stop screw, this double-acting round-body mini cylinder lets you fine-tune the extend position on-site without swapping parts. The Ø20 mm bore delivers 157 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, yielding a safe working load of roughly 94 N or a 2:1 vertical lift capacity of about 8 kg. Retract travel remains at the full 250 mm.
Built with a stainless-steel barrel and rod for mild corrosion resistance, it drops into standard ISO 6432 mini-cylinder brackets and clevises. This SKU includes a piston magnet for position sensing and uses a 1/8" G port. Fixed TPU bumper pads decelerate the stroke ends.

Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a safety margin.

MI-family variants: MI / MIC (double acting ±cushion), MSI / MTI (single acting push / pull), MID / MICD (double rod ±cushion), MIJ / MICJ (adjustable stroke ±cushion). Back covers CA / U / R / CM. Mounting LB / FA / SDB / TC.
Dial in the exact 200 to 250 mm extend position to deflect varying carton widths on a packaging line without changing hardware.
Use the 50 mm external adjustment to compensate for raw part tolerances, setting the precise forward clamping point for each workpiece batch.
Push boxes weighing up to 8 kg onto an accumulation roller line, tweaking the extend end to accommodate different pallet loading patterns.
For lighter jobs, the Ø16 bore provides 100.5 N push at 0.5 MPa; if you need more power, stepping up to the Ø25 bore yields 245.3 N. The 50 mm adjustment window here is ideal for taking up mechanical tolerances or covering multiple stop points in a changeover fixture using a single part number. The stop screw sets the forward end position but does not lock the rod mid-stroke. Because a standard cylinder drifts on air loss, add an external rod lock or pilot check valve to hold suspended loads. Mount via LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion (SDB is not offered on this adjustable variant), and pair the built-in magnet with CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it provides 157 N push and 131.9 N pull. At 0.7 MPa it provides 219.8 N push and 184.7 N pull. The theoretical maximum force is 32 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The air port is 1/8" with a G thread, and the male rod thread is M8x1.25.
An external stop screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 50 mm on-site, allowing you to set the exact forward end position while retract remains full. The -S suffix means it has a built-in piston magnet for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors. Fixed TPU bumpers decelerate the stroke ends.
