The AirTAC Airtac MIJ Adjustable Cylinder MIJ20X300-20S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø20mm bore and 300mm 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.
Dial in a precise forward end position on the fly with the AirTAC MIJ20X300-20S, a round-body stainless steel mini cylinder built for double-acting operation. An external stop screw lets you shorten the extend stroke by up to 20 mm directly on the machine, covering a usable 280 to 300 mm forward travel without swapping parts. Retract remains at the full 300 mm. The stainless barrel and rod supply mild corrosion resistance for washdown environments, and the built-in magnet (-S) supports CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG position switches.
Delivering 157 N of push force and 131.9 N of pull at 0.5 MPa, this ISO 6432 mounting-interface bore handles meaningful work. The computed safe working load sits around 94 N (60% of the 0.5 MPa push figure), translating to a vertical lift of roughly 8 kg with a 2:1 safety margin. It uses a 1/8" port, an Ø8 mm rod with an M8x1.25 male thread, and fixed TPU bumper pads to decelerate the stroke end.

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.
Use the 20 mm extend adjustment to alter the push-off distance for different product lengths on a single conveyor line, applying the 157 N @0.5 MPa force to clear parts efficiently.
Fine-tune the forward clamping position on machining fixtures to compensate for material thickness variations, safely exerting about 94 N of working force without over-stressing components.
Set the exact folding stop for various carton depths on a packaging line, relying on the stainless construction to handle light washdown between batch changeovers.
When sizing this 20 mm bore, stepping down to an MIJ16 yields 100.5 N push @0.5 MPa, while stepping up to an MIJ25 provides 245.3 N—giving you clear boundaries if your force requirements shift. The 20 mm adjustment window is highly useful for taking up mechanical tolerances or staggering part ejection across multiple stations during setup. Because the stop screw only trims the extend end position, it acts as an end stop, not a mid-stroke lock; the piston will drift on air loss, so fit an external rod lock or pilot check valve if you need to hold a suspended load. Mount via standard ISO 6432 brackets like LB, FA, or TC (SDB is not offered on this adjustable variant).
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. This bore uses a 1/8" air port and an Ø8 mm rod with an M8x1.25 male thread.
The external stop screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 20 mm (usable extend 280-300 mm), while retract stays at the full 300 mm. The screw sets the forward end position but is not a mid-stroke lock. The -S suffix means it has a built-in piston magnet for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors.
