The AirTAC MIJ Adjustable Cylinder MIJ40X100-20S is a genuine double acting, double rod, adjustable stroke round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 100mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and a stainless-steel barrel and rod for mildly corrosive environments.
Dial in a precise forward end position on-site with the AirTAC MIJ40X100-20S, a round-body stainless steel mini cylinder featuring a 20 mm extend-stroke adjustment window. Rather than swapping components to hit a new stop, an external screw trims the forward travel down from the 100 mm nominal maximum, while the retract stroke remains full. This on-site tunability makes it highly effective for taking up mechanical tolerances or covering multiple feed lengths with a single part number.
Built with a riveted stainless-steel barrel and a Ø16 mm rod, this double-acting unit resists mild corrosion and washdown environments. The 1/4" port and M12x1.25 male rod thread handle robust air flows and mounting loads. Because this is a -S SKU, the built-in piston magnet supports CMSG, DMSG, and EMSG position switches.

Specifications follow the official AirTAC MI/MIC (ISO 6432) datasheet. Barrel & rod: stainless steel (round-body, riveted construction). Thread options: PT (blank) / G. Note: the Ø40 bore is a larger, non-ISO-6432 size.
| Pressure | Force (both ways) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 528 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 739 N |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 108 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.
Set the forward reach on-site to deflect varying carton sizes on a line, using the external screw to dial in the exact stopping point.
The 20 mm external stop screw is ideal for changeover jobs where you need to tune the extend end without machining new hard stops. Remember that the stop screw sets the end position but is not a mid-stroke lock; the piston will drift on air loss, so fit an external rod lock or pilot check valve for held loads. Mount via LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion (SDB pivot-block is unavailable on this adjustable variant), and rely on the fixed TPU bumper pads to decelerate the stroke end.
Quick checklist
The theoretical maximum force is 128.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
An external stop screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 20 mm on-site, allowing usable forward travel between 80 and 100 mm; the retract stroke remains full. The included -S magnet enables CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors for position detection.
