About the Airtac MIJ Adjustable Cylinder MIJ40X160-10
Dial in your forward travel on-site with the AirTAC MIJ40X160-10, a round-body stainless mini cylinder built for double-acting operation. An external stop screw lets you shorten the extend stroke by up to 10 mm, allowing precise tolerance take-up without swapping components. The retract stroke remains full length.
The stainless-steel barrel and piston rod provide reliable mild corrosion and washdown resistance. Because this is a non-magnet SKU, it cannot host position sensors; adding the -S variant enables CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches. Fixed TPU bumper pads decelerate the piston at the stroke ends.

| Stroke | 160 mm |
| Acting type | Double acting, double rod, adjustable stroke |
| Port size | 1/4" |
| Rod thread | M12×1.25 |
| Fluid | Air (filtered by 40µm element) |
|---|---|
| Operating pressure | 0.15 – 1.0 MPa |
| Proof pressure | 1.5 MPa |
| Temperature | -20 to +70 °C |
| Speed range | 30 – 800 mm/s |

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.
Theoretical Output Force (Ø40mm)
| 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).

Where the Airtac MIJ Adjustable Cylinder MIJ40X160-10 Is Used
Heavy Diverter Gate
Powers a robust routing flap on a packaging line, using the 10 mm extend adjustment to perfectly time the deflection angle for varying carton sizes.
Film Roll Nipper
Actuates a tensioning nipper for thick packaging film, using the stainless build to withstand washdown and the adjustable forward stop to control grip depth.
Is the Airtac MIJ Adjustable Cylinder MIJ40X160-10 the Right Cylinder?
If your application demands less force, drop down to the 32 mm bore; if you need maximum push within this mini format, the 40 mm bore is the largest available. The 10 mm external stop adjustment is ideal for fine-tuning the forward end position during setup or changeovers. Mount using LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion brackets, as the SDB pivot block is not available for this adjustable variant. Remember that the stop screw sets the end position but does not function as a mid-stroke lock; the piston will drift on air loss. For load holding, install an external rod lock or pilot check valve.
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 MIJ40X160-10 FAQ
This 40 mm bore cylinder features a 1/4" port and a 16 mm rod. The theoretical maximum force is 128.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
An external stop screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 10 mm on-site, letting you set the exact forward end position; the retract stroke remains full. This screw is not a mid-stroke lock, and the cylinder will drift on air loss. Additionally, this non-S SKU lacks a magnet and cannot host sensors.
