The AirTAC MIJ Adjustable Cylinder MIJ40X160-30S is a genuine double acting, double rod, adjustable stroke round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 160mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and a stainless-steel barrel and rod for mildly corrosive environments.
Dial in your forward end position on-site with the MIJ40X160-30S, a round-body stainless mini cylinder featuring a 30 mm external stop-screw adjustment window. This double-acting actuator lets you trim the extend stroke from 160 mm down to 130 mm without swapping parts, while retract remains full length. The stainless-steel barrel and Ø16 mm piston rod supply mild corrosion and washdown resistance.
It uses a 1/4" port and an M12x1.25 male rod thread. Equipped with fixed TPU bumper pads to decelerate the stroke end, the -S suffix indicates a built-in piston magnet for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors.

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).

|---|---|
| 40 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×160 | Stroke length in mm. |
| -30 | Adjustable stroke window (mm the extend stroke can be shortened on site). |
| -S | Optional built-in magnet for CMSG / DMSG / EMSG sensors. |
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.
Apply precise clamping pressure on cartons of different heights, adjusting the forward stop from 130 to 160 mm while relying on the 32 kg vertical lift margin.
The 30 mm external adjuster is ideal for taking up mechanical tolerances during setup or covering multiple stop positions with a single part number. Note that the stop screw only sets the extend end position; it is not a mid-stroke lock. The piston will drift on air loss, so install an external rod lock or pilot check valve for held loads. Mount using LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion brackets (SDB pivot blocks are not available on this adjustable variant).
Quick checklist
This Ø40 mm cylinder uses a 1/4" air port. The theoretical maximum force is 128.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
An external stop screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 30 mm on-site, yielding a usable forward range of 130-160 mm; retract remains full stroke. The -S suffix means a magnet is built-in for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors. Fixed TPU bumpers decelerate the ends.
