The AirTAC MIJ Adjustable Cylinder MIJ40X20-20 is a genuine double acting, double rod, adjustable stroke round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 20mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and a stainless-steel barrel and rod for mildly corrosive environments.
Trimming the forward end position by up to 20 mm on site, the AirTAC MIJ40X20-20 lets you fine-tune the extend stop without swapping hardware.
Built with a stainless-steel barrel and Ø16 rod for mild corrosion resistance, it operates at 30-800 mm/s on a 1/4" port with an M12x1.25 male thread. The retract stroke remains full while the external screw shortens only the extend end. It uses fixed TPU bumper pads for end deceleration, and because this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot accept 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. |

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.
Quickly tune the forward position for different pallet widths without changing cylinders, relying on the 32 kg vertical lift capacity.
When sizing this 40 mm bore, dropping down to an MIJ32 lowers the 0.5 MPa push force to 402.2 N, while stepping up is unavailable as this is the largest MIJ size. The 20 mm adjustment window is ideal for taking up mechanical tolerances or matching multiple part stops using one cylinder. Remember 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 not offered on this adjustable variant), and choose the -S magnet version if you need position sensing.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it pushes 628.3 N and pulls 527.8 N. At 0.7 MPa it pushes 879.6 N and pulls 738.9 N. The theoretical max force is 128.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It uses a 1/4" port and a Ø16 rod with an M12x1.25 male thread.
An external stop screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 20 mm on site, while the retract stroke remains full. This SKU has no magnet (-S omitted), so it cannot take CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensors. The stainless build resists mild corrosion, and fixed TPU bumpers decelerate the stroke end.
