The AirTAC MIJ Adjustable Cylinder MIJ40X225-20S is a genuine double acting, double rod, adjustable stroke round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 225mm 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 MIJ40X225-20S, a round-body stainless steel mini cylinder featuring a 20mm adjustable extend stroke window. By turning the external stop screw, you can shorten the forward travel from its 225mm maximum down to 205mm, absorbing setup tolerances without swapping hardware. Retract travel remains at the full 225mm.
Built with a stainless-steel barrel and piston rod, the riveted construction resists mild corrosion and washdown environments. As a larger Ø40 bore, it uses a 1/4" port and a Ø16 rod with an M12x1.25 male thread, operating outside the ISO 6432 mounting interface at speeds from 30-800 mm/s. Because this SKU includes the -S magnet option, it is fully ready for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position sensing. Fixed TPU bumper pads decelerate the piston at the stroke ends.

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. |
| ×225 | Stroke length in mm. |
| -20 | Adjustable stroke window (mm the extend stroke can be shortened on site). |

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 exact push distance to deflect heavy cartons on a belt without overshooting, using the 20mm adjuster to tune the 628.3N extend force for different package sizes.
Fine-tune the forward reach of a 32 kg vertical lift mechanism to maintain consistent wrapping tension, relying on the -S magnet for position confirmation.
The 20mm external stop screw is ideal for taking up mechanical slack or matching multiple stops across a machine using one part number. Remember that the stop screw only sets the extend endpoint; it does not function as a mid-stroke lock. If your mechanism must hold a vertical load during air loss, add an external rod lock or pilot check valve, as the piston will drift. For mounting, select LB foot, FA flange, or TC trunnion brackets, plus CA, U, R, or CM back covers (SDB pivot blocks are not available on this adjustable variant).
Quick checklist
At 0.7 MPa, push increases to 879.6N and pull to 738.9N, with a theoretical maximum of 128.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The air port is 1/4" and the male rod thread is M12x1.25.
An external stop screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 20mm on-site, giving a usable forward range of 205-225mm while retract remains full. The -S suffix means a piston magnet is built-in for CMSG/DMSG/EMSG sensors. Fixed TPU bumpers decelerate the stroke end, but the screw is not a mid-stroke lock.
