The AirTAC MIJ Adjustable Cylinder MIJ40X30-10S is a genuine double acting, double rod, adjustable stroke round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 30mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and a stainless-steel barrel and rod for mildly corrosive environments.
Dialing in a heavy forward thrust is effortless with this Ø40 mm round-body mini cylinder, which lets you shorten the extend stroke by up to 10 mm via an external stop screw. The usable forward travel becomes 20 to 30 mm, while retract remains full. Built with a stainless-steel barrel and piston rod, it handles mild washdown and corrosion risks. Because this is a Ø40 bore, it is a non-ISO-6432 size, yet it retains the compact riveted construction of the series.
The 1/4" port and M12x1.25 male rod thread handle the air volume needed for that power. The -S suffix means a piston magnet is installed, allowing CMSG, DMSG or EMSG switches to track position. Fixed TPU bumper pads decelerate the stroke ends across the 30-800 mm/s speed range.

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.
Apply 628.3 N of clamping force at 0.5 MPa and fine-tune the forward reach up to 10 mm to accommodate different fixture heights without retooling.
Use the adjustable extend stop to set the exact gate projection for sorting heavy items, relying on the stainless build for damp industrial environments.
When sizing this heavy-duty class, stepping down to a Ø32 bore drops the 0.5 MPa push force to 402.2 N, whereas this Ø40 delivers 628.3 N. There is no larger bore in the MIJ family, so for loads exceeding its capacity you must change series entirely. The 10 mm external adjuster is ideal for taking up mechanical tolerance during setup or covering several stop positions with one part number, without swapping cylinders.
Remember that the stop screw sets the forward end position but is not a mid-stroke lock; the piston will drift if air pressure drops. For suspended loads, fit an external rod lock or pilot check valve. Mounting options include LB foot, FA flange and TC trunnion, but SDB pivot blocks are not offered on this adjustable variant.
Quick checklist
The theoretical maximum force is 128.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa. This Ø40 bore uses a 1/4" air port and a Ø16 mm rod with an M12x1.25 male thread.
An external stop screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 10 mm on site, letting you dial in the exact forward position without changing the cylinder; retract remains full. The -S suffix indicates a built-in piston magnet, enabling CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensors for position detection.
