The AirTAC MIJ Adjustable Cylinder MIJ40X40-30 is a genuine double acting, double rod, adjustable stroke round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 40mm 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 MIJ40X40-30, a round-body stainless steel mini cylinder built for double-acting operation. An external stop screw lets you shorten the extend stroke by up to 30 mm, yielding a usable 10 to 40 mm forward travel while keeping full retract. This on-site adjustability allows one part number to cover several stop distances, absorbing setup tolerances without swapping hardware.
The stainless barrel and rod resist mild corrosion and washdown environments. It features a 1/4" port, a 16 mm rod with an M12x1.25 male thread, and fixed TPU bumper pads to decelerate the stroke end. Note this is a non-ISO-6432 size and this specific SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot host 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).
| MIJ | round-body mini cylinder (adjustable-stroke). |
|---|---|
| 40 | Bore size in mm. |
| ×40 | 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.
Diverts packages of varying sizes on a line by trimming the extend stroke on-site, adapting the stop position without changing the cylinder.
If your load is lighter, stepping down to the MIJ32X40-30 drops the push force to 402.2 N, whereas moving up is impossible as 40 mm is the largest available MIJ bore. The 30 mm adjustment window is ideal for taking up mechanical tolerances during changeover. Remember the stop screw only trims the extend end; it is not a mid-stroke lock. The piston will drift on air loss, so add an external rod lock or pilot check valve for held loads. Mounting options include LB, FA, and TC styles, but the SDB pivot block is not available on this adjustable variant.
Quick checklist
The theoretical maximum force is 128.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa. This 40 mm bore uses a 1/4" air port and a 16 mm rod with an M12x1.25 thread.
An external stop screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 30 mm on-site, but retract remains full and the screw is not a mid-stroke lock. This SKU has no magnet and cannot take CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors; you need the -S variant for sensing. The stainless build resists mild corrosion.
