The AirTAC MIJ Adjustable Cylinder MIJ40X400-100 is a genuine double acting, double rod, adjustable stroke round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 400mm stroke, 1/4" air ports and a stainless-steel barrel and rod for mildly corrosive environments.
Trimming the forward end position by up to 100 mm on-site, this round-body mini cylinder eliminates the need to swap hardware when tuning a 400 mm forward movement. The external stop screw sets the extend endpoint anywhere in a 300 to 400 mm window, while retract remains a full return. It is a double-acting stainless steel unit built for mild corrosion and washdown resistance.
The 1/4" port and M12x1.25 male rod thread handle the necessary airflow and mechanical coupling. This SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot host CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensors without switching to the -S variant.

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. |
| ×400 | Stroke length 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.
Securely pushes a 32 kg machining fixture into place, using the 100 mm extend adjustment to dial in the exact clamping distance without re-engineering the cell.
Ejects dense components from a washdown station, relying on the stainless build and a trimmed 350 mm extend stroke to drop parts accurately into a tote.
The 100 mm adjustment window is highly useful for taking up mechanical tolerances during setup or covering multiple intermediate stops with a single part number.
Because this is a non-ISO-6432 round-body cylinder, mounting relies on LB foot, FA flange or TC trunnion brackets, as the SDB pivot block is not offered for this adjustable variant. The stop screw only trims the extend endpoint and does not function as a mid-stroke lock; the piston will drift on air loss, so add an external rod lock or pilot check valve for suspended loads.
Quick checklist
The theoretical maximum force is 128.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
An external stop screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 100 mm on-site, allowing a usable forward range of 300 to 400 mm; retract remains a full stroke. This specific SKU has no magnet and cannot accept CMSG, DMSG or EMSG sensors, but the stainless steel construction provides mild corrosion resistance.
