Airtac MIJ Adjustable Cylinder MIJ8X60-50
The AirTAC Airtac MIJ Adjustable Cylinder MIJ8X60-50 is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke round-body mini air cylinder with a Ø8mm bore and 60mm stroke, M5×0.8 air ports and a stainless-steel barrel and rod for mildly corrosive environments. Its ISO 6432 mounting interface makes it a compact drop-in for standard mini-cylinder fixtures.

About the Airtac MIJ Adjustable Cylinder MIJ8X60-50
Trimming the forward end by up to 50 mm via an external stop screw, this round-body stainless mini cylinder lets you set an exact 10 to 60 mm extend position on the fly. It is a double-acting unit built with a riveted stainless steel barrel and Ø4 mm rod, shrugging off mild washdown environments while dropping into standard ISO 6432 mini brackets.
Operating at 0.15 to 1.0 MPa through an M5x0.8 port, it generates 25.1 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, translating to a safe working load of about 15 N or a 1.3 kg vertical lift with a 2:1 margin. This SKU lacks the -S magnet, so it cannot host CMSG or DMSG sensors, and fixed TPU bumpers absorb the stroke end impacts.

Where the Airtac MIJ Adjustable Cylinder MIJ8X60-50 Is Used
Micro-Dispense Dial-In
Fine-tune the 10 to 60 mm extend stop to hit a precise nozzle height for viscous fluid deposits, maximizing the 25.1 N push force without overtravel.
Light-Part Shuttle Shift
Shift delicate electronics down a conveyor by adjusting the forward stop on site, safely moving roughly 1.3 kg of mass with a 2:1 vertical margin.
Changeover Pin Placement
Swap product runs and instantly shorten the extend stroke by up to 50 mm to locate a guide pin, avoiding the need to inventory multiple cylinders.
Is the Airtac MIJ Adjustable Cylinder MIJ8X60-50 the Right Cylinder?
When sizing this 8 mm bore against its neighbors, dropping down is not an option as it is the smallest available MIJ, but stepping up to a 16 mm bore raises the 0.5 MPa push force to 100.5 N if your payload exceeds the 15 N safe working load. The 50 mm adjustment window is ideal for taking up mechanical tolerances or covering multiple stop points in a changeover fixture without machining new parts.
Keep in mind the external screw only trims the extend stroke and acts purely as an end stop, not a mid-stroke lock; the piston will drift if air pressure is lost, so fit a pilot check valve if you need to hold a load vertically. You can use LB foot, FA flange or TC trunnion mounts, but the SDB pivot block is not offered on this adjustable variant.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT / G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Back cover (CA/U/R/CM) & mount (LB/FA/SDB/TC)
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Do not dismantle the riveted front/back covers.
- check Use correct back cover (CA/U/R/CM) & mount (LB/FA/SDB/TC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac MIJ Adjustable Cylinder MIJ8X60-50 FAQ
This 8 mm bore cylinder features an M5x0.8 port and delivers 25.1 N push / 18.8 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 35.2 N push / 26.4 N pull at 0.7 MPa, with a theoretical maximum force of 5.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
An external stop screw shortens the forward extend stroke by up to 50 mm, allowing you to set the end position between 10 and 60 mm while retract remains full. Because this SKU lacks the -S magnet, it cannot accept position sensors, and the stop screw is not a mid-stroke lock.
