Airtac MIJ Adjustable Cylinder MIJ8X60-50S
The AirTAC Airtac MIJ Adjustable Cylinder MIJ8X60-50S 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 MIJ8X60-50S
Dial in a precise forward end position on the spot with the AirTAC MIJ8X60-50S, a round-body stainless steel mini cylinder built for light-duty tasks. An external stop screw lets you shorten the extend stroke by up to 50 mm on-site, meaning one part number can cover several forward stops without swapping hardware. Retract remains a full 60 mm stroke, and the Ø4 mm piston rod terminates in an M4x0.7 male thread.
Built to the ISO 6432 mounting interface, this Ø8 mm bore unit drops into standard mini brackets and clevises. The stainless barrel and rod resist mild corrosion and washdown environments. Delivering 25.1 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, it handles a safe working load of roughly 15 N, or about a 1.3 kg vertical lift with a 2:1 safety margin. The -S suffix denotes a built-in piston magnet, enabling position sensing with CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG switches.

Where the Airtac MIJ Adjustable Cylinder MIJ8X60-50S Is Used
Micro-actuation
Drives small pneumatic fingers or micro-grippers that need a dialed-in forward reach to pick delicate electronic components without crushing them.
Staged Diverter
Pushes lightweight small parts off a belt at a precise distance, using the 50 mm adjust window to tune the deflection angle for different product sizes.
Lab Automation
Moves sample trays or test probes in washdown-resistant stainless steel fixtures, relying on the 15 N safe working load for smooth, repeatable cycling.
Is the Airtac MIJ Adjustable Cylinder MIJ8X60-50S the Right Cylinder?
For lighter duty, the MIJ8X60-50S provides 25.1 N push at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to a Ø10 bore increases that to 39.3 N if your application demands more force. The adjustable stop screw is invaluable for taking up mechanical tolerances during setup or staging feeds, but remember it only trims the extend end. This cylinder does not hold position on air loss; the piston will drift, so fit an external rod lock or pilot check valve if you need to maintain a load. Mounting options include LB foot, FA flange, and TC trunnion (SDB is not offered on this variant), and the air port is M5x0.8.
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 MIJ8X60-50S FAQ
This double-acting cylinder delivers 25.1 N push and 18.8 N pull at 0.5 MPa, increasing to 35.2 N push and 26.4 N pull at 0.7 MPa. The theoretical maximum force is 5.1 kgf at 1.0 MPa. It uses an M5x0.8 air port.
An external stop screw shortens the extend stroke by up to 50 mm, letting you set the exact forward end position without changing the cylinder; retract remains a full 60 mm. The -S suffix means it has a built-in piston magnet for use with CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors.
