SMC CJ2D1630AZ (CJ2D16-30AZ) - Mini Air Cylinder, 16mm Bore, 30mm Stroke
SMC CJ2D1630AZ Mini Air Cylinder — 16mm bore, 30mm stroke, double acting single rod, double clevis (D) mount, with AIR CUSHION (suffix A) instead of the standard rubber bumper - this is what separates it from CJ2D1630Z (rubber bumper, double acting) and CJ2D1630TZ (single acting, spring extend). WITHOUT built-in magnet (no leading D in CDJ2), so it is NOT auto-switch capable. SMC CJ2D16-30AZ is a CJ2-Z series mini air cylinder, standard type, double acting, single rod, with air cushion. Bore 16 mm, standard stroke 30 mm. Mounting style D = double clevis, mounted perpendicular to the cylinder axis. The A suffix before Z is SMC's air cushion symbol (CJ2 Bore - Stroke A Z), giving adjustable end-of-stroke deceleration via a cushion needle and cushion ring in place of the standard rubber bumper. Head cover port location perpendicular to axis. Piping port M5 x 0.8. Fluid: air. Proof pressure 1 MPa, maximum operating pressure 0.7 MPa, minimum operating pressure 0.1 MPa with air cushion. Ambient and fluid temperature -10 to 70 degC without auto switch (no freezing). Piston speed with air cushion 50 to 1000 mm/s. Allowable kinetic energy with air cushion 0.18 J (16 mm bore, effective cushion length 9.4 mm). Stroke length tolerance +1.0/0 mm. Non-lube operation. Because the part number has no leading D (CDJ2), this cylinder is supplied WITHOUT a built-in magnet and cannot accept auto switches; order the CDJ2D16-30AZ equivalent if magnet/auto-switch sensing is needed.

CJ2D16-30AZ Applications
The air cushion version is chosen when a ø16 mini cylinder must run faster or carry more inertia than a rubber bumper can absorb, so it suits high-cycle transfer arms, flippers, ejectors and swinging linkages where end-of-stroke impact and noise would otherwise shorten cylinder life. Cushion needles allow deceleration to be tuned on site. The double clevis mount handles pivoting loads. No built-in magnet is fitted, so auto switches cannot be used on this model.
