The AirTAC Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ32 SAIJ32AX120-40 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 120mm stroke, G1/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. Its standardized mounting interface makes it interchangeable with other ISO 15552 cylinders at the mounting interface.
The AirTAC SAIJ32X120-40 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear-mounted stroke adjuster that allows you to shorten the effective travel. It provides a usable stroke window of 80 to 120 mm, enabling precise end-position tuning at commissioning without adding external stops. In this configuration, the piston rod is constructed from SUS420J2 stainless steel (code A), and the fluid connections use PT tapered threads.
The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides for direct mounting of position switches. It is important to note that the rear adjuster functions strictly as a travel stop and does not hold the load without live air pressure.
When selecting this model, the 40 mm adjustment range is ideal for applications requiring variable end-stops or frequent product-size changeovers, offering flexibility that a fixed-stroke SAI cannot match. If your application requires higher thrust, stepping up to a 40 mm bore increases the push force at 0.5 MPa to 628 N. Conversely, if you need load-holding capabilities without continuous air pressure, this cylinder will not suffice; you should consider the SAIL (air-released lock) or BSAI (clamp-lock) variants instead. To replace this ISO 15552 cylinder, match the 32 mm bore, 120 mm stroke, 40 mm adjustment, PT ports, and the SUS420J2 rod material.
The SAIJ32X120-40 supports a reduced mounting set including Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, omitting the FB, CA, CB, and CR options. Because the 12 mm rod and M10x1.25 thread carry limited side-load capacity, external guiding is recommended for any heavy offset loads.

Double-rod model: the rod passes through the rear cover, so both piston faces lose rod area and push is shown at the annular-area value. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a safety margin.

Dial in the exact 80-120 mm travel end-stop during commissioning without adding external physical stops to the machine frame.
Quickly adjust the retract length by up to 40 mm when running a new product size on the line, minimizing downtime.
Choose the SAIJ32X120-40 when you need fine-tuning of the retract position during machine setup without swapping the entire cylinder. The 40 mm adjustment window allows you to dial in the exact end-stop on the fly, which is critical for product changeovers. If your changeover requirements are less demanding, a fixed SAI cylinder might suffice, but this adjustable model provides superior flexibility. For load-holding without live pressure, point your design to SAIL or BSAI variants, as the rear adjuster here is only a stop, not a lock.
Quick checklist
The maximum push force reaches 724 N at 0.9 MPa.
The rear adjuster allows you to shorten the 120 mm nominal stroke by up to 40 mm, creating a usable travel window of 80 to 120 mm. It acts as a mechanical stop and does not lock the load without live air pressure.
