About the Airtac Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ32 SAIJ32AX260-40
The AirTAC SAIJ32X260-40 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, allowing you to dial back the 260 mm nominal travel by up to 40 mm for a usable 220-260 mm window. It delivers 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and pulls with 345 N, making it a solid fit for compact mid-range actuation. The extruded aluminum barrel features sensor grooves on both sides for flexible switch mounting.
This SKU ships with an SUS420J2 stainless steel rod (code A) for enhanced corrosion resistance compared to standard carbon steel. It uses a PT tapered port thread (G1/8) and supports speeds from 30-800 mm/s. The rear adjuster acts purely as a mechanical stop to decelerate the travel end; it does not lock the load, so holding a position without live air requires an external rod lock or a related SAIL cylinder.

Where the Airtac Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ32 SAIJ32AX260-40 Is Used
Machine Changeovers
Quickly fine-tune the 220-260 mm travel window during product size transitions on a packaging line without swapping cylinders.
Variable End-Stop Setup
Use the 40 mm rear adjuster screw to set precise retract positions for different tooling heights during initial commissioning.
Light Assembly Actuation
Leverage the 402 N push force at 0.5 MPa for compact pressing and indexing tasks where exact end-position control is critical.
Is the Airtac Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ32 SAIJ32AX260-40 the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 32 mm bore when your application needs the 402 N push force at 0.5 MPa, and stepping down to a smaller bore would be insufficient, or stepping up to a 40 mm bore (628 N push) would be overkill. The 40 mm adjustment range is ideal for machine setups requiring variable end-stops during product changeovers, avoiding the need to physically swap out a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder for fine-tuning.
Because the 260 mm stroke exceeds 300 mm? No, but at 260 mm you should still evaluate side loads. The 12 mm rod and M10x1.25 thread handle moderate stress, but long unsupported strokes demand an external guide rail to prevent premature seal wear. Ensure your setup matches the PT port thread, and note that because no -S magnet is specified, it will not directly trigger CMSE reed or DMSE electronic sensors without modification. The mounting interface supports Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2.

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 Adjust end cushion screws for smooth stops.
- check Use correct mounting accessory (FA/FB/CA/CB/LB/TC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ32 SAIJ32AX260-40 FAQ
The rear adjuster screw allows you to shorten the effective travel by up to 40 mm, creating a 220-260 mm usable window. It acts as a mechanical stop to set the end position but does not lock the load without continuous air pressure.
It provides 402 N of push force and 345 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa. This specific configuration features an SUS420J2 stainless steel rod (code A) for improved corrosion resistance over standard carbon steel.
