The AirTAC Airtac Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ32 SAIJ32AX290-20 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 290mm stroke, G1/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. Its standardized mounting interface makes it a drop-in replacement for other ISO 15552 cylinders in automation lines.
The AirTAC SAIJ32X290-20 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster that allows you to trim the effective travel by up to 20 mm. This creates a usable 270-290 mm travel window, enabling precise end-position tuning at commissioning without swapping out the unit. It delivers 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, utilizing a PT G1/8 port and a 12 mm SUS420J2 stainless steel rod for reliable performance.
The extruded aluminum barrel incorporates sensor grooves on both sides for direct mounting of CMSE reed or DMSE electronic switches if a magnet is later required. Mounting options include the reduced SAIJ set of Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, omitting FB and CA variants. The rear adjuster acts solely as a travel stop and does not hold the load without live air pressure.

Related SAI-family variants: SAID (double rod), SAIJ (adjustable stroke), SAIL (with lock), SAIF (with valve), BSAI (enclasp / clamp-lock), and SAI-S with built-in magnet. Rod material: carbon steel (blank) / SUS420J2 (A) / SUS304 (B); seals: TPU (blank) / Viton H / NBR N.
Fine-tune the 270-290 mm travel window during product size changes on a packaging line, dialing in the exact end position without adding external mechanical stops.
Adjust the retract position on the fly for a pneumatic diverter arm to accommodate different package widths arriving down the conveyor.
Trim the stroke by up to 20 mm to perfectly seat delicate components during assembly, preventing over-travel and crushing without recalibrating the entire machine.
Choose this 32 mm bore when your application requires 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and you need variable end-stops for product changeovers rather than a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder. If your setup needs higher thrust, stepping up to the 40 mm bore yields 628 N of push force. Because the 290 mm stroke is relatively long for this bore size, an external guide is recommended to prevent excessive side-loading on the 12 mm rod thread.
As a dimensionally interchangeable ISO 15552 cylinder, this model matches standard mounting footprints. It uses a tapered PT G1/8 port, SUS420J2 stainless steel rod material, and lacks a standard magnet. Note that the rear adjuster functions as a stop, not a lock; for true load-holding without live air, consider the SAIL or BSAI series.
Quick checklist
At an operating pressure of 0.5 MPa, this 32 mm bore cylinder provides 402 N of push force and 345 N of pull force. It can reach up to 724 N of push force at 0.9 MPa.
The rear adjuster screw allows you to shorten the 290 mm nominal stroke by up to 20 mm, providing a usable travel window of 270 to 290 mm. This stopper sets the end position but does not lock or hold the load without continuous air pressure.
