About the Airtac Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ32 SAIJ32BX170-100S
The AirTAC SAIJ32X170-100-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster that allows you to trim the nominal 170 mm travel back by up to 100 mm, creating a highly flexible 70-170 mm usable window. Delivering 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, it suits light-duty positioning tasks. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides for straightforward switch mounting.
This configuration uses a SUS304 stainless steel rod for enhanced corrosion resistance and ships with a magnet for CMSE or DMSE sensors. The rear adjuster acts purely as a mechanical stop to fine-tune the retract end position during commissioning; it does not lock or hold the load without continuous air pressure. For load-holding requirements, an external pilot-operated check valve or an SAIL lock cylinder is required.

Where the Airtac Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ32 SAIJ32BX170-100S Is Used
Product Changeover
Dial in the exact retract distance from 70 to 170 mm during format changes on packaging lines without replacing the cylinder.
End-Position Tuning
Fine-tune the final retract stop during machine commissioning to perfect sensor alignment and part seating.
Variable Stops
Act as an adjustable physical stop for lightweight items moving along a handling conveyor.
Is the Airtac Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ32 SAIJ32BX170-100S the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 32 mm bore when your application needs 402 N push force at 0.5 MPa and significant on-the-fly stroke variability, such as accommodating multiple product sizes on one conveyor line. If your process requires less than 70 mm travel, step down to a physically smaller cylinder, and if you need higher force, stepping up to the 40 mm bore yields 628 N. The PT tapered port and G1/8 thread size match standard ISO 15552 fittings.
Unlike a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder, this adjustable model eliminates the need to swap hardware or bolt on external stops when changing machine setups. The mounting footprint supports Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2 accessories. Because the 170 mm stroke is relatively short, side-load risks are minimal, but always guide the rod end thread (M10x1.25) properly to prevent binding.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/NPT/G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Side load — consider a guided cylinder
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 SAIJ32BX170-100S FAQ
The rear adjuster screw lets you shorten the effective stroke by up to 100 mm, providing a usable travel window of 70 to 170 mm. It functions as a mechanical stop for end-position tuning and does not hold the load without live air pressure.
At 0.5 MPa it provides 402 N of push force and 345 N of pull force. The -S option includes a magnet compatible with AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic solid-state sensors.
