The AirTAC Airtac JSIJ32~50 Adjustable Cylinder JSIJ40X400-40S is a genuine double acting, adjustable stroke JIS-standard air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 400mm stroke, G1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. Its no-tie-rod, hard-anodized profile barrel is more compact than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same bore — a space-saver on tight machines.
Delivering 628 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, this 40 mm bore JIS profile cylinder features an external adjuster that lets you shorten the extend stroke on-site by up to 40 mm. The nominal 400 mm stroke remains the maximum travel, giving you a usable extend window of 360 to 400 mm for fine-tuning the end position without swapping the actuator. Built with an extruded hard-anodized aluminum barrel, it is noticeably shorter and more compact than a same-bore ISO 15552 cylinder. The G1/4 port feeds the double-acting single-rod system, and the -S suffix means a built-in magnet is ready for CMSE/DMSE sensors in the side grooves.
In practical terms, it handles a safe working load of about 377 N, which translates to lifting roughly 32 kg vertically with a 2:1 safety margin. Adjustable air cushions of 20.5 mm at each end absorb kinetic energy near the stroke limits. Remember that the cushion only decelerates the piston; a plain cylinder cannot hold a load on air loss, so fit an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve if you need strict positioning.

Dial in the exact 360 to 400 mm extend reach to push mixed-size cartons onto the correct lane without re-mounting the actuator.
Adjust the extend stop on-site to set the precise fill depth for varying container heights on a single packaging line.
Fine-tune the extend endpoint to interface with slightly misaligned shelf heights in automated storage and retrieval systems.
When sizing this actuator, compare the 40 mm bore against its neighbors: a 32 mm bore yields 402 N push at 0.5 MPa for lighter duties, while a 50 mm bore steps up to 982 N for heavier cycles. The adjustable stroke is ideal when you need to dial in a precise end position on the machine or want a single spare part to cover slight stroke variations across similar stations. You can mount it using FA, LB, TC, TCM1, or TCM2 brackets. Because the -S option includes a piston magnet, you can drop CMSE or DMSE reed and electronic switches directly into the barrel grooves. At a 400 mm stroke, always support the load with an external guide to prevent rod bending and premature seal wear from side loads.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it provides 628 N push and 528 N pull. At 0.7 MPa it provides 879 N push and 739 N pull. The theoretical maximum force is 128 kgf at 1.0 MPa. This 40 mm bore cylinder uses a G1/4 air port and a 16 mm rod with an M14x1.5 thread.
The external adjuster lets you shorten the extend stroke by up to 40 mm on-site, giving a usable extend range of 360 to 400 mm. The nominal 400 mm stroke is the maximum travel, and the retract end remains fixed. This mechanism sets the end position and does not lock the load.
