The AirTAC SAIJ100 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ100AX170-40S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 170mm stroke, G1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. Its standardized mounting interface makes it interchangeable with other ISO 15552 cylinders at the mounting interface.
The AirTAC SAIJ100X170-40-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, allowing you to dial back the 170 mm nominal stroke by up to 40 mm for a usable travel window of 130-170 mm. It delivers robust thrust, pushing 3927 N at 0.5 MPa and reaching 7068 N at 0.9 MPa, making it well-suited for heavy actuation tasks. This unit features a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod for enhanced corrosion resistance and includes a magnet for CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors.
The rear adjustment screw acts as a travel stop to fine-tune end positions at commissioning without adding external stops. It is not a locking device; the cylinder relies on live air pressure to hold loads. For applications requiring position holding without constant air, SAIL or BSAI variants are recommended. The extruded aluminum barrel provides standard ISO 15552 mounting interchangeability.

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.

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.
Dial in the 130-170 mm travel window during product size changes without physically replacing the cylinder or adding external mechanical stops.
Achieve precise pressing depths in assembly lines by trimming the stroke up to 40 mm, ensuring consistent results across varying component tolerances.
The adjustable stroke is ideal for product changeovers, allowing you to trim travel without swapping the cylinder.
This SAIJ100X170-40-S configuration includes a PT tapered port thread, a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod, and a magnet (-S) for position sensing. It supports the standard SAIJ mounting set (Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, TCM2). Since the 170 mm stroke is under the 300 mm threshold, side-load stress is moderate, but long unsupported loads should still use an external guide.
Quick checklist
The rear adjusting screw acts as a mechanical stop that lets you shorten the effective stroke by up to 40 mm, providing a usable travel window of 130-170 mm. This allows for fine-tuning the end position during setup without changing the cylinder.
At 0.9 MPa, the push force increases to 7068 N.
