The AirTAC SAIJ100 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ100AX400-100 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 400mm 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.
It features an extruded aluminum barrel with sensor grooves on both sides and a rear-mounted stroke adjuster. With a nominal 400mm stroke and a 100mm adjustment range, this unit provides a versatile 300-400mm usable travel window for precise end-position tuning.
This model is equipped with a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod (option A) for enhanced corrosion resistance and PT tapered port threads. The rear stopper screw allows you to dial back the extension distance during commissioning or product changeovers without swapping the cylinder or adding external stops. The adjuster acts strictly as a travel stop and works alongside the standard variable air cushions at both ends to control deceleration.

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.

Quickly dial in the 300-400mm travel window using the rear stopper when switching between product sizes on the line, avoiding mechanical rebuilds.
Fine-tune the extension end position during initial commissioning to perfect the tooling approach without fabricating custom external spacers.
Because the nominal stroke is 400mm, you must account for side-loading on the 25mm rod; an external guide is recommended to support the load over this extended travel. For load-holding without live air pressure, note that the rear stopper is not a lock—you would need to look at the SAIL or BSAI series instead.
When replacing an ISO 15552 cylinder, match the 100mm bore, 400mm nominal stroke, 100mm adjustment code, G1/2 port, and your required mounting style. The SAIJ supports a reduced mounting subset of Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR options. Since this configuration lacks the -S magnet, it will not work with CMSE or DMSE sensors without a model change.
Quick checklist
If you increase the operating pressure to 0.9 MPa, the push force reaches 7068N.
The rear adjuster screw lets you shorten the effective travel from the 400mm nominal stroke down to 300mm. It acts as a mechanical stop to set the exact end position, but it does not lock the load without continuous air pressure.
