The AirTAC SAIJ100 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ100BX260-100 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 260mm 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 SAIJ100X260-100 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear-mounted stroke adjuster. It provides a usable travel window of 160 to 260 mm, allowing you to dial back the nominal 260 mm stroke by up to 100 mm during commissioning.
Unlike a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder, this model lets you fine-tune the retract end position without swapping the barrel or adding external stops. The extruded aluminum profile includes sensor grooves on both sides for direct mounting of CMSE reed and DMSE electronic switches, though this specific SKU is supplied without a magnet. Remember that the rear adjuster acts purely as a travel stop, not a load-holding lock.

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 the stroke back by up to 100 mm to accommodate different package sizes on the same line without physically replacing the cylinder.
Fine-tune the retract stop during commissioning to dial in exact 160 to 260 mm travel distances for precision assembly tasks.
Set distinct retract positions for multi-stage forming or pressing operations using the rear adjustment screw rather than external hard stops.
Choose this 100 mm bore when your application requires substantial thrust—stepping down to an 80 mm bore drops the 0.5 MPa push force to 2513 N, while moving up to 125 mm yields 6136 N. The 100 mm adjustment range is ideal for machinery handling multiple product sizes, enabling rapid changeover without mechanical rebuilds. To replace an existing ISO 15552 cylinder, match the 100 mm bore, 260 mm stroke, 100 mm adjuster, PT G1/2 port, and preferred mounting from the SAIJ set: Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, or TCM2 (FB, CA, CB, and CR are omitted).
Because the total stroke reaches 260 mm, the 25 mm rod and M20x1.5 thread should be supported by an external guide to prevent excessive side-loading on the piston. If your process requires the load to be held mechanically without live air pressure, this standard SAIJ adjuster will not suffice; instead, specify an AirTAC SAIL pneumatic lock, a BSAI clamp-lock cylinder, or an external rod lock.
Quick checklist
At the maximum 1.0 MPa pressure, it delivers up to 801 kgf of push force.
The rear adjuster screw acts as a mechanical stop that lets you shorten the effective travel from the nominal 260 mm down to as little as 160 mm. This allows rapid end-position tuning without changing the cylinder or adding external stops.
