The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ100 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ100BX260-30 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 a drop-in replacement for other ISO 15552 cylinders in automation lines.
The AirTAC SAIJ100X260-30 is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear-mounted stroke adjuster. It provides a nominal 260 mm stroke that can be fine-tuned backward by up to 30 mm, creating a precise 230-260 mm usable travel window for commissioning flexibility.
Delivering 7068 N of push force at 0.9 MPa, this 100 mm bore actuator handles heavy loads. It features a SUS304 stainless steel rod for corrosion resistance, dual-sided sensor grooves, and variable air cushions at both ends to decelerate moving masses smoothly.

Dial in the 230-260 mm travel window during format changes on packaging lines without adding external mechanical stops.
Fine-tune the retract stroke at machine commissioning to perfectly time the 7068 N push force against mechanical stops.
Leverage the 100 mm bore thrust and SUS304 rod for robust pressing operations requiring washdown corrosion resistance.
Select this 100 mm bore actuator when an application requires substantial thrust—stepping down to an 80 mm bore yields 4523 N at 0.5 MPa, while this model provides 3927 N at the same pressure. The adjustable stroke is chosen over a fixed SAI cylinder when machinery requires variable end-stops or product changeover without physically swapping the actuator. Mounting utilizes a reduced SAIJ set: Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2 (omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR). Threaded ports are PT type.
Because the stroke is 260 mm, an external guide is recommended to prevent excessive side-loading on the rod. Note that the rear adjuster acts solely as a travel stop and does not hold the load without live air; for true load-holding without pressure, consider an external rod lock or AirTAC SAIL or BSAI cylinders.
Quick checklist
At 0.9 MPa, this 100 mm bore cylinder generates 7068 N of push force and 3681 N of pull force. It can deliver a maximum of 801 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
A rear screw stopper trims the effective retract travel back by up to 30 mm from the 260 mm nominal stroke, providing a 230-260 mm adjustable window. It functions as a stop, not a lock, and requires live air to maintain position.
