The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ100 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ100BX270-20S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 270mm 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 SAIJ100X270-20-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster. It provides a usable travel window of 250-270 mm, allowing you to dial back the 270 mm nominal stroke by up to 20 mm during commissioning without adding external stops. In the 100 mm bore class, it generates 3927 N of push force and 3681 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa.
This unit includes a SUS304 stainless steel rod (option B) for corrosion resistance and a magnet for position sensing. You can mount AirTAC CMSE reed or DMSE electronic sensors directly into the extruded aluminum barrel grooves. The PT tapered port and M20x1.5 rod thread provide robust connections, while the integrated air cushions handle deceleration at travel ends.

Fine-tune the 250-270 mm travel window during product size changes without physically replacing the cylinder or bolting on external stopper blocks.
Dial in the exact retract end position during commissioning to perfect timing and avoid mechanical crashes in automated assemblies.
Leverage the 3927 N push force to move heavy pallets or fixtures, relying on the built-in air cushion to smoothly decelerate the load.
Choose this 100 mm bore when an 80 mm cylinder (2513 N push at 0.5 MPa) lacks thrust, but a 125 mm bore (6136 N) is excessive. The adjustable stroke is ideal for product changeovers, letting you fine-tune the retract end position on the fly instead of swapping a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder. Because the 270 mm stroke exceeds 250 mm, use an external guide to support the rod and prevent side-load wear.
The rear adjuster is a travel stop, not a lock; it cannot hold a load without live air pressure. For position holding, select an SAIL or BSAI cylinder. To match this ISO 15552 replacement exactly, specify: 100 mm bore, 270 mm stroke, 20 mm adjust, PT port, SUS304 rod, and the -S magnet. The mounting set includes Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 100 mm bore cylinder provides 3927 N of push force and 3681 N of pull force. At the maximum 1.0 MPa pressure, it can deliver up to 801 kgf.
The rear adjusting screw acts as an external stopper, letting you shorten the effective travel from the 270 mm nominal stroke down to 250 mm. It sets the end position but does not lock the load without live air.
