The AirTAC SAIJ100 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ100BX290-20S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 290mm 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 SAIJ100X290-20-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster that creates a 270 to 290 mm usable travel window. The integrated magnet supports CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors, fitting neatly into the extruded aluminum barrel's dual sensor grooves.
This adjustable model allows precise end-position tuning during commissioning without adding external stops. It uses a reduced mounting set of Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, omitting the FB, CA, CB, and CR options. The rear adjuster functions purely as a travel stop and deceleration point, meaning it will not hold the load without live air pressure.

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.

Dial in the 270-290 mm travel window during initial commissioning to achieve precise end-positioning without machining external stopper blocks.
Quickly adjust the retract stop to accommodate different package sizes on a conveyor line, reducing downtime between production runs.
Use the variable end-stop alongside the standard air cushions to test and set the optimal deceleration profile for moving loads.
The 20 mm adjustment range is ideal for product changeovers on a packaging line, letting you dial in the exact end-stop without swapping the cylinder. For true load-holding without continuous air pressure, consider the SAIL pneumatic lock or BSAI clamp-lock cylinders instead.
Because the 290 mm stroke exceeds 300 mm when fully extended, you must account for potential side loads. The 25 mm rod and M20x1.5 thread provide robust resistance, but an external guide rail is recommended to prevent binding over long unsupported travels. This SAIJ variant is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, using a tapered PT port and the -S magnet option.
Quick checklist
At 0.9 MPa, the push force increases to 7068 N.
The rear adjuster acts as a mechanical stop, allowing you to shorten the 290 mm nominal stroke by up to 20 mm, resulting in a 270 to 290 mm usable travel window.
