The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ100 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ100X270-20 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 is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster. It provides a 250-270 mm usable travel window by allowing you to dial back the 270 mm nominal stroke by up to 20 mm without adding external stops. In the 100 mm bore class, it generates 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and 7068 N at 0.9 MPa, making it well-suited for heavy-duty positioning tasks.
This extruded aluminum profile barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides for CMSE reed and DMSE electronic switches. The carbon steel rod features an M20x1.5 thread, and the cylinder uses a PT tapered G1/2 port. The integrated air cushions at both ends decelerate the load, but the rear adjuster acts only as a travel stop, not a lock, so live air pressure is required to hold the load in place.

Quickly fine-tune the 250-270 mm travel window during product size changeovers on a packaging line without physically remounting the actuator.
Leverage the 7068 N push force at 0.9 MPa to move heavy pallets or fixtures into exact final positions with repeatable accuracy.
Use the rear adjuster to set precise lower limits for pressing operations, ensuring consistent depth without altering the main pneumatic circuit.
Choose this 100 mm bore adjustable-stroke cylinder when your application demands high thrust (3927 N push at 0.5 MPa) alongside precise end-position tuning during commissioning or product changeover. If your force requirements are lower, stepping down to an 80 mm bore yields 2513 N of push force, whereas moving up to a 125 mm bore provides 6136 N. The SAIJ100X270-20 is selected over a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder when you need a variable end-stop to fine-tune the travel window without physically swapping the cylinder.
Because the 270 mm stroke exceeds 300 mm only marginally, standard external guiding is still recommended to manage side loads on the M20x1.5 rod. For true load-holding without continuous air pressure, this standard cylinder will not suffice; you should instead consider an AirTAC SAIL (pneumatic lock) or BSAI (clamp-lock) cylinder. To match this ISO 15552 interchangeable cylinder, specify the 100 mm bore, 270 mm stroke, 20 mm adjustment, PT G1/2 port, and your preferred mounting accessory from the SAIJ set: Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, or TCM2.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, this 100 mm bore cylinder provides 3927 N of push force and 3681 N of pull force. At 0.9 MPa, the push force increases to 7068 N.
The rear adjusting screw acts as a mechanical stop that lets you trim the effective travel back by up to 20 mm from the 270 mm nominal stroke, creating a 250-270 mm usable window. It only sets the end position and does not lock the load without live air pressure.
