The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ100 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ100X90-40S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 90mm 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 SAIJ100X90-40-S is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster. It features a 90 mm nominal stroke that can be fine-tuned down by up to 40 mm, creating a precise 50 to 90 mm usable travel window for exact end-position calibration. In the 100 mm bore class, it delivers a robust 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and 7068 N at 0.9 MPa.
This variant includes a magnet for position sensing and uses a standard carbon steel piston rod with an M20x1.5 rod thread. The extruded aluminum barrel incorporates sensor grooves on both sides, allowing you to mount AirTAC CMSE reed or DMSE electronic switches exactly where needed. It provides variable air cushions at both ends to decelerate heavy loads smoothly over the shortened travel distance.

Dial in the 50 to 90 mm travel window during production line changeovers to accommodate different package sizes without swapping cylinders.
Fine-tune the end-of-stroke position during commissioning to precisely set the pressing or clamping depth for high-force operations.
Use the rear adjuster to create variable mechanical stops for assembly stations requiring flexible part positioning within the same tooling.
Select this 100 mm bore adjustable cylinder when an application requires high thrust combined with variable end-stops during machine setup or product-size changeovers. If your process demands less force, stepping down to an 80 mm bore yields 2513 N of push force at 0.5 MPa; stepping up to 125 mm provides 6136 N. Choose this SAIJ model over a fixed-stroke SAI when you need to dial in the 50 to 90 mm travel window on the fly without adding external physical stops.
For an exact ISO 15552 dimensional replacement, match the 100 mm bore, 90 mm stroke, 40 mm adjustment, PT tapered port threads, and the -S magnet option. Mounting is supported via Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2 brackets. Because the nominal stroke is under 300 mm, side-load stress on the M20x1.5 rod is manageable, but an external guide remains best practice for heavy loads. Note that the rear adjuster acts only as a travel stop; it does not hold the load without live air. For positive load-holding, use an external rod lock or explore the SAIL or BSAI series.
Quick checklist
The rear adjuster acts as a mechanical stop that lets you trim the 90 mm nominal stroke back by up to 40 mm. This creates a usable travel window of 50 to 90 mm. It only sets the travel end and does not lock the load without continuous air pressure.
At 0.5 MPa, it provides 3927 N of push force and 3681 N of pull force. At 0.9 MPa, the push force increases to 7068 N, making it suitable for heavy-duty pressing and clamping tasks.
