The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ200 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ200AX160-40 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø200mm bore and 160mm stroke, G3/4 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 SAIJ200X160-40 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, allowing you to dial back the nominal 160 mm travel by up to 40 mm. This creates a precise 120-160 mm usable travel window, perfect for fine-tuning end positions during commissioning without swapping out the entire unit. It delivers massive thrust, pushing 15708 N and pulling 15080 N at 0.5 MPa.
This heavy-duty actuator features a robust 40 mm piston rod with an M36x2 thread, utilizing a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod material for enhanced durability against harsh environments. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides, and fluid is supplied via a G3/4 PT tapered port. It operates at speeds of 30-500 mm/s and relies on adjustable air cushions at both ends to decelerate the massive load smoothly.

Dial in the exact 120-160 mm pressing depth during commissioning to accommodate different material thicknesses without machining new hard stops.
Quickly adjust the retract end-position on a packaging line when switching to a new product size, minimizing downtime and keeping the ISO 15552 footprint intact.
Move massive assemblies into a workstation and fine-tune the resting position by up to 40 mm to align with downstream tooling perfectly.
Choose this 200 mm bore cylinder when your application requires extreme force, such as 15708 N of push thrust at 0.5 MPa, and you need the flexibility to vary the end-stop without external stops. If your setup does not require this level of power, stepping down to a 160 mm bore saves space while still providing 10053 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. The rear adjuster on this SAIJ model acts purely as a mechanical stop to set the travel end; it does not hold the load without live air pressure. For positive load-holding without continuous air, consider an AirTAC SAIL or BSAI cylinder.
Because the 160 mm stroke exceeds the 300 mm threshold where side-loading becomes a major concern, an external guide is recommended to support the rod and prevent premature seal wear. This model uses a PT tapered port thread and is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552. Mounting options are limited to the SAIJ subset: Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR brackets. As no magnet is specified, it will not work with CMSE or DMSE sensors without modification.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 200 mm bore cylinder provides a push force of 15708 N and a pull force of 15080 N. At the maximum 1.0 MPa pressure, it can deliver up to 3204 kgf of push force.
The rear adjuster screw acts as a mechanical stop, allowing you to shorten the 160 mm nominal stroke by up to 40 mm, resulting in a usable travel window of 120-160 mm. It only sets the travel end and does not lock the load without live air pressure.
