The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ200 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ200AX240-20 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø200mm bore and 240mm 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 SAIJ200X240-20 is a double-acting, adjustable-stroke ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered for heavy-duty pneumatic tasks. It features a 240 mm nominal stroke paired with a 20 mm rear adjustment screw, providing a usable travel window of 220 to 240 mm. This allows operators to dial in the exact retract end-position during commissioning without swapping out the barrel or adding external stopper blocks. Delivering a robust 15708 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, it is built to move substantial masses with precision.
This model incorporates a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod for enhanced corrosion resistance and utilizes PT tapered port threads for a high-integrity pneumatic seal. As an extruded aluminum profile cylinder, it includes sensor grooves on both sides for mounting position switches. The rear adjuster acts purely as a travel stop to set deceleration and end-limits, meaning it will not hold the load safely without continuous live air pressure.

Fine-tune the 220-240 mm travel window during heavy press setups to perfectly time the deceleration of massive 15708 N loads without changing the cylinder.
Adapt the retract end-stop on the fly for different product sizes on a production line, using the 20 mm adjustment screw to accommodate varying material thicknesses.
Dial in the exact end-of-stroke position during initial machine build or maintenance, eliminating the need to bolt on custom external stoppers to find the perfect travel limit.
Selecting the SAIJ200X240-20 is ideal when an application requires extreme thrust—up to 15708 N at 0.5 MPa or 21991 N at 0.7 MPa—and on-the-fly end-position tuning. If an application demands less force, stepping down to a 160 mm bore drops the 0.5 MPa push force to 10053 N, which might better suit medium-heavy loads and reduce air consumption. Conversely, if the 240 mm stroke is fixed and requires no adjustment, a standard SAI cylinder offers the same footprint without the adjuster mechanism.
For load-holding requirements without constant air pressure, this cylinder is insufficient; the rear stopper is not a brake, so you must integrate an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve, or select the SAIL or BSAI series. Because this is a 240 mm stroke, side-load risks are moderate, but for any stroke of 300 mm or more, an external guide rail becomes strictly necessary to prevent rod binding. This SKU uses a PT port thread, supports the reduced SAIJ mounting set (Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, TCM2—omitting FB, CA, CB, CR), and ships without a magnet (-S omitted).
Quick checklist
At a 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 200 mm bore cylinder provides 15708 N of push force and 15080 N of pull force. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 21991 N.
The rear adjusting screw allows you to shorten the effective stroke by up to 20 mm, creating a 220 to 240 mm usable travel window. It acts as a mechanical stop to fine-tune the end position, but it is not a lock and requires live air to hold the load.
