The AirTAC SAIJ40 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ40AX30-20 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 30mm stroke, G1/4 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. Its standardized mounting interface makes it interchangeable with other ISO 15552 cylinders at the mounting interface.
The AirTAC SAIJ40X30-20 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster that creates a highly versatile 10-30 mm usable travel window from its 30 mm nominal stroke.
This adjustable design allows operators to fine-tune the retract end-position during commissioning without adding external stops. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides for flexible mounting of CMSE reed or DMSE electronic switches, while the rear adjuster functions strictly as a travel stop, not a load-holding lock.

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.

Perfect for dialing in exact retract positions on clamping or ejecting mechanisms where a 10 to 30 mm travel window must be perfected during machine commissioning.
Allows operators to quickly adapt the cylinder's effective stroke when swapping short-stroke tooling on a production line, avoiding the need to physically replace the actuator.
Ideal for testing rigs and small assembly stations that require an external mechanical stop to be finely adjusted against a set point without re-engineering the fixture.
An adjustable stroke is ideal for machine setups requiring variable end-stops rather than committing to a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder.
Because the stroke is under 300 mm, side-load stress is minimal, though the 16mm rod and M12x1.25 thread handle standard loads effectively. Remember that the rear adjuster and air cushions only decelerate the travel end; the SAIJ does not hold position without live air. For load-holding without pressure, consider an external rod lock or the SAIL series. Mounting options are limited to Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, omitting FB and CA brackets.
Quick checklist
It operates at speeds between 30 and 800 mm/s, supported by 30mm air cushions at both ends.
The rear adjuster screw allows you to shorten the effective stroke by up to 20mm. This gives the SAIJ40X30-20 a usable travel window of 10 to 30mm, letting you fine-tune the end position at commissioning without swapping the cylinder. The adjuster acts only as a travel stop and does not lock the load.
