The AirTAC SAIJ40 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ40AX50-40 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 50mm 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 SAIJ40X50-40 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear-mounted stroke adjuster. It provides a nominal 50 mm stroke that can be dialed back by up to 40 mm, yielding a highly versatile 10-50 mm usable travel window for precise end-position tuning.
This variant is configured with an SUS420J2 stainless steel rod for enhanced corrosion resistance and uses PT tapered port threads. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides, allowing you to add CMSE or DMSE switches later if position feedback becomes necessary.

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.

Dial in the exact 10 to 50 mm end-stop during line format changes without replacing the cylinder or adding external mechanical stops.
Fine-tune the retraction point at commissioning to perfectly seat parts, absorbing mechanical tolerances directly via the rear adjuster screw.
Vary the ejection stroke length on the fly for lightweight components, using the 40 mm adjustment range to safely push varying part sizes.
The adjustable 10-50 mm travel window is ideal for machine setups requiring frequent product changeovers, eliminating the need to physically swap cylinders or bolt on external stoppers. The PT port thread ensures a tight, tapered seal in standard pneumatic manifolds.
Remember that the rear adjuster functions strictly as a travel stop, not a locking device; it cannot hold a load without continuous live air pressure. For applications requiring true load-holding without air, consider an AirTAC SAIL or BSAI cylinder instead. Mounting options include Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2.
Quick checklist
The rear adjuster acts as a mechanical stop that trims the effective travel. Because the nominal stroke is 50 mm and the adjustment range is 40 mm, you can set the usable stroke anywhere within a 10 to 50 mm window without changing the cylinder itself.
