The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ40 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ40AX950-20S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 950mm stroke, G1/4 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 SAIJ40X950-20-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, enabling precise end-position tuning without external stops. It provides a usable travel window of 930 to 950 mm, making it highly effective for product changeovers on automated lines. Delivering 628 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, it handles medium-duty positioning with reliability.
This variant features a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance and includes an integrated magnet for CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors. The extruded aluminum barrel incorporates sensor grooves on both sides for flexible mounting. Because the 950 mm stroke is a non-standard made-to-order length, the robust 16 mm rod and M12x1.25 thread are essential to manage deflection over this extended travel distance.

Fine-tune the 930-950 mm retract position during product size transitions to avoid repositioning physical stopper hardware.
Manage long-stroke actuation on conveyor sorting gates where exact end-of-travel positioning varies by package dimensions.
Use the rear screw to set precise lower limits on extended-stroke assembly stations, compensating for tooling wear over time.
Selecting this adjustable-stroke model over a fixed SAI cylinder allows operators to dial in the exact retract end-position during commissioning, absorbing mechanical tolerances without machining external stopper blocks. If your application requires less push force, the 32 mm bore offers 402 N at 0.5 MPa; conversely, stepping up to the 50 mm bore yields 982 N for heavier payloads.
When configuring your ISO 15552 replacement, verify the 40 mm bore, 950 mm stroke, 20 mm adjustment, PT tapered ports, and the -S magnet. The SAIJ mounting set includes Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, deliberately omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR. For any stroke of 300 mm or more, an external guide is strongly recommended to prevent side-load damage. Remember that the rear adjuster is a travel stop, not a lock; to hold loads without live air pressure, consider the SAIL or BSAI series.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 40 mm bore cylinder provides 628 N of push force and 528 N of pull force. It can reach up to 1130 N of push force at 0.9 MPa.
The rear adjuster screw allows you to shorten the nominal 950 mm stroke by up to 20 mm, providing a usable travel window of 930 to 950 mm. This stopper decelerates the end position but does not lock the load without live air pressure.
