The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ40 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ40BX1000-20 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 1000mm 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 SAIJ40X1000-20 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster that allows you to fine-tune the end position without swapping components. With a 1000 mm nominal stroke and a 20 mm adjustment range, it provides a usable travel window of 980 to 1000 mm. This bore size delivers 628 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, making it well-suited for moderate load handling over extended distances.
This unit is configured with a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance and ships without a magnet. It uses PT tapered ports and offers variable air cushions at both ends to manage kinetic energy. The rear adjuster acts purely as a travel stop to dial in the retract position during commissioning; it does not lock the load without continuous air pressure.

Dial in the 980-1000 mm retract position precisely during product size changes without machining new hard stops.
Pushes moderate loads along long material handling conveyors using 628 N of thrust at 0.5 MPa.
Leverages the SUS304 stainless steel rod for reliable actuation in environments requiring high corrosion resistance.
Choose this 40 mm bore when you need the 628 N thrust at 0.5 MPa but want to avoid the larger footprint and 982 N force of a 50 mm cylinder. The adjustable stroke is ideal for machine setups requiring precise end-position tuning during product changeovers, replacing the need for fixed-stroke SAI cylinders or external stops. To match this cylinder for an ISO 15552 replacement, verify the 1000 mm stroke, 20 mm adjustment, PT G1/4 port, and your required mounting set (Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, or TCM2).
Because the stroke is 1000 mm, the 16 mm rod needs external guidance to prevent excessive side-loading and sagging over that long unsupported distance. Remember that the rear adjuster only sets the travel end and is not a locking device; for load-holding without live air, consider an external rod lock or a SAIL cylinder.
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 effective stroke by up to 20 mm, creating a 980 to 1000 mm usable travel window. It functions as a mechanical stop for end-position tuning and does not hold the load without live air pressure.
