The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ40 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ40BX120-10S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 120mm 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 SAIJ40X120-10-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, allowing you to fine-tune the end-of-travel position without adding external stops. With a nominal 120 mm stroke and a 10 mm adjustment screw, it provides a usable travel window of 110-120 mm to perfectly dial in machine stops during commissioning. This bore size delivers 628 N of push force and 528 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa.
Built for demanding environments, this specific configuration features a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance and includes a magnet for position sensing. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides, seamlessly accepting AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic solid-state switches. It uses PT tapered ports sized G1/4 and achieves speeds from 30-800 mm/s.

Dial in the exact 110-120 mm travel distance during machine commissioning to perfect positioning without swapping cylinders.

Leverage the SUS304 stainless steel rod for precise actuation in food processing or chemical environments requiring washdowns.
Choose this 40 mm bore when you need precise end-position tuning on the fly, stepping up from a 32 mm bore (which provides 402 N push at 0.5 MPa) to gain extra thrust without a massive footprint increase. The adjustable rear stopper is ideal for product changeovers on a line, whereas a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder would require physical shimming or swapping. To replace an ISO 15552 cylinder, match the 40 mm bore, 120 mm stroke, 10 mm adjuster, PT G1/4 ports, and the -S magnet. Since the stroke is under 300 mm, side-load risks are minimal, but always guide the load for optimal bearing life.
Remember that the rear adjuster acts purely as a mechanical stop and does not hold the load without live air pressure. If your application requires true fail-safe load holding, consider the AirTAC SAIL pneumatic lock or BSAI clamp-lock cylinder instead of relying on the standard SAIJ adjuster.
Quick checklist
It features a rear stopper screw that allows you to shorten the effective stroke by up to 10 mm. This creates a 110-120 mm adjustable travel window, letting you fine-tune the retract end position at commissioning without external shims.
At a standard 0.5 MPa operating pressure, the SAIJ40X120-10-S 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.
