The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ40 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ40BX155-20 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 155mm 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 SAIJ40X155-20 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster that creates a 135-155 mm usable travel window. Delivering 628 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, it utilizes a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance and features PT tapered port threads.
This adjustable-stroke design allows you to fine-tune the retract end position during commissioning without adding external stops. The rear adjuster acts purely as a mechanical stop for deceleration alongside the standard air cushions; it is not a locking device and will not hold a load without continuous air pressure.

Dial in the exact retract distance within the 135-155 mm window during machine commissioning to perfect product placement without swapping hardware.
Quickly adjust the stroke by up to 20 mm to accommodate slightly different product sizes on a packaging line, minimizing downtime.
Use the precise end-stop to position clamping jaws accurately, relying on the 628 N force to hold workpieces securely during light machining.
Choose this 40 mm bore when you need more power than the 32 mm variant (402 N push at 0.5 MPa) but want a smaller footprint than the 50 mm option (982 N). The 20 mm adjustment range is perfect for machine setups requiring precise variable end-stops rather than a fixed SAI cylinder. To replace an ISO 15552 cylinder, match the 40 mm bore, 155 mm stroke, PT port threads, and mounting choice (Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, or TCM2). Because the stroke is under 300 mm, side-load risks are minimal, though the M12x1.25 rod thread handles standard loads effectively.
Quick checklist
At an operating pressure of 0.5 MPa, this 40 mm bore cylinder provides 628 N of push force and 528 N of pull force. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 879 N.
The rear adjuster screw lets you shorten the nominal 155 mm stroke by up to 20 mm, providing an effective travel range of 135 to 155 mm. This stopper only sets the end position and does not lock the load without live air pressure.
