The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ40 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ40BX155-20S 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-S is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, providing a usable travel window of 135 to 155 mm. It delivers 879 N of push force and 528 N of pull force at 0.7 MPa, fitting mid-range automation tasks perfectly. The integrated -S magnet enables direct mounting of CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors along the dual side grooves of the extruded aluminum barrel.
This specific SKU utilizes a SUS304 stainless steel rod (code B) for superior corrosion resistance and features PT tapered port threads. The rear stopper mechanism allows precise end-position tuning during commissioning without adding external stops. Note that this adjuster acts strictly as a travel stop and does not hold the load without live air pressure.

Quickly reconfigure the 135-155 mm stroke end-stop during product size changeovers on a packaging line without swapping the entire actuator.
Fine-tune the retract end-position during initial machine commissioning to achieve precise mechanical alignment against hard stops.
Adjust the effective travel on the fly for diverter gates that need to accommodate varying package lengths on a conveyor system.
Select this 40 mm bore when an application requires finer end-position control than a fixed SAI cylinder offers, allowing you to dial in the exact 135-155 mm stroke on the fly. If your process demands greater thrust, stepping up to the 50 mm bore yields 1374 N at 0.7 MPa; conversely, dropping to a 32 mm bore reduces it to 563 N. Because the stroke is under 300 mm, side-load risks are moderate, but the 16 mm rod still requires external guiding for heavy lateral loads. For load-holding without continuous air, pair this cylinder with an external rod lock or explore the SAIL lock series.
To guarantee a direct ISO 15552 replacement, match the 40 mm bore, 155 mm nominal stroke, 20 mm adjustment range, PT G1/4 port, and -S magnet requirement. The SAIJ mounting set includes Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, deliberately omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR brackets.
Quick checklist
At 0.7 MPa operating pressure, this 40 mm bore cylinder provides 879 N of push force and 528 N of pull force. It can reach a maximum push force of 1130 N at 0.9 MPa.
The rear adjuster screw allows you to shorten the 155 mm nominal stroke by up to 20 mm, creating a usable travel window of 135 to 155 mm. This stopper only sets the travel end and does not lock the load without live air pressure.
