The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ40 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ40BX165-10S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 165mm 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 SAIJ40X165-10-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, allowing you to fine-tune the retract end-position during commissioning. It provides a usable travel window of 155-165 mm, giving you precise 10 mm of flexibility without needing external stops. In the 40 mm bore class, it delivers a 0.7 MPa push force of 879 N and a pull force of 528 N at 0.5 MPa, making it well-suited for moderate load positioning tasks.
This variant features a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance and includes a built-in magnet for position sensing. It is compatible with AirTAC CMSE reed switches and DMSE solid-state electronic sensors fitted into the dual-side sensor grooves on the extruded aluminum barrel. The PT tapered port thread and M12x1.25 rod thread ensure secure, leak-free connections while handling standard side loads effectively.

Dial in the exact 155-165 mm retract position during product size changeovers without adding external mechanical stops to your fixture.
Fine-tune the end-of-stroke location during machine commissioning to perfect timing and avoid mechanical crashes.
Leverage the SUS304 rod and DMSE electronic sensors for reliable position feedback in environments requiring high corrosion resistance.
Choose this adjustable-stroke model over a fixed SAI cylinder when your machine setup requires variable end-stops or product-size changeovers without physically swapping the actuator. If your application needs less force, the 32 mm bore offers 563 N of push force at 0.7 MPa; if you require more power, stepping up to the 50 mm bore yields 1374 N.
For an exact ISO 15552 replacement match, verify the 40 mm bore, 165 mm stroke, 10 mm adjustment range, PT port thread, and the -S magnet option. Remember that the rear adjuster acts strictly as a travel stop, not a lock; this cylinder will not hold a load without live air pressure. For load-holding requirements without continuous air, consider using an external pilot-operated check valve or the SAIL locking series.
Quick checklist
At 0.7 MPa, this 40 mm bore cylinder provides a push force of 879 N and a pull force of 739 N. It operates at speeds ranging from 30 to 800 mm/s.
The rear adjuster screw acts as a mechanical stop that lets you shorten the effective stroke by up to 10 mm, creating a usable travel window of 155 to 165 mm. It functions only as a travel stop and does not lock or hold the load without continuous air pressure.
