The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ40 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ40BX220-20 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 220mm 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 SAIJ40X220-20 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster that permits up to 20 mm of end-position tuning. This yields a usable travel window of 200 to 220 mm, enabling precise calibration at commissioning without swapping the cylinder or adding external stops. It delivers 628 N of push force and 528 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa.
Equipped with a SUS304 stainless steel rod, this variant is well-suited for environments where corrosion resistance is a priority. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides, allowing direct mounting of position switches if needed later. It features a G1/4 port and a 30 mm variable air cushion at both ends to manage deceleration.

Dial in the exact end-of-stroke position during initial commissioning, trimming up to 20 mm to perfect the kinematics without machining external stop blocks.
Quickly adapt a packaging line to different carton lengths by adjusting the retract stop within the 200-220 mm travel window during product transitions.
Leverage the SUS304 stainless steel rod for light-duty positioning tasks in moist or mildly corrosive environments where a standard carbon steel rod would degrade.
Choose this 40 mm bore when an application requires around 628 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, stepping up from a 32 mm bore (402 N) for heavier loads, or down from a 50 mm bore (982 N) to save air volume. The adjustable stroke is ideal for machine setups requiring variable end stops or product-size changeovers. Note that the rear adjuster acts as a travel stop, not a lock; the cylinder will not hold a load without live air pressure. For load-holding requirements, consider the SAIL or BSAI series.
When replacing an ISO 15552 cylinder, match the 40 mm bore, 220 mm nominal stroke, 20 mm adjustment range, PT tapered port thread, and standard mounting interface. The SAIJ supports a reduced mounting set including Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR. With a 220 mm stroke, ensure proper guidance to prevent excessive side-loading on the rod.
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. At the maximum pressure of 1.0 MPa, it delivers 128 kgf.
A rear external screw acts as a mechanical stopper, allowing you to shorten the 220 mm nominal stroke by up to 20 mm, creating a usable travel window of 200 to 220 mm. This adjuster sets the end position but does not lock the load without live air pressure.
