The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ40 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ40BX225-30 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 225mm 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 SAIJ40X225-30 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster that allows you to trim the effective travel back by up to 30 mm. This yields a usable stroke window of 195 to 225 mm, providing precise end-position tuning at commissioning without the need to swap out the entire barrel or bolt on external stops. Delivering 879 N of push force at 0.7 MPa, it is built with a SUS304 stainless steel rod and a PT tapered port thread for robust pneumatic connectivity.
This profile cylinder incorporates adjustable air cushions at both ends to manage deceleration, but it is crucial to note that the rear adjuster acts only as a travel stop, not a load-holding lock. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides for flexible switch mounting, and the mounting interface supports Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2 attachments.

Dial in the 195-225 mm travel window during line changeovers to accommodate varying product sizes without physically replacing the actuator.
Fine-tune the retract end-stop during initial commissioning to achieve exact positioning, eliminating the mechanical slop of external stops.
Pair the 30 mm rear mechanical stop with the integrated adjustable air cushion to precisely manage the kinetic energy of moving loads at the end of travel.
Choose this 40 mm bore when an application requires more thrust than a 32 mm bore (which provides 563 N at 0.7 MPa) but does not necessitate stepping up to a 50 mm bore (1374 N at 0.7 MPa). The adjustable stroke is ideal for machine setups requiring variable end stops or product changeovers, offering flexibility that a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder cannot provide. If your application demands load holding without live air pressure, this cylinder will not suffice; instead, consider the SAIL air-released lock or BSAI clamp-lock variants. For ISO 15552 replacement matching, ensure the 225 mm stroke, 30 mm adjustment range, PT port, and appropriate mounting accessories are specified.
Quick checklist
At an operating pressure of 0.7 MPa, the 40 mm bore generates 879 N of push force and 528 N of pull force. The maximum push force reaches 1130 N at 0.9 MPa.
The rear adjuster screw allows you to shorten the 225 mm nominal stroke by up to 30 mm, creating an effective travel window of 195 to 225 mm. This stopper sets the end position but does not lock the load without live air pressure.
