The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ40 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ40BX230-100S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 230mm 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 SAIJ40X230-100-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster that allows you to fine-tune the effective travel down from the 230 mm nominal stroke to a 130 mm minimum. This yields a 100 mm adjustable window for precise end-position tuning during commissioning. Delivering 628 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, it fits medium-duty workflows.
This variant uses a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance and includes a piston magnet for position sensing with AirTAC CMSE (reed) and DMSE (solid-state) switches. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides, and the G1/4 PT port ensures reliable pneumatic connectivity.

Select this 40 mm bore model when your application requires a 628 N push force at 0.5 MPa; step down to a 32 mm bore (402 N push) for lighter loads, or up to a 50 mm bore (982 N push) when you need higher thrust. The 100 mm adjustment range is ideal for machine setups requiring variable end-stops or frequent product-size changeovers, eliminating the need to swap out a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder.
Because the 230 mm stroke exceeds 300 mm total travel when fully extended, ensure you use an external guide to prevent excessive side-loading on the M12x1.25 rod thread. The rear adjuster acts only as a travel stop and does not hold the load without live air pressure; for true load-holding, consider the SAIL or BSAI series. Mounting options are limited to Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2.
Quick checklist
The rear adjuster screw allows you to shorten the effective stroke by up to 100 mm. This creates a usable travel window between 130 mm and 230 mm, letting you fine-tune the end position at commissioning without changing the cylinder.
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, it provides 628 N of push force and 528 N of pull force. At the maximum 1.0 MPa pressure, the push force increases to 1130 N.
