The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ40 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ40BX230-50S 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 SAIJ40X230-50-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring an external rear stopper that allows you to fine-tune the travel end. It provides a usable stroke window of 180 to 230 mm, letting you dial in the exact retract position without adding external stops. This 40 mm bore generates 879 N of push force at 0.7 MPa and uses a PT tapered port thread.
Built with a SUS304 stainless steel rod (code B), it handles splash and corrosion exposure better than carbon steel. The integrated -S magnet works seamlessly with AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors fitted into the dual-side barrel grooves. The rear adjuster acts purely as a travel stop for end-position tuning, not a lock, so it cannot hold the load without live air pressure.

Related SAI-family variants: SAID (double rod), SAIJ (adjustable stroke), SAIL (with lock), SAIF (with valve), BSAI (enclasp / clamp-lock), and SAI-S with built-in magnet. Rod material: carbon steel (blank) / SUS420J2 (A) / SUS304 (B); seals: TPU (blank) / Viton H / NBR N.
Dial in the 180-230mm retract position during product size changes without replacing the cylinder or bolting on external stops.
The -S magnet pairs with AirTAC CMSE and DMSE switches in the profile grooves for precise end-of-stroke detection.
The SUS304 stainless steel rod option provides reliable actuation in washdown or corrosive manufacturing settings.
Choose this adjustable-stroke model when a machine setup requires variable end stops or product changeover flexibility, avoiding the need to physically swap a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder. If your application needs less force, stepping down to a 32 mm bore yields 563 N at 0.7 MPa; if you need more thrust, a 50 mm bore provides 1374 N.
For a drop-in ISO 15552 replacement, match the 40 mm bore, 230 mm nominal stroke, 50 mm adjustment range, PT ports, and the -S magnet option. Mounting options include Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2. Because the stroke is 230 mm, ensure adequate guidance to prevent side-load wear on the rod.
Quick checklist
At 0.7 MPa, the 40 mm bore provides 879 N of push force and 528 N of pull force. It can deliver up to 1130 N push at 0.9 MPa.
The rear adjuster acts as a mechanical stop, allowing you to shorten the effective travel anywhere within a 180 to 230 mm window. It only sets the end position and does not lock the load without live air pressure.
