The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ40 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ40BX240-100S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 240mm 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 SAIJ40X240-100-S is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster. It provides a 240 mm nominal stroke that can be dialed back by up to 100 mm, yielding a highly flexible 140-240 mm usable travel window. Delivering 628 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, it fits seamlessly into dimensionally interchangeable ISO 15552 mounting footprints.
This specific SKU features a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance, PT tapered ports, and an integrated magnet for position sensing. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides, allowing you to easily mount CMSE reed or DMSE electronic solid-state switches anywhere along the travel path.

Dial in the exact end-position during format size changes on a packaging line, utilizing the 140-240 mm travel window without adding external mechanical stops.
Fine-tune the retract end-position at commissioning to perfect sensor trigger points using the rear screw, avoiding complete cylinder replacements.
Achieve precise lower-end positioning for assembly tooling, relying on the 100 mm adjustment range to adapt the stroke to varying part dimensions.
Choose this 40 mm bore when you need 628 N push force at 0.5 MPa; step down to a 32 mm bore (402 N) for lighter duties, or up to a 50 mm bore (982 N) if your load demands more thrust. The generous 100 mm rear adjuster is perfect for machine setups requiring variable end-stops or product-size changeovers without swapping the physical cylinder. Mounting options include the reduced SAIJ set of Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR. Because the 240 mm stroke exceeds 300 mm? No, but for any long stroke, ensure external guides support the load to prevent side-loading. The rear adjuster acts strictly as a travel stop and does not hold the load without live air; for true load-holding, select a SAIL or BSAI cylinder.
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 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 879 N.
The rear adjuster acts as a mechanical stop that shortens the retract stroke by up to 100 mm, creating a usable travel window of 140 to 240 mm. It only sets the travel end and does not lock the load without live air pressure.
