The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ40 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ40BX250-10 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 250mm 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 SAIJ40X250-10 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear-mounted stroke adjuster that allows you to fine-tune the travel end-point without adding external stops. With a nominal 250 mm stroke and a 10 mm adjustment range, it provides a usable travel window of 240-250 mm. It delivers 879 N of push force at 0.7 MPa, making it well-suited for medium-duty positioning tasks.
This specific configuration includes a SUS304 stainless steel rod (option B) for superior corrosion resistance and a PT tapered port thread. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides for flexible switch mounting. It supports a speed range of 30-800 mm/s and uses adjustable air cushions at both ends to decelerate the load smoothly.

Dial in the exact 240-250 mm travel window during machine commissioning to compensate for mechanical tolerances without swapping cylinders.
Quickly adjust the retract stop on packaging lines when switching between different product sizes that require slightly different stroke lengths.
Provides reliable 879 N push force at 0.7 MPa for pressing or indexing components, with a SUS304 rod for corrosive factory environments.
Choose this adjustable-stroke model when your assembly requires precise end-position tuning during commissioning or product changeover, rather than relying on a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder. If your application demands higher force, stepping up to the 50 mm bore yields 1374 N of push force at 0.7 MPa; stepping down to the 32 mm bore provides 563 N.
Because the 250 mm stroke exceeds the 300 mm threshold requiring external guidance, standard mounting is sufficient, though long unsupported loads should always use an external guide. 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. This SAIJ model uses a reduced mounting set (Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, TCM2) and is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552.
Quick checklist
The rear adjuster screw allows you to shorten the effective stroke by up to 10 mm from the nominal 250 mm, giving a usable travel window of 240-250 mm. This lets you fine-tune the end position at commissioning without changing the cylinder or adding external stops.
At 0.7 MPa operating pressure, this 40 mm bore cylinder provides 879 N of push force and 528 N of pull force. It can deliver up to 1130 N of push force at 0.9 MPa.
