The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ40 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ40BX250-100S 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 SAIJ40X250-100-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster. By dialing back the nominal 250 mm stroke by up to 100 mm, you gain a highly flexible 150-250 mm usable travel window for fine-tuning end positions during machine setup. It delivers 628 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and features a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance.
This adjustable-stroke model omits the FB, CA, CB, and CR mounting interfaces, retaining a focused set of Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2 mounts. The integrated -S magnet pairs directly with AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE solid-state sensors fitted into the dual-side barrel grooves, while the PT tapered ports ensure a tight pneumatic seal.

Dial in the 150-250 mm travel window during product size transitions without physically swapping out the entire cylinder.
Fine-tune the retract end position at commissioning using the rear stopper, avoiding the need to add external hard stops.
Leverage the SUS304 stainless steel rod and 628 N force for reliable actuation in washdown or mildly corrosive manufacturing environments.
Choose this 40 mm bore when an application requires precise variable end-stops and a 628 N push force at 0.5 MPa, stepping down from a 50 mm bore (982 N push) to save space, or up from a 32 mm bore (402 N push) for higher load capacity. The rear adjuster screw is a travel stop, not a locking mechanism; it will not hold the load without live air, so consider a SAIL or BSAI cylinder if true fail-safe holding is required.
Because the 250 mm stroke is substantial for a 40 mm bore, the 16 mm rod and M12x1.25 thread will experience amplified side-load stresses if the piston is unsupported. Always guide the load externally to prevent rod binding. To match this ISO 15552 replacement exactly, specify the 40 mm bore, 250 mm stroke, 100 mm adjustment, PT port thread, SUS304 (B) rod material, and the -S magnet option.
Quick checklist
At a 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 40 mm bore cylinder provides 628 N of push force and 528 N of pull force. It can reach up to 1130 N of push force at 0.7 MPa.
The rear adjusting screw acts as a mechanical stop that shortens the effective travel. For this SAIJ40X250-100-S model, it creates a usable stroke window ranging from 150 mm to 250 mm without changing the cylinder mount.
