The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ40 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ40BX280-75S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 280mm 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 SAIJ40X280-75-S is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster. It provides a nominal 280 mm stroke that can be fine-tuned backward by up to 75 mm, creating a usable travel window between 205 and 280 mm. Delivering 879 N of push force at 0.7 MPa, it uses a PT G1/4 port and features a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance.
This variant includes a magnet for position sensing via CMSE reed or DMSE electronic switches. The extruded aluminum barrel integrates sensor grooves on both sides, and the mounting set includes Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2 options, omitting the FB, CA, CB, and CR interfaces.

Dial in the 205-280 mm travel window during product size changeovers on a packaging line without adding external mechanical stops.
Fine-tune the retract end-position at commissioning to achieve precise seating of 40 mm bore components without cylinder removal.
Utilize the integrated -S magnet with DMSE electronic sensors to confirm the adjusted end-stop position across the variable travel range.
Choose this 40 mm bore when you need 879 N of push thrust at 0.7 MPa, stepping up from the 32 mm bore (563 N) for heavier loads, or down from the 50 mm bore (1374 N) to save space. The 75 mm rear adjustment screw is selected over a fixed-stroke SAI when a machine requires variable end-stops for rapid product changeovers without swapping the physical cylinder.
Because the 280 mm stroke exceeds 300 mm only marginally, it sits close to the side-load threshold; ensure external guiding if heavy lateral loads are present. Note that the rear adjuster acts strictly as a travel stop and does not hold the load without live air. For true fail-safe load holding, select the SAIL or BSAI series instead. To match this ISO 15552 footprint exactly, specify: 40 mm bore, 280 mm stroke, 75 mm adjust, PT G1/4 port, and -S magnet.
Quick checklist
The 40 mm bore generates 628 N of push force and 528 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 879 N.
The rear adjuster screw allows you to shorten the effective travel from the 280 mm nominal stroke by up to 75 mm, providing a usable stroke range of 205-280 mm. It acts as a mechanical stop and does not lock the load without air pressure.
