The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ40 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ40BX30-20S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 30mm 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 SAIJ40X30-20-S is a double-acting, single-rod profile cylinder dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552. It features a rear adjusting screw that lets you fine-tune the stroke at commissioning, providing a usable travel window of 10-30mm from its 30mm nominal length. In the 40mm bore class, it delivers 879N of push force at 0.7 MPa and 528N of pull force.
This unit is built with a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance and includes a piston magnet (-S) for position sensing. You can mount AirTAC CMSE reed or DMSE electronic solid-state switches in the extruded aluminum barrel sensor grooves. The PT tapered port and integrated air cushions manage end-of-stroke energy safely.

Dial in the exact 10-30mm travel distance during initial commissioning to perfectly time the machine cycle without adding external stopper blocks.
Quickly adjust the end-position on a packaging line when switching to a different product size, saving downtime by using the built-in rear screw.
Achieve precise end-stops for light-duty pressing or indexing applications, relying on the 879N force and the 20mm adjustment range for accuracy.
Choose this 40mm bore adjustable cylinder when you need to dial in a precise end-stop during machine setup or product changeover without swapping the entire unit. If your application requires less force, stepping down to a 32mm bore yields 563N of push at 0.5 MPa; for heavier loads, a 50mm bore provides 1374N at 0.7 MPa. The rear adjuster acts purely as a mechanical travel stop and does not hold the load without live air pressure—use an AirTAC SAIL or BSAI lock cylinder for fail-safe holding. Mounting options include Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2.
Quick checklist
The rear adjuster screw lets you shorten the effective travel by up to 20mm, creating a usable stroke window of 10-30mm from the 30mm nominal stroke. This allows fine-tuning of the end position without changing the cylinder.
At 0.7 MPa operating pressure, this double-acting cylinder provides 879N of push force and 528N of pull force. It can deliver up to 1130N of push force at 0.9 MPa.
