The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ40 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ40BX300-20S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 300mm 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 SAIJ40X300-20-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, providing a usable travel window of 280 to 300 mm. Delivering 628 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, it features a robust 16 mm SUS304 stainless steel rod and PT tapered port threading. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides, and the integrated -S magnet pairs directly with AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic solid-state switches for precise end-position detection.
This adjustable-stroke design lets you fine-tune the retract end-position at commissioning without swapping the cylinder or bolting on external stops. Because the stroke is 300 mm, the 16 mm rod will carry side loads better than a smaller bore, but an external guide is still recommended for unsupported lengths to prevent binding. The rear adjuster acts purely as a travel stop and deceleration setter, so it does not hold the load without live air pressure.

Dial in the 280-300 mm travel window during format changes without disassembling tooling or adding external mechanical stops.
Fine-tune the retract stroke at commissioning to absorb mechanical tolerances and hit exact positioning targets.
Move parts across a 300 mm stroke path while using the rear adjuster to shorten travel slightly for varied part sizes.
Choose this SAIJ40X300-20-S when your machine setup requires variable end-stops or product-size changeovers on a 300 mm stroke line. If you need less force, stepping down to a 32 mm bore yields 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. If your application requires higher thrust, stepping up to a 50 mm bore provides 982 N. The SAIJ mounting set includes Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, deliberately omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR brackets. For load-holding without live pressure, select the SAIL or BSAI series instead, as the SAIJ adjuster is not a lock.
This model is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552. Configuration details include a 40 mm bore, 300 mm nominal stroke, up to 20 mm adjustment, PT ports, and a -S magnet. The variable air cushions at both ends work alongside the rear mechanical stopper to absorb kinetic energy across the 30 to 800 mm/s speed range.
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 the maximum 1.0 MPa pressure, it can deliver up to 128 kgf.
The rear external screw acts as a stopper that lets you shorten the effective travel from the 300 mm nominal stroke down to 280 mm. This allows you to fine-tune the end position during setup without replacing the cylinder or adding external stops.
