The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ40 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ40BX375-40 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 375mm 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 SAIJ40X375-40 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster that allows you to fine-tune the effective travel anywhere within a 335 to 375 mm window. Delivering 628 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, it is built with a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance and uses PT tapered port threads. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides.
Because the nominal stroke is 375 mm, the 16 mm rod and M12x1.25 rod thread should be paired with an external guide to handle potential side loads. This adjustable model omits the FB, CA, CB, and CR mounts, offering a reduced set of ISO 15552 attachments (Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, TCM2) to simplify machine integration.

Quickly reconfigure the end-of-stroke position for different product lengths on a packaging line without replacing the entire actuator.
Fine-tune the 335-375 mm travel window during commissioning to perfect the seating force of a pressing operation.
Adjust the retract stop distance on the fly to handle varying package sizes as they move down an assembly conveyor.
Choose this 40 mm bore when you need more thrust than the 32 mm version (402 N at 0.5 MPa) but want to avoid the larger footprint of a 50 mm cylinder. The adjustable 335-375 mm travel window is ideal for product changeovers, letting you dial in the exact end position without swapping cylinders or adding external stops. At 375 mm, the stroke is well within the 1200 mm maximum for this bore, but an external guide is recommended to support the rod.
For a drop-in ISO 15552 replacement, match the 40 mm bore, 375 mm stroke, 40 mm adjustment range, PT ports, and your required mounting hardware. Note that the rear adjuster acts only as a travel stop and does not hold the load without live air; if you need true load-holding, consider the SAIL or BSAI series instead.
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 0.9 MPa.
The rear adjuster screw allows you to shorten the effective travel by up to 40 mm, creating a usable stroke window of 335 to 375 mm. It acts as a physical stop to set the end position and is not a lock, meaning the cylinder requires live air to hold its load.
