The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ40 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ40BX45-40S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 45mm 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 SAIJ40X45-40-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster that allows you to trim the nominal 45 mm travel back by up to 40 mm. This creates a highly versatile 5 to 45 mm usable travel window, letting you dial in the exact end-of-stroke position at commissioning without swapping hardware. It delivers 628 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and uses a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance.
Equipped with a built-in magnet (-S), this unit supports AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors housed neatly in the dual-side sensor grooves. The rear stopper mechanism acts solely as a travel end-deceleration device alongside the variable air cushions, meaning it will not hold a load safely without live air pressure. For any load-holding requirements, a dedicated SAIL pneumatic lock or external pilot-operated check valve is required.

Dial in the 5 to 45 mm travel window instantly when switching product sizes on a packaging line, avoiding mechanical teardown.
Fine-tune the final retract position during machine commissioning using the rear adjuster rather than adding external stopper blocks.
Leverage the integrated magnet and DMSE electronic sensors to confirm the adjusted position profile during automated sequencing.
Choose this 40 mm bore when you need precise 5 to 45 mm travel tuning on a machine changeover, rather than machining custom spacers or buying a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder. If your process requires less than 5 mm of total travel, stepping down to a 32 mm bore (offering 402 N push force at 0.5 MPa) might provide a more compact footprint, but the 40 mm bore's M12x1.25 rod thread handles greater side loads. To match this ISO 15552 footprint exactly, specify the 40 mm bore, 45 mm stroke, 40 mm adjustment, PT tapered port, and the -S magnet. Mounting options are limited to Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2.
Quick checklist
At a standard 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 40 mm bore cylinder generates 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 cylinder has a 45 mm nominal stroke with a 40 mm rear adjustment mechanism. This allows the effective travel to be fine-tuned anywhere within a 5 to 45 mm window without changing the cylinder.
