The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ40 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ40BX450-40S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 450mm 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 SAIJ40X450-40-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear-mounted stroke adjuster. It provides a usable travel window of 410-450 mm, allowing you to dial back the 450 mm nominal stroke by up to 40 mm during commissioning without adding external stops. In the 40 mm bore class, it delivers 628 N of push force and 528 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa.
This variant includes a SUS304 stainless steel rod for corrosion resistance and a -S magnet for position sensing with AirTAC CMSE reed or DMSE electronic switches. It uses PT tapered ports sized G1/4, and the extruded aluminum barrel incorporates sensor grooves on both sides. The rear adjuster functions strictly as a travel stop to fine-tune the end position, not as a load-holding lock.

Dial in the 410-450 mm travel window during product size transitions to set new end positions quickly without physically swapping the cylinder.
Fine-tune the retract stroke by up to 40 mm at commissioning to perfectly align tooling offsets without machining custom spacers.
Adjust the stopping point on a moving conveyor line to accommodate different package lengths without adding external mechanical stops.
Choose this adjustable-stroke model over a fixed SAI when your setup requires variable end-stops for product changeovers or precise end-position tuning. If your application needs less force, stepping down to a 32 mm bore yields 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa; stepping up to a 50 mm bore provides 982 N. Because the stroke is 450 mm, the M12x1.25 rod should be guided externally to prevent excessive side-loading and premature seal wear.
For an exact ISO 15552 replacement, match the 40 mm bore, 450 mm stroke, 40 mm adjustment code, PT port thread, and -S magnet. Remember that a plain SAIJ does not hold its position without live air pressure—the rear adjuster only sets the travel end. For true load-holding without continuous air, consider an AirTAC SAIL or BSAI cylinder.
Quick checklist
At 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 1130 N of push force.
A rear adjusting screw acts as a stopper, allowing you to shorten the effective stroke from 450 mm down to a minimum of 410 mm. This creates a 40 mm adjustable window for fine-tuning the end position at commissioning.
