The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ40 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ40BX700-10 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 700mm 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 SAIJ40X700-10 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster that allows you to trim the effective travel by up to 10 mm. This creates a precise 690-700 mm usable window, enabling exact end-position calibration at commissioning without swapping out the cylinder or adding external stops. It delivers a solid 628 N push force at 0.5 MPa, making it well-suited for moderate-load positioning tasks.
This variant incorporates a SUS304 stainless steel piston rod for superior corrosion resistance and is fitted with PT tapered ports. It retains the standard SAI extruded aluminum barrel with sensor grooves on both sides, though it omits the magnet option. The rear adjuster functions purely as a mechanical stop to set the travel end and deceleration point alongside the air cushions; it does not hold the load without live air pressure.

Dial in the exact 690-700 mm end position during machine commissioning or product changeover without machining new stop blocks.
Fine-tune the retract stroke on the fly for assemblies requiring precise 10 mm adjustments to accommodate varying part tolerances.
Utilize the 700 mm travel for pushing or diverting loads on a conveyor line, with the rear screw allowing quick timing adjustments.
Choose this 40 mm bore when you need more thrust than a 32 mm bore (which provides 402 N push at 0.5 MPa) but want a lighter footprint than the 63 mm class (1559 N). The adjustable stroke is ideal for machine setups requiring variable end-stops or product-size changeovers, whereas a fixed SAI cylinder is better for rigid, unchanging repeat positions. Because the nominal stroke is 700 mm, the 16 mm diameter rod and M12x1.25 thread will carry a decent side load, but an external guide is still recommended for such a long unsupported length to prevent rod bending.
For load-holding applications without continuous live air pressure, this cylinder is not a lock; the rear adjuster only acts as a travel stop. You would need to look at the SAIL (air-released lock) or BSAI (clamp-lock) series instead. This SAIJ model is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552 mounting interfaces and supports a reduced mounting set including Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2 (omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR).
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, this 40 mm bore cylinder provides 628 N of push force and 528 N of pull force. At the maximum operating pressure of 1.0 MPa, it delivers up to 128 kgf.
The rear adjusting screw acts as a stopper that lets you shorten the 700 mm nominal stroke by up to 10 mm, creating a 690-700 mm usable travel window. It sets the end position but does not lock the load without live air.
