The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ40 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ40BX700-20 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 SAIJ40X700-20 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, letting you dial back the nominal 700 mm travel by up to 20 mm. This yields a usable 680-700 mm end-position window for fine-tuning at commissioning without adding external stops. It delivers 628 N of push force and 528 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, fitting a wide range of standard pneumatic tasks.
This variant features a SUS304 stainless steel rod (code B) for superior corrosion resistance and uses PT tapered port threads. It carries the standard SAI variable air cushions at both ends to decelerate the payload smoothly. Remember that the rear adjuster acts only as a travel stop; it does not hold the load mechanically without live air pressure.

Dial in the exact 680 to 700 mm retract distance during commissioning to perfectly align stops without swapping the cylinder.
Quickly adjust the end-of-stroke position up to 20 mm on a packaging line when handling slightly different carton sizes.
Use the fine-tuned travel window to precisely position a diverter gate, relying on the 628 N push force to move loads reliably.
Choose this 40 mm bore when you need more thrust than the 32 mm version (402 N push at 0.5 MPa) but less bulk than a 50 mm cylinder (982 N push). The adjustable stroke is ideal for product changeovers or setup refinement, letting you shift the end-stop by 20 mm directly on the machine. Because the nominal stroke is 700 mm, the 16 mm rod and M12x1.25 thread still require an external guide to prevent excessive side-loading on the seals.
For an exact ISO 15552 replacement, match the 40 mm bore, 700 mm nominal stroke, PT port threads, SUS304 (B) rod material, and the 20 mm adjustment range. Note that this SAIJ model uses a reduced mounting set (Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, TCM2) and omits FB, CA, CB, and CR brackets. If your application requires true load-holding without continuous air pressure, consider the SAIL or BSAI series instead.
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 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 879 N.
The rear adjuster screw lets you shorten the 700 mm nominal stroke by up to 20 mm, creating a 680-700 mm travel window. This stopper sets the end position but does not lock the load mechanically without air pressure.
