The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ40 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ40BX85-30S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 85mm 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 SAIJ40X85-30-S is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster. It delivers 628 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and features a PT tapered port thread. By turning the rear screw, you achieve a usable travel window of 55 to 85 mm, allowing precise end-position tuning without adding external stops.
This variant includes a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance and an integrated magnet (-S) for position sensing. It works seamlessly with AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic solid-state switches mounted into the dual-side sensor grooves on the extruded aluminum barrel. The adjuster acts purely as a mechanical stop to set the retract distance, so live air pressure is required to maintain the load.

Dial in the exact retract distance between 55 and 85 mm during machine setup to accommodate varying material thicknesses without swapping hardware.
Quickly re-adjust the stroke window on automated packaging lines when switching between different product dimensions, minimizing downtime.
Leverage the SUS304 stainless steel rod for reliable clamping and positioning in environments where moisture or mild chemicals are present.
Select this 40 mm bore when an application requires fine-tuning the retract end-point during commissioning or product changeover, rather than relying on a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder. If your setup 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 under 300 mm, side-load stress on the 16 mm rod is manageable, though external guides remain recommended for heavy off-center loads.
To match this ISO 15552 dimensionally interchangeable cylinder, confirm the 40 mm bore, 85 mm nominal stroke, 30 mm adjustment range, PT ports, and the -S magnet option. The SAIJ mounting set includes Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, deliberately omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR brackets. For applications requiring true load-holding without continuous air pressure, consider an AirTAC SAIL or BSAI cylinder instead, as the SAIJ adjuster is not a locking mechanism.
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 acts as a mechanical stop, allowing you to shorten the effective stroke from its 85 mm nominal length down to as little as 55 mm. It sets the travel end-point but does not lock or hold the load without continuous air pressure.
