The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ40 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ40BX850-100 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 850mm 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 SAIJ40X850-100 is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster. It provides a nominal 850 mm stroke that can be dialed back by up to 100 mm, yielding a usable travel window of 750-850 mm for precise end-position tuning at commissioning. Delivering 879 N of push force at 0.7 MPa, it features a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance and operates at speeds of 30-800 mm/s.
This extruded aluminum profile cylinder includes sensor grooves on both sides for flexible switch mounting. The rear screw acts purely as a travel stop to decelerate the piston alongside the standard air cushions, meaning it cannot hold a load without live air pressure. It supports a dedicated mounting set including Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2.

Dial in the 750-850 mm travel window during product size changes to set new end positions without physically swapping out the actuator.
Fine-tune the retract stroke at commissioning using the rear adjuster to absorb mechanical tolerances and achieve exact positioning.
Provide adjustable physical stops for long-stroke material handling tasks where the required travel distance varies between production runs.
Choose this 40 mm bore cylinder when an application requires 879 N push force at 0.7 MPa with variable end-stops, stepping up from a 32 mm bore (563 N) or down from a 63 mm bore (2182 N). The 100 mm adjustment window is ideal for product changeovers, allowing you to fine-tune the 850 mm travel without swapping the cylinder or adding external stops. Because the stroke is 850 mm, an external guide is recommended to prevent excessive side-loading on the rod.
For a direct ISO 15552 replacement, match the 40 mm bore, 850 mm stroke, 100 mm adjustment, PT tapered port threads, and the specified mounting hardware. Note that this configuration uses a SUS304 stainless steel rod and lacks a magnet, so position sensing is not supported without adding an -S variant. If true load-holding is required without continuous air pressure, consider the SAIL or BSAI series instead of relying on the rear stopper.
Quick checklist
The rear adjuster allows you to shorten the effective travel by up to 100 mm, creating a usable stroke window of 750-850 mm. It acts as a mechanical stop to set the end position and does not lock the load without live air pressure.
At an operating pressure of 0.7 MPa, the SAIJ40X850-100 provides 879 N of push force and 739 N of pull force. It can deliver up to 1130 N push force at 0.9 MPa.
