The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ40 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ40BX850-50 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 SAIJ40X850-50 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear-mounted stroke adjuster. It provides a usable travel window of 800 to 850 mm, allowing you to dial back the nominal 850 mm stroke by up to 50 mm during commissioning. This 40 mm bore generates 628 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and uses a G1/4 port.
Equipped with a SUS304 stainless steel rod, this unit is built for environments where corrosion resistance is critical. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides for flexible switch mounting. It carries a 30 mm adjustable air cushion at both ends to manage kinetic energy, and the PT tapered port thread ensures a tight, reliable pneumatic connection.

Dial in the 800-850 mm travel window on the fly to accommodate different part lengths on a single assembly line without changing the cylinder.
Fine-tune the exact end-of-stroke position during machine setup to align tooling perfectly, eliminating the need for external mechanical stops.
Leverage the SUS304 stainless steel rod for reliable actuation in washdown or corrosive manufacturing areas where standard carbon steel rods fail.
Choose this specific 40 mm bore when your application requires 628 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. If your load demands less force, stepping down to a 32 mm bore yields 402 N; stepping up to a 50 mm bore provides 982 N. The 50 mm rear adjustment screw is selected over a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder when you need variable end-stops for product size changeovers without physically swapping the cylinder or adding external stops.
Because the 850 mm stroke is substantial, an external guide is recommended to prevent excessive side-loading on the rod. Remember that the rear adjuster acts only as a travel stop and the air cushions manage deceleration; neither will hold the load without live air pressure. For true load-holding, consider the SAIL or BSAI series. This model is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, uses PT port threads, and omits FB, CA, CB, and CR mounting options.
Quick checklist
At an operating pressure of 0.5 MPa, this 40 mm bore cylinder provides 628 N of push force and 528 N of pull force. It can reach up to 1130 N of push force at 0.9 MPa.
The rear adjuster screw lets you shorten the effective stroke from the nominal 850 mm down to 800 mm. This creates an 800-850 mm travel window for precise end-position tuning without replacing the cylinder.
