The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ40 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ40BX900-20 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 900mm 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 SAIJ40X900-20 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear-mounted stroke adjuster. It delivers 628N of push force and 528N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, using a G1/4 port. The built-in rear stopper allows you to fine-tune the effective travel window from 880 to 900 mm without adding external physical stops to your machine frame.
This specific SKU is configured with a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance and features PT tapered port threads. It shares the standard extruded aluminum barrel with sensor grooves on both sides. Mounting options include Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, deliberately omitting the FB, CA, CB, and CR foot and pivot styles.

Dial in the 880 to 900 mm end-stop precisely during product size changes without swapping out the entire actuator or reworking the frame.
Pushes loads with 628N of force at 0.5 MPa, using the rear adjuster to compensate for slight mechanical drift in long-stroke conveyor routing.
Leverage the SUS304 stainless steel rod for corrosion resistance while fine-tuning the final clamping position during assembly line commissioning.
Choose this 40mm bore when an application requires a 628N push force at 0.5 MPa, which sits neatly between the 402N of a 32mm bore and the 982N of a 50mm bore. The adjustable stroke is ideal for product changeovers or commissioning setups where the exact end-of-stroke position needs precise dialing-in. Because the 900mm stroke is substantial, an external guide is highly recommended to prevent excessive side-loading on the rod and thread.
Remember that the rear adjuster functions strictly as a travel stop, not a lock; it cannot hold a load without live air pressure. For true load-holding requirements without continuous air, consider the SAIL or BSAI series. This cylinder is dimensionally interchangeable with ISO 15552 cylinders and uses a PT port. No magnet is specified for this configuration, so CMSE or DMSE sensors cannot be used without modification.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 40mm bore cylinder provides 628N of push force and 528N of pull force. At 0.9 MPa, the push force increases to 1130N. The standard operational speed range is 30-800 mm/s.
The rear adjuster screw acts as a mechanical stop that lets you shorten the nominal 900mm stroke by up to 20mm, creating a usable travel window of 880 to 900mm. It only sets the end position and deceleration; it does not lock the load without live air pressure.
