The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ40 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ40BX950-20S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 950mm 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 SAIJ40X950-20-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, allowing you to fine-tune the retract end position by up to 20 mm. This creates a usable travel window of 930-950 mm, giving you precise control over the final end-stop without swapping out the entire actuator. It delivers 628 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and features a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance.
Because this 950 mm stroke approaches the maximum standard limit for this bore, the M12x1.25 rod thread provides a robust interface, though an external guide is still recommended for long unsupported loads. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides, and the integrated magnet supports AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic solid-state switches for exact position feedback.

Dial in the exact 930-950 mm end-stop during product size changeovers without adding external stopper blocks to the machine frame.
Precisely position diverters on a conveyor line, using the rear adjuster to compensate for mechanical drift over time.
Apply up to 628 N of force at 0.5 MPa for light pressing tasks, fine-tuning the retract position to accommodate varying part heights.
Choose this 40 mm bore when you need more force than a 32 mm cylinder (which provides 402 N push at 0.5 MPa) but want to avoid the larger footprint of a 50 mm option. The adjustable stroke is ideal for machine setups requiring variable end-stops or product changeovers, functioning as a physical stop rather than a load-holding lock. If your application requires the load to be held without live air pressure, consider the SAIL or BSAI series instead.
To match this ISO 15552 interchangeable cylinder, confirm the 40 mm bore, 950 mm stroke, 20 mm adjustment, PT tapered port threads, and the -S magnet option. Mounting hardware is available in a reduced set including Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2 (omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR).
Quick checklist
The rear adjuster acts as a mechanical stop that lets you shorten the effective stroke by up to 20 mm, providing a usable travel window of 930-950 mm. It only sets the travel end and does not lock or hold the load without continuous air pressure.
At a 0.5 MPa operating pressure, the SAIJ40X950-20-S generates 628 N of push force and 528 N of pull force. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 879 N.
