The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ40 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ40X270-30S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 270mm 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 SAIJ40X270-30-S is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster. It delivers 628N of push force at 0.5 MPa and features a 240-270mm usable travel window, letting you dial back the nominal 270mm stroke by up to 30mm during machine commissioning. The integrated magnet (-S) supports position sensing via AirTAC CMSE reed or DMSE electronic solid-state switches mounted in the dual-side sensor grooves.
Unlike a fixed-stroke SAI unit, this adjustable model uses an external rear stopper to fine-tune the retract end position without adding external stops. The extruded aluminum barrel maintains a standard ISO 15552 mounting footprint. The PT tapered port thread and carbon steel rod are standard for this 40mm bore class, operating reliably at speeds between 30-800mm/s.

Fine-tune the 240-270mm retract position on packaging lines when switching between different product sizes without swapping hardware.
Dial in the exact end-of-stroke position during machine commissioning using the rear screw, avoiding the need for external mechanical stops.
Leverage the integrated magnet with CMSE or DMSE sensors to confirm adjustable end positions in automated assembly fixtures.
Choose this 40mm bore cylinder when you need 628N push force at 0.5 MPa but require variable end-stops for product changeovers. If your application demands less force, the 32mm bore offers 402N; for heavier loads, the 50mm bore provides 982N. Because the 270mm stroke exceeds 300mm is false here, but always ensure adequate guiding for longer travels. To replace an ISO 15552 cylinder, match the 40mm bore, 270mm stroke, 30mm adjustment, PT port thread, and the -S magnet requirement.
The rear adjuster acts strictly as a travel stop, not a lock. It cannot hold a load without live air pressure. If your setup requires true load-holding without continuous air, consider the AirTAC SAIL pneumatic lock or BSAI clamp-lock cylinder series instead. The SAIJ mounting set includes Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR options.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 40mm bore cylinder provides 628N of push force and 528N of pull force. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 879N.
The rear adjuster screw allows you to shorten the effective stroke by up to 30mm, creating a 240-270mm usable travel window. It acts as a mechanical stop to set the end position and does not lock the load without air pressure.
