The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ40 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ40X275-30 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø40mm bore and 275mm 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 SAIJ40X275-30 is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear-mounted stroke adjuster. It delivers 628N of push force at 0.5 MPa and uses a standard carbon steel piston rod with a PT tapered port thread. This model provides a usable travel window of 245 to 275mm, allowing you to dial back the nominal 275mm stroke by up to 30mm during machine commissioning.
Instead of swapping out the entire cylinder or fabricating external stops to fine-tune the retract end position, the integrated rear screw lets you set the exact travel limit on the fly. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides, and because no magnet is specified here, you would add the -S option if you need to track position with CMSE reed or DMSE electronic sensors.

Choose this 40mm bore when a 32mm cylinder (providing 402N push at 0.5 MPa) lacks thrust, but a 63mm bore (1559N) would be excessive physical overkill. The adjustable 245-275mm window is perfect for applications requiring variable end-stops or frequent product-size changeovers, giving you flexibility that a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder cannot match. When replacing an ISO 15552 unit, verify the 275mm stroke, 30mm adjustment range, PT port thread, and your preferred mounting bracket from the available SAIJ set: Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, or TCM2.
Because the 275mm stroke is relatively long, the 16mm rod should be adequately supported by an external guide to prevent excessive side-loading and premature seal wear. Remember that the rear adjuster functions strictly as a travel stop, not a locking device; the cylinder cannot hold a load without live air pressure, so consider an AirTAC SAIL or BSAI model if true load-holding is required.
Quick checklist
The rear adjuster acts as a mechanical stop that lets you shorten the effective travel from the 275mm nominal stroke down to 245mm. It provides a 30mm tuning window for precise end-positioning without needing external stops.
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, it provides 628N of push force and 528N of pull force. If you increase the pressure to 0.7 MPa, the push force rises to 879N.
