The AirTAC Airtac Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ32 SAIJ32AX500-20 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 500mm stroke, G1/8 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 SAIJ32X500-20 is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster. It provides a 500 mm nominal stroke that can be fine-tuned down by up to 20 mm, creating a precise 480-500 mm usable travel window. Delivering 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, it suits lighter-duty positioning tasks.
This unit features a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod for improved corrosion resistance and uses PT tapered port threads with a G1/8 connection. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides for flexible switch mounting. Note that the rear adjuster functions strictly as a travel stop for end-position tuning, not as a load-holding lock.

Dial in the 480-500 mm travel window during format changes on packaging lines without replacing the cylinder.
Fine-tune the retract position precisely at commissioning to avoid mechanical hard stops.
Actuate lightweight routing flaps or stops using 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa.
Choose this 32 mm bore when an application requires a 402 N push force at 0.5 MPa combined with on-the-fly stroke trimming. The 20 mm adjustment window is ideal for product changeovers or dialing in exact end positions without swapping cylinders or adding external stops. If your setup needs greater thrust, stepping up to the 40 mm bore yields 628 N. Conversely, if you require load holding without live air pressure, a plain SAIJ will not suffice; consider an AirTAC SAIL or BSAI locking cylinder instead.
Because this model features a 500 mm stroke, the 12 mm diameter piston rod is highly susceptible to side-loading. An external guide rail should be installed to prevent rod binding and premature seal wear. For ISO 15552 mounting interface replacements, match the 32 mm bore, 500 mm stroke, PT port, and mounting style. Available mounts include Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 32 mm bore cylinder provides 402 N of push force and 345 N of pull force. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 563 N.
The rear adjuster acts as a stopper that lets you shorten the effective stroke by up to 20 mm. This provides a usable travel window of 480-500 mm, allowing precise end-position tuning without changing the cylinder.
