The AirTAC Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ32 SAIJ32AX550-50S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 550mm stroke, G1/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. Its standardized mounting interface makes it interchangeable with other ISO 15552 cylinders at the mounting interface.
The AirTAC SAIJ32X550-50-S is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear mechanical stroke adjuster. By turning the rear stopper screw, you can dial back the 550mm nominal stroke to establish a precise 500-550mm usable travel window without adding external stops.
This adjustable-stroke variant includes a piston magnet for position sensing with AirTAC CMSE reed or DMSE solid-state switches. It uses a PT G1/8 tapered port and retains the standard extruded aluminum barrel with dual sensor grooves. The rear adjuster acts purely as a travel stop to fine-tune deceleration; it does not hold the load without live air pressure.

Double-rod model: the rod passes through the rear cover, so both piston faces lose rod area and push is shown at the annular-area value. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a safety margin.

Dial in the exact retract position within the 500-550mm window during initial machine commissioning, avoiding the need to machine custom spacers or swap cylinders for minor positional corrections.
Quickly adapt the retract end-stop on automated lines when switching between product variants, using the 50mm adjustment range to accommodate different part lengths on the fly.
Provide a finely tuned physical stop for conveyor sorting mechanisms where the exact retraction distance must be calibrated to the millimeter to prevent downstream collisions.
The 50mm adjustment window is ideal for tuning the retract end-position at commissioning rather than swapping a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder.
Because the 550mm stroke is relatively long for a 32mm bore, the 12mm rod and M10x1.25 thread will carry moderate side loads, but an external guide is recommended to prevent rod binding. To replace this cylinder with another ISO 15552 unit, match the 32mm bore, 550mm stroke, 50mm adjustment, PT G1/8 port, and -S magnet. For load-holding without live air, use an external rod lock or choose the SAIL or BSAI series instead.
Quick checklist
At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 563N.
The rear adjuster screw acts as a mechanical stop that lets you shorten the 550mm nominal stroke by up to 50mm, creating a 500-550mm usable travel window. It sets the end position but does not lock the load without continuous air pressure.
