The AirTAC Airtac Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ32 SAIJ32BX500-20S 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-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, providing a usable travel window of 480 to 500 mm for precise end-position tuning. It delivers 402 N of push force and 345 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, utilizing a PT G1/8 port. This configuration includes a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance and a built-in magnet for CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors.
Because the adjuster acts solely as a mechanical stop to set the retract deceleration point, it does not hold the load without live air pressure. The extruded aluminum barrel features sensor grooves on both sides, and the mounting interface supports Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2 brackets, deliberately omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR options.

Quickly adjust the stroke length by up to 20 mm on packaging lines when transitioning between slightly different product dimensions.
Leverage the SUS304 stainless steel rod for reliable pushing and pulling in light-duty assembly tasks exposed to moisture.
Choose this 32 mm bore when an application requires lower thrust, stepping up to the 40 mm bore yields 628 N of push force at 0.5 MPa if greater rigidity is needed. An adjustable stroke is selected over a fixed SAI cylinder when commissioning requires fine-tuning the end stop without adding external shims or swapping components. To match this ISO 15552 footprint exactly, specify the 32 mm bore, 500 mm stroke, 20 mm adjustment, PT G1/8 port, and the -S magnet.
At 500 mm of travel, the 12 mm rod diameter requires careful alignment to prevent excessive side loading; an external guide rail is recommended for unsupported loads. For applications requiring true load-holding without continuous air pressure, consider the SAIL pneumatic lock or BSAI clamp-lock series instead of relying on the standard air cushion.
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. It can reach a maximum push force of 724 N at 0.9 MPa.
The rear adjuster screw allows you to shorten the nominal 500 mm stroke by up to 20 mm, creating a 480-500 mm travel window. It functions as a mechanical stop to fine-tune the end position and does not lock the load without air pressure.
