The AirTAC Airtac Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ32 SAIJ32BX550-50S 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 a drop-in replacement for other ISO 15552 cylinders in automation lines.
The AirTAC SAIJ32X550-50-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster, allowing you to dial back the 550 mm nominal travel to a precise 500-550 mm window during commissioning. It delivers 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and reaches speeds between 30-800 mm/s. Equipped with a SUS304 stainless steel rod and a -S magnet, it supports CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors via grooves on both sides of the extruded aluminum barrel.
This adjustable-stroke design eliminates the need to swap cylinders or bolt on external stops when tuning end positions. The rear adjuster acts purely as a travel stop and deceleration point, meaning it will not hold the load without live air pressure. For load-holding requirements, consider the SAIL or BSAI series instead. It uses a reduced mounting set (Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, TCM2) and features PT tapered port threads.

Quickly fine-tune the 500-550 mm end-stop during product size changes on a packaging line without changing out the cylinder.
Dial in the exact retraction point during commissioning to ensure precise placement of components without adding external stops.
Adjust the travel window on the fly to accommodate varying package lengths on a conveyor sorting system.
Choose this 32 mm bore model when your application requires 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. If you need to step up to the next bore size, the 40 mm version offers 628 N at the same pressure. The SAIJ32X550-50-S is selected when you need fine end-position tuning without external stops, providing a 500-550 mm usable travel window. Because the 550 mm stroke is relatively long for a 12 mm rod, an external guide is recommended to manage side loads and prevent rod deflection.
To match this ISO 15552 interchangeable cylinder, specify a 32 mm bore, 550 mm stroke, 50 mm adjustment, PT port thread, and the -S magnet option. Remember that the rear adjuster is a stop, not a lock; the cylinder will not maintain its position without continuous air supply.
Quick checklist
This 32 mm bore cylinder provides a push force of 402 N and a pull force of 345 N at 0.5 MPa. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 563 N.
The rear adjuster allows you to shorten the 550 mm nominal stroke by up to 50 mm, creating a usable travel window of 500-550 mm. It acts as a travel stop and does not lock the load without live air.
