The AirTAC SAIJ100 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ100AX550-100S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 550mm stroke, G1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. Its standardized mounting interface makes it interchangeable with other ISO 15552 cylinders at the mounting interface.
The AirTAC SAIJ100X550-100-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster. It provides a usable travel window of 450 to 550 mm, allowing you to dial back the nominal 550 mm stroke by up to 100 mm during commissioning without adding external stops.
This unit includes a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod for corrosion resistance and an integrated magnet for CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides. The rear screw acts as a travel stop to fine-tune the end position, but 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.

Set precise retract positions for machining operations that require different material off-sets without changing the physical cylinder mounting.
Quickly trim the 550 mm stroke back by up to 100 mm during product line changeovers to accommodate varying package or part sizes.
If your application requires less force, stepping down to the 80 mm bore yields 4523 N at 0.9 MPa. For higher force, the 125 mm bore provides 11045 N. The PT tapered G1/2 port matches the 100 mm bore standard.
Because the 550 mm stroke is substantial, long unsupported travel demands an external guide to prevent side-load damage. The rear adjuster is a stop, not a lock; if you need true load-holding without live air, select a SAIL or BSAI cylinder. This SAIJ model uses the reduced mounting set: Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR.
Quick checklist
The pull force is 3681 N at 0.5 MPa due to the rod.
The rear adjuster screw lets you shorten the effective travel from 550 mm down to 450 mm. This creates a 100 mm tuning window for end-position setup without swapping cylinders, but it acts as a stop and does not lock the load.
