The AirTAC SAIJ100 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ100AX85-50S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 85mm 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.
It features an extruded aluminum barrel with sensor grooves on both sides and a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod. By turning the rear screw, you can trim the nominal 85mm stroke back by up to 50mm, creating a precise 35-85mm usable travel window without adding external stops.
This model includes a magnet (-S) for position sensing with AirTAC CMSE reed or DMSE electronic switches. The rear adjuster functions purely as a mechanical stop to fine-tune the end position during commissioning; it does not lock or hold the load without continuous air pressure. For load-holding requirements, consider the SAIL or BSAI series instead.

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 35-85mm travel window during format size changes on a packaging line without replacing the cylinder or bolting on external stops.
Fine-tune the retract end position at machine commissioning to achieve precise contact force, utilizing the rear screw stopper rather than relying on air cushions alone.
Provide adjustable physical stops for assembly stations where multiple parts with slightly different heights are processed on the same fixture.
The 50mm adjustment range is particularly useful for product-size changeovers on a line, allowing operators to dial in the exact 35-85mm travel without swapping the cylinder.
To replace an existing ISO 15552 cylinder, match the 100mm bore, 85mm stroke, PT tapered port thread, and the -S magnet requirement. The SAIJ mounting set includes Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2 options, omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR. Because the 85mm stroke is relatively short, side-loading is less of a concern than with longer strokes, but external guides are still recommended if the load is heavy or off-center.
Quick checklist
At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 5497N.
The rear adjusting screw acts as a mechanical stopper that allows you to shorten the effective stroke by up to 50mm. This turns the 85mm nominal stroke into a 35-85mm adjustable travel window, but it does not lock the position without live air pressure.
