The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ100 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ100BX165-75S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 165mm stroke, G1/2 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 SAIJ100X165-75-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster that provides a usable travel window of 90-165 mm from its 165 mm nominal stroke. Delivering 3927 N of push force and 3681 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, it handles heavy-duty positioning tasks with precision. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides, and this -S variant includes a magnet for position detection.
Equipped with a SUS304 stainless steel rod (option B) for superior corrosion resistance, it utilizes PT tapered port threads (G1/2) for secure pneumatic connections. The rear adjusting screw acts as a mechanical stop to dial in the retract end-position during commissioning without adding external stops. It is important to note that this adjuster is not a locking device; the cylinder cannot hold a load without live air pressure.

Quickly adjust the retract end-stop from 90 to 165 mm during production line changeovers to accommodate different product sizes without disassembling the machinery.
Leverage 3927 N of thrust at 0.5 MPa to securely press heavy components, using the fine adjustment screw to dial in the exact bottoming position during commissioning.
Eliminate mechanical shims during initial machine build by using the 75 mm rear stopper window to perfectly set the retracted home position for heavy-duty actuators.
Selecting this 100 mm bore adjustable-stroke cylinder makes sense when an application requires 3927 N of thrust at 0.5 MPa but needs flexibility in the final end-of-stroke position, a task that would otherwise require physically swapping a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder. If your application demands less force, stepping down to an 80 mm bore yields 2513 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. For load-holding without continuous live air pressure, this standard SAIJ is insufficient; consider the SAIL or BSAI series instead.
When replacing an ISO 15552 cylinder, match the 100 mm bore, 165 mm stroke, 75 mm adjustment range, PT port threads, and the -S magnet requirement. The SAIJ mounting interface supports Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2 accessories, deliberately omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR brackets. Because the 25 mm piston rod and M20x1.5 rod thread provide substantial side-load capacity, this cylinder is well-suited for guided heavy loads, though unsupported strokes approaching 300 mm or more still require external guidance.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 100 mm bore cylinder provides 3927 N of push force and 3681 N of pull force. The recommended operational speed range is 30-800 mm/s.
The rear adjuster screw acts as a mechanical stop that lets you trim the 165 mm nominal stroke back by up to 75 mm, providing an adjustable travel window of 90-165 mm. It only sets the travel end and does not lock or hold the load without live air pressure.
