About the Airtac SAIJ100 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ100BX180-50
The AirTAC SAIJ100X180-50 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster that creates a 130-180 mm usable travel window from its 180 mm nominal stroke. Equipped with a SUS304 stainless steel rod, it delivers 7068 N of push force at 0.9 MPa, making it suitable for heavy-duty positioning. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides.
This model uses a PT tapered G1/2 port and omits the magnet option. The rear stopper allows you to fine-tune the retract end position at commissioning without adding external stops. Remember the adjuster only sets the travel end; it does not hold the load without live air pressure.

Where the Airtac SAIJ100 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ100BX180-50 Is Used
Product Size Changeover
Dial in the exact 130 to 180 mm end-stop during format changeovers without physically replacing the cylinder or adding mechanical shims.
Heavy Forming Press
Leverage the 7068 N push force at 0.9 MPa for high-load stamping or holding, using the rear screw to tune the bottoming position precisely.
Commissioning Calibration
Fine-tune the retract position during initial machine setup to compensate for mechanical tolerances across the tooling layout.
Is the Airtac SAIJ100 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ100BX180-50 the Right Cylinder?
Choose this 100 mm bore when the 80 mm class (4523 N push at 0.9 MPa) is insufficient for your load. The 50 mm adjustment range is ideal for production lines running multiple product sizes, letting you dial in the exact end-stop on the fly instead of swapping to a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder. For load-holding without continuous air, use an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve, or switch to the SAIL or BSAI series.
To match this ISO 15552 cylinder for a direct replacement, verify the 180 mm stroke, 50 mm adjuster code, PT G1/2 port, and SUS304 (B) rod material. Mounting options are limited to Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2. Since the stroke is under 300 mm, side-load stress is moderate, but always guide the load externally for optimal bearing life.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/NPT/G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Side load — consider a guided cylinder
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Adjust end cushion screws for smooth stops.
- check Use correct mounting accessory (FA/FB/CA/CB/LB/TC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac SAIJ100 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ100BX180-50 FAQ
At an operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, this 100 mm bore cylinder provides a push force of 7068 N and a pull force of 3681 N. The maximum push force is 801 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The rear adjuster acts as a mechanical stop that lets you shorten the effective stroke by up to 50 mm. This creates a usable travel window of 130 to 180 mm from the factory 180 mm stroke, though it only stops travel and does not lock the load without air pressure.
