The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ100 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ100BX425-20S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 425mm 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 SAIJ100X425-20-S is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster. It provides a nominal 425 mm stroke that can be dialed back by up to 20 mm, yielding a precise 405-425 mm usable travel window. Operating at 0.5 MPa, it generates 3927 N of push force and 3681 N of pull force. This model includes a SUS304 stainless steel rod for enhanced corrosion resistance and a PT tapered port thread.
Because the 425 mm stroke is substantial, the 25 mm rod diameter and M20x1.5 rod thread provide robust support, though an external guide is still recommended for heavy lateral loads. The extruded aluminum barrel features sensor grooves on both sides for CMSE reed and DMSE electronic switches. Mounting options include Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2. The rear adjuster acts strictly as a travel stop for end-position tuning, not a lock, so live air is required to hold the load.

Dial in the 405-425 mm stroke window during packaging line format changes to accommodate varying carton dimensions without mechanical rebuilds.
Fine-tune the final retract position during machine commissioning to perfect pressing operations, avoiding the need to swap out the entire cylinder.
Set precise travel limits on heavy-duty material handling stations where the 3927 N push force is needed to move substantial workpieces.
Select this 100 mm bore model when your application requires substantial thrust—such as the 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa—and on-the-fly end-position tuning without swapping cylinders or adding external stops. If you need less force, stepping down to an 80 mm bore yields 2513 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. Conversely, moving up to a 125 mm bore provides 6136 N. The adjustable 405-425 mm window is perfect for machine setups requiring variable end stops or product-size changeovers.
As a dimensionally interchangeable ISO 15552 cylinder, this model replaces standard units when matched on bore, stroke, 20 mm adjustment, PT port, and mounting set. It operates at speeds of 30-800 mm/s. For load-holding without continuous air pressure, this cylinder is insufficient; you should consider the SAIL (air-released lock) or BSAI (clamp-lock) variants instead.
Quick checklist
The rear adjusting screw acts as a mechanical stopper that shortens the effective stroke by up to 20 mm. This creates a 405-425 mm usable travel window, allowing you to fine-tune the retract end position at commissioning without replacing the cylinder.
At a standard 0.5 MPa operating pressure, the SAIJ100X425-20-S provides 3927 N of push force and 3681 N of pull force. The maximum thrust is 801 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
