The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ100 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ100BX50-30S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 50mm 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 SAIJ100X50-30-S is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear-mounted stroke adjuster. It provides a nominal 50 mm stroke that can be fine-tuned down by up to 30 mm, yielding a highly versatile 20-50 mm usable travel window for precise end-position calibration. Delivering 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and 7068 N at 0.9 MPa, it handles heavy actuation tasks with ease. The standard extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides, and this specific configuration features a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance.
This unit includes a magnet for position sensing, operating seamlessly with AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic solid-state switches. The rear adjuster functions strictly as a mechanical stop to dial in the travel limit during commissioning or product changeovers, ensuring you never need to swap the cylinder or bolt on external stops. It is important to note that this adjuster, alongside the variable air cushions at both ends, only decelerates the travel end and does not hold the load without live air pressure.

Dial in the 20-50 mm travel window rapidly during line changeovers to accommodate different package sizes without replacing the actuator.
Leverage the 7068 N push force at 0.9 MPa to securely press components, using the rear stop to guarantee precise final depth.
Use the 30 mm adjustment range to fine-tune the retraction end-point during machine setup, perfecting the pickup distance for delicate parts.
Select this 100 mm bore actuator when your application demands high thrust alongside variable end-stop positioning. If you need less force, stepping down to the 80 mm bore yields 2513 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, but the SAIJ100X50-30-S guarantees 3927 N at that same pressure, scaling up to 7068 N at 0.9 MPa. The 25 mm rod diameter and M20x1.5 thread provide robust resistance to side loads, though any long unsupported stroke still requires an external guide.
This model is equipped with PT tapered ports (G1/2) and utilizes the SAIJ reduced mounting set: Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR. For load-holding requirements without live pressure, this cylinder is not a lock; you should explore the AirTAC SAIL pneumatic lock or BSAI clamp-lock series instead. For a fixed end-position alternative without the adjuster, the standard SAI cylinder shares the exact ISO 15552 mounting interface dimensions.
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. At 0.9 MPa, the push force increases to 7068 N.
The rear adjuster acts as a mechanical stop that allows you to trim the 50 mm nominal stroke back by up to 30 mm, creating a 20-50 mm usable travel window. It only sets the end position and does not lock the load without live air pressure.
