The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ100 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ100BX50-40 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 SAIJ100X50-40 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, allowing you to dial back the nominal 50 mm travel by up to 40 mm. This creates a highly versatile 10-50 mm usable travel window, perfect for dialing in exact end positions during machine commissioning without swapping hardware. It delivers a robust 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa, making it well suited for heavy end-of-stroke pressing or holding tasks.
This specific configuration features a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance and includes PT tapered port threads. The extruded aluminum barrel retains standard sensor grooves on both sides, though this unit is supplied without a magnet. The rear adjuster acts purely as a mechanical stop to set the retract position and does not lock the load without live air pressure.

Dial in the exact 10 to 50 mm retract distance during machine setup to accommodate varying part sizes without adding external stopper blocks.
Leverage the 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa to seat heavy components securely, using the adjustable end-stop to prevent over-travel.
Quickly readjust the cylinder stroke on the production line when switching between product variants, minimizing downtime and tooling swaps.
Choose this 100 mm bore when you need substantial thrust, such as the 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa, but require the flexibility to fine-tune the travel down to 10 mm for product changeovers. If your application demands less force, stepping down to an 80 mm bore yields 2513 N at 0.5 MPa. Because the nominal stroke is only 50 mm, side-load risks are minimal, but an external guide is always recommended for heavy loads. Remember that the rear adjuster is a travel stop, not a lock; for true load-holding without live air, select an AirTAC SAIL or BSAI cylinder.
To match this exact configuration for an ISO 15552 replacement, specify the 100 mm bore, 50 mm stroke, 40 mm adjustment range, PT port threads, SUS304 rod material, and no magnet. The SAIJ series supports a reduced mounting set including Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, deliberately omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR brackets.
Quick checklist
The rear adjuster screw lets you shorten the 50 mm nominal stroke by up to 40 mm, providing a usable travel window of 10 to 50 mm. It acts as a mechanical stop to fine-tune the retract end position at commissioning.
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, it provides 3927 N of push force and 3681 N of pull force. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 5497 N.
