About the Airtac SAIJ100 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ100BX550-50S
The AirTAC SAIJ100X550-50-S is a double-acting, double-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster. It provides a nominal 550 mm stroke that can be fine-tuned backward by up to 50 mm, creating a precise 500-550 mm usable travel window. The integrated -S magnet enables position sensing with AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic switches.
This model features a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance and uses PT tapered port threads mated to a G1/2 port. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides for flexible switch mounting. The rear adjuster acts purely as a mechanical stop to set the end position and does not hold the load without live air pressure.

Theoretical Output Force (Ø100mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 3682 N | 3682 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 5154 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 751 kgf | |
Double-rod model: the rod passes through the rear cover, so both piston faces lose rod area and push is shown at the annular-area value. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a safety margin.

Where the Airtac SAIJ100 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ100BX550-50S Is Used
Product Size Changeover
Dial in the 500-550 mm travel window during format changes on packaging lines, using the rear screw to set new end positions without adding external stops.
Commissioning Fine-Tuning
Trim the effective stroke by up to 50 mm during initial machine setup to perfectly sync end-of-stroke positions with adjacent equipment.
Is the Airtac SAIJ100 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ100BX550-50S the Right Cylinder?
The 50 mm adjustment range is ideal for machine setups requiring variable end-stops or product-size changeovers without swapping the cylinder. For load-holding without continuous air pressure, you must add an external rod lock or look to the SAIL or BSAI series, as the SAIJ adjuster is not a brake.
When replacing an ISO 15552 cylinder, match the 100 mm bore, 550 mm stroke, 50 mm adjustment, PT port threads, and the -S magnet requirement. Because the 550 mm stroke is relatively long, the 25 mm rod diameter should still be paired with an external guide to prevent excessive side-loading on the piston. The SAIJ mounting set includes Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR options.
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 SAIJ100BX550-50S FAQ
At a maximum 1.0 MPa pressure, the push force reaches 7068 N.
The rear adjuster screw acts as a mechanical stop, allowing you to shorten the 550 mm nominal stroke by up to 50 mm, resulting in a 500-550 mm usable travel window. It only sets the end position and does not lock or hold the load without live air pressure.
