The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ100 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ100BX90-20 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 90mm 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 SAIJ100X90-20 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster that allows you to trim the nominal 90 mm stroke back by up to 20 mm, creating a precise 70-90 mm usable travel window for commissioning. It delivers a robust 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, making it well-suited for heavy-duty positioning tasks. This extruded aluminum barrel design includes integrated sensor grooves on both sides and omits tie-rod construction.
This specific SKU is configured with a SUS304 stainless steel rod (code B) for superior corrosion resistance and features PT tapered port threads with a G1/2 connection. The 25 mm rod diameter and M20x1.5 rod thread provide excellent rigidity, handling higher side loads than smaller bores while maintaining an operating speed of 30-800 mm/s. The rear adjuster acts purely as a mechanical stop for end-position tuning and does not hold the load without live air pressure.

Dial in the 70-90 mm travel window during product size transitions to set new physical end-stops without replacing the entire actuator.
Fine-tune the retraction point at commissioning to perfect the resting state of heavy conveyors or presses handling 3927 N loads.
Leverage the 100 mm bore force and SUS304 rod durability to reliably push heavy components into precise final fixtures.
Choose this 100 mm bore when the 80 mm class (2513 N push at 0.5 MPa) is insufficient, or step down if the 63 mm class (1559 N) provides enough force. An adjustable stroke is ideal when you need variable end-stops for machine setup or product changeovers without swapping the entire cylinder or bolting on external stops. For exact ISO 15552 dimensional interchangeability, match the 100 mm bore, 90 mm stroke, 20 mm adjustment, PT G1/2 port, and mounting choice.
Mounting options for the SAIJ series include Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, deliberately omitting the FB, CA, CB, and CR configurations. Because the stroke is under 300 mm, side-load concerns are minimal, but always guide rigid loads externally. If your application requires true load-holding without live air pressure, this cylinder's adjuster will not act as a brake; consider the SAIL (air-released lock) or BSAI (clamp-lock) variants instead.
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 screw allows you to mechanically shorten the 90 mm nominal stroke by up to 20 mm, providing a usable travel window of 70 to 90 mm. It functions as a physical stop for end-position tuning and does not lock or hold the load without continuous air pressure.
