The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ100 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ100BX900-50S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 900mm 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 SAIJ100X900-50-S is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster. It provides a nominal 900 mm stroke that can be fine-tuned backward by up to 50 mm, yielding an exact usable travel window of 850 to 900 mm. Delivering 3927 N of push force and 3681 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, it handles heavy-duty motion with a 25 mm piston rod and G1/2 ports.
This variant features a SUS304 stainless steel rod (code B) for superior corrosion resistance and includes a built-in magnet (-S) for position sensing with AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic switches. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides. It supports a reduced mounting subset of Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR configurations.

Dial in the 850 to 900 mm travel window during machine commissioning to perfectly strike a press or forming tool without adding external physical stops.
Quickly adapt a long-stroke conveyor diverter or pusher to accommodate different product lengths on the fly by adjusting the rear screw up to 50 mm.
Leverage the 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa to shift heavy pallets or chassis components into a machining center with precise retract positioning.
Choose this 100 mm bore when a 80 mm bore (2513 N push at 0.5 MPa) lacks the thrust to move your load, but you want to avoid the larger 125 mm size. An adjustable stroke is selected over a fixed SAI cylinder when you need to dial in the exact end-of-travel position during commissioning or product changeovers without swapping the hardware or adding external stops. At 900 mm, the unsupported stroke is highly susceptible to side-loading; an external guide rail is mandatory to prevent rod binding.
For drop-in interchangeability, match the ISO 15552 dimensions, 100 mm bore, 900 mm stroke, 50 mm adjustment range, PT tapered port threads, and the -S magnet. Remember that the rear adjuster acts purely as a mechanical stop to set deceleration, not as a locking device. A plain SAIJ cannot hold a load without live air pressure; for true fail-safe load holding, use an SAIL pneumatic lock, a BSAI clamp-lock, or an external rod lock.
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. It can reach up to 7068 N of push force at 0.9 MPa.
The rear adjuster screw lets you shorten the effective travel from the 900 mm nominal stroke down to 850 mm. It acts as a mechanical stop to fine-tune the retract end position and relies on the air cushion for deceleration; it does not lock the load without live air.
