The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ100 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ100X50-20 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 SAIJ100X50-20 is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster. It provides a nominal 50mm stroke that can be dialed back by up to 20mm, giving you a precise 30-50mm usable travel window for fine end-position tuning during commissioning. Built with an extruded aluminum barrel and a carbon steel rod, it delivers robust thrust in a standardized footprint.
This 100mm bore model generates 3927N of push force and 3681N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, making it suitable for heavy-duty positioning tasks. The rear adjusting screw acts purely as a travel stop to set deceleration and end limits; it is not a locking device and will not hold a load without live air pressure. For load-holding without compressed air, consider an external rod lock or the AirTAC SAIL and BSAI series.

Dial in the exact 30-50mm end-stop during product size changes on a packaging line without swapping out the entire cylinder assembly.
Fine-tune the rear adjuster to perfect the insertion depth of heavy bearings or pins, compensating for mechanical wear over time.
Set precise deceleration limits for heavy-duty actuators, using the rear screw to trim the final 20mm of travel for smooth positioning.
Select this 100mm bore cylinder when your application requires substantial force within a short travel distance, stepping up from a 80mm bore that provides 2513N push force at 0.5 MPa. The adjustable 30-50mm travel window is ideal for product changeovers on a line where you need a variable end-stop without physically swapping cylinders or adding external stops. If your process requires fixed travel without rear adjustment, the standard AirTAC SAI series is the simpler alternative.
When ordering, verify your configuration matches these exact attributes: a 100mm bore, 50mm stroke with a 20mm adjustment range, PT tapered port threads, carbon steel rod material, and no sensor magnet. This model uses the reduced SAIJ mounting set (Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, TCM2) and omits FB, CA, CB, and CR mounts. Because the 50mm stroke is short, side-load risks are minimal, but ensure your mounting choice provides adequate structural support for the 801kgf maximum load capacity at 1.0 MPa.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 100mm bore cylinder provides 3927N of push force and 3681N of pull force. At the maximum 1.0 MPa pressure, it can deliver up to 801kgf.
The rear adjusting screw acts as an external stopper that lets you shorten the effective travel from the 50mm nominal stroke down to 30mm. This allows you to fine-tune the end position at commissioning without changing the cylinder itself.
