The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ100 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ100X55-30S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø100mm bore and 55mm 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 SAIJ100X55-30-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, providing a usable travel window of 25 to 55 mm. Delivering 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, it handles substantial loads while allowing precise end-position tuning during commissioning without swapping out the physical cylinder. The extruded aluminum barrel features sensor grooves on both sides.
This variant includes a magnet for position sensing and uses a standard carbon steel rod. The rear screw acts purely as a travel stop for deceleration and end-position setting; it does not lock the load without live air pressure. For load-holding requirements without continuous air, consider an external rod lock or the related SAIL pneumatic lock cylinder.

Leverage the 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa for pressing operations while fine-tuning the bottoming depth on the fly.
Choose this 100 mm bore when a smaller 80 mm cylinder lacks thrust, as the 80 mm yields 2513 N at 0.5 MPa compared to the 3927 N provided here. The adjustable stroke is ideal for machine setups requiring variable end stops or frequent product-size changeovers, whereas a fixed-stroke SAI is better for static, repetitive operations. Because the nominal stroke is under 300 mm, side-load stress on the 25 mm rod is manageable, though external guides remain recommended for heavy lateral loads.
To match this ISO 15552 interchangeable cylinder, specify the 100 mm bore, 55 mm stroke, 30 mm adjustment range, PT tapered port threads, and the -S magnet option for CMSE reed or DMSE electronic sensors. Mounting choices are limited to Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, deliberately omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR brackets.
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 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 5497 N.
The rear adjuster screw allows you to trim the effective stroke back by up to 30 mm from the 55 mm nominal length, creating a usable travel window of 25 to 55 mm. The adjuster functions as a mechanical stop and does not hold the load without live air pressure.
