The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ125 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ125AX140-30 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 140mm 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 SAIJ125X140-30 is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear-mounted stroke adjuster. It provides a 110-140 mm usable travel window, allowing you to dial back the 140 mm nominal stroke by up to 30 mm during commissioning. Operating at 0.5 MPa, it delivers 6136 N of push force and 5734 N of pull force, making it well-suited for heavy-duty positioning tasks.
This model is configured with a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod (material code A) for enhanced corrosion resistance compared to standard carbon steel. The adjuster acts purely as a mechanical stop to set the retract end position and does not hold the load without live air pressure. It supports a speed range of 30-500 mm/s and uses PT tapered port threads (G1/2) for pneumatic connections.

Fine-tune the 110-140 mm travel window during product size changes without physically swapping cylinders or adding external mechanical stops.
Dial in the exact retract position on heavy machinery, using the 30 mm rear adjuster to compensate for mechanical tolerance variations.
Leverage the 6136 N push force at 0.5 MPa to move and position heavy jigs or workpieces within automated manufacturing cells.
Choose this 125 mm bore when a 100 mm bore (offering 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa) lacks the necessary thrust, but you want to avoid stepping up to a 160 mm cylinder. The adjustable stroke is ideal for applications requiring variable end-stops or product changeovers, providing fine-tuning without swapping out a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder. Since the stroke is under 300 mm, side-load stress is moderate, but an external guide is still recommended for heavy radial loads.
When replacing an ISO 15552 cylinder, match the 125 mm bore, 140 mm stroke, 30 mm adjustment range, G1/2 PT port, and mounting style. The SAIJ series supports Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2 mounts, omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR. Note that this unit lacks a magnet (-S not specified), so it cannot use AirTAC CMSE reed or DMSE electronic sensors without modification. For load-holding without live air, consider an SAIL or BSAI cylinder instead.
Quick checklist
At an operating pressure of 0.5 MPa, this 125 mm bore cylinder generates 6136 N of push force and 5734 N of pull force. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 8590 N.
The rear adjuster screw allows you to mechanically shorten the 140 mm nominal stroke by up to 30 mm, providing a usable travel window of 110-140 mm. The adjuster functions as a travel stop and does not lock or hold the load without continuous air pressure.
