The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ125 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ125AX145-20S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 145mm 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 SAIJ125X145-20-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear-mounted stroke adjuster. It provides a usable travel window of 125 to 145 mm, allowing you to dial back the nominal 145 mm stroke by up to 20 mm during commissioning. This bore size delivers 6136 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, making it well-suited for heavy-duty actuation.
The piston rod utilizes SUS420J2 stainless steel for enhanced corrosion resistance, and the integrated magnet (-S) supports position sensing with AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic switches. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides. The rear adjuster acts purely as a mechanical stop to fine-tune the retract position and does not hold the load without live air pressure.

Dial in the exact retract distance within the 125-145 mm window when switching between product sizes on a packaging line, avoiding physical hardware swaps.
Fine-tune the final resting position during machine commissioning to align heavy 6136 N loads perfectly without adding external stopper blocks.
Leverage the 125 mm bore thrust for pressing components, using the rear stopper to safely limit the travel distance and prevent over-travel.
Choose this 125 mm bore cylinder when an 80 mm bore (providing 2513 N push force at 0.5 MPa) is insufficient for your load, but you want to avoid the mass of a 160 mm body. The adjustable 125-145 mm stroke is ideal for machinery requiring exact end-position tuning or frequent product changeovers without swapping cylinders. Because the nominal stroke is under 300 mm, side-load risks are moderate, but an external guide is still recommended for heavy lateral loads.
This adjustable-stroke design offers distinct advantages over a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder by eliminating the need for external stopper blocks. For load-holding applications without continuous air pressure, consider the SAIL pneumatic lock or BSAI clamp-lock series instead, as the SAIJ adjuster is not a brake. To match this ISO 15552 footprint, verify the 125 mm bore, 145 mm stroke, PT tapered port threads, and the -S magnet requirement.
Quick checklist
At a 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 125 mm bore cylinder provides 6136 N of push force and 5734 N of pull force. It can reach up to 8590 N push force at 0.7 MPa.
The rear adjuster acts as a mechanical stop that lets you shorten the effective travel from 145 mm down to 125 mm. It allows precise end-position tuning at commissioning but does not lock the load without live air pressure.
