The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ125 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ125AX160-100S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 160mm 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 SAIJ125X160-100-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, allowing you to dial back the nominal 160 mm travel by up to 100 mm. This creates a highly flexible 60-160 mm usable travel window, perfect for dialing in exact end positions during commissioning without swapping hardware. It delivers 6136 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, scaling up to 11045 N at 0.9 MPa.
This unit features a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod (code A) for enhanced corrosion resistance and includes a magnet (-S) for use with AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors. Fluid control is managed via PT tapered G1/2 ports, while the extruded aluminum barrel integrates sensor grooves on both sides. The rear adjuster acts purely as a mechanical stop to set the retract position and does not hold the load without live air.

Quickly reconfigure the 60-160 mm stroke window on packaging lines to accommodate different carton or pallet sizes without changing the cylinder.
Fine-tune the retract position during machine commissioning to achieve exact clamping or pressing depths using the rear adjustment screw.
Leverage the 6136 N push force at 0.5 MPa to move heavy machining fixtures, relying on the robust 32 mm rod to handle substantial loads.
Choose this 125 mm bore when an 80 mm cylinder (providing 2513 N push at 0.5 MPa) lacks the thrust for heavier fixtures, but a 160 mm bore (10053 N at 0.5 MPa) would be excessive overkill. The 100 mm adjustment range is ideal for machines processing multiple product sizes, allowing variable end-stops without adding external stops. For load-holding without continuous air pressure, select a SAIL or BSAI cylinder instead, as the SAIJ adjuster is not a lock.
To match this ISO 15552 interchangeable cylinder exactly, specify: 125 mm bore, 160 mm nominal stroke, 100 mm adjust, PT G1/2 ports, SUS420J2 rod, and the -S magnet. Mounting options are limited to Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2. Since the 160 mm stroke is under 300 mm, side-load stress is minimal, but external guides remain recommended for heavy lateral loads.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, it provides 6136 N of push force and 5734 N of pull force. At 0.9 MPa, the push force increases to 11045 N.
The rear adjuster allows you to shorten the 160 mm nominal stroke by up to 100 mm, creating a usable travel window of 60 to 160 mm. It acts as a mechanical stop and does not lock the load without live air pressure.
