The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ125 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ125AX160-30S 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 SAIJ125X160-30-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 30 mm. This creates a precise 130-160 mm usable window, enabling exact end-position tuning at commissioning without swapping out the actuator or adding external stops. It delivers a robust 6136 N push force at 0.5 MPa, making it suitable for heavy-duty positioning tasks.
This SKU is configured with an SUS420J2 stainless steel rod (code A) for enhanced corrosion resistance and includes a magnet (-S) for position sensing. You can mount AirTAC CMSE reed or DMSE electronic solid-state switches directly into the extruded aluminum barrel's dual sensor grooves. The rear adjuster acts purely as a travel stop and does not hold the load without live air pressure.

Dial in the 130-160 mm travel window during format size changes on a packaging line without physically swapping the actuator.
Leverage the 6136 N push force at 0.5 MPa to move heavy pallets or fixtures, using the rear stop to set the exact resting position.
Trim up to 30 mm of stroke during machine setup to perfectly align tooling contacts, avoiding the need for external mechanical stops.
Select this 125 mm bore actuator when you need high thrust combined with variable end-stop positioning, such as accommodating slight product size changes on a line. If your application requires less force, stepping down to a 100 mm bore yields 3927 N push force at 0.5 MPa, whereas moving up to a 160 mm bore provides 10053 N. For fixed-travel applications without the need for commissioning fine-tune adjustments, the standard SAI cylinder is a simpler alternative. To replace an ISO 15552 cylinder, match the 125 mm bore, 160 mm stroke, PT tapered port thread, and your required mounting from the SAIJ subset (Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, TCM2). Because the stroke is 160 mm, ensure adequate external guiding to prevent excessive side-loading on the rod.
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. At the maximum 1.0 MPa pressure, it can deliver up to 1251 kgf.
The rear adjuster screw acts as an external stopper, allowing you to shorten the effective stroke from its nominal 160 mm down to a minimum of 130 mm. It only sets the travel end point and does not lock or hold the load without continuous air pressure.
