The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ125 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ125AX170-50 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 170mm 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 SAIJ125X170-50 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster. It provides a usable travel window of 120-170 mm, allowing you to dial back the 170 mm nominal stroke by up to 50 mm. In the 125 mm bore class, it generates 6136 N of push force and 5734 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa.
This unit features a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod for enhanced corrosion resistance and uses PT tapered port threads. The rear adjuster acts purely as a mechanical stop to fine-tune end positions at commissioning; it does not hold the load without live air. For load-holding requirements, consider the SAIL or BSAI series.

Dial in the 120-170 mm travel window during line changeovers to accommodate different product sizes without replacing hardware.
Fine-tune the retract end-stop during machine commissioning to perfect pressing or clamping depths on the fly.
Leverage the 6136 N push force at 0.5 MPa for heavy-duty assembly operations while maintaining flexible stroke limits.
Choose this adjustable model over a fixed SAI cylinder when your setup requires variable end-stops or frequent product changeovers, as it eliminates the need to swap physical cylinders or add external stops. If your application requires less force, stepping down to a 100 mm bore yields 3927 N of push force at 0.5 MPa.
Because the 170 mm stroke is below the 300 mm threshold, external side-load guides are less critical here, though the robust 32 mm rod and M27x2 thread handle substantial stresses. The mounting options include Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2. Since no magnet is specified, position sensing via CMSE or DMSE switches is not supported without modification. For true drop-in ISO 15552 interchangeability, match the 125 mm bore, 170 mm stroke, 50 mm adjustment, PT ports, and mounting style.
Quick checklist
At 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 11045 N push force at 0.9 MPa.
The rear mechanical stopper allows you to shorten the 170 mm nominal stroke by up to 50 mm, creating a usable travel window of 120-170 mm. This adjuster sets the travel end and is not a lock, meaning the cylinder requires live air to hold its position.
