The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ125 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ125AX175-40S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 175mm 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 SAIJ125X175-40-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster. It provides a usable travel window of 135 to 175 mm, letting you dial back the nominal stroke by up to 40 mm during commissioning. It delivers 6136 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and reaches 11045 N at 0.9 MPa, making it a robust choice for heavy handling.
This SKU is configured with a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod (code A) for corrosion resistance and includes a piston magnet (-S) for electronic DMSE or reed CMSE position sensing. The rear adjuster acts purely as a mechanical stop to set the retraction end position. It does not hold the load without live air pressure; for true drop protection, consider an external rod lock or the AirTAC SAIL series.

Dial in the 135 to 175 mm stroke window on the fly to accommodate different package sizes on a packaging line without changing out the cylinder.
Use the 40 mm rear adjustment screw to precisely set the retract end position during commissioning, avoiding mechanical hard stops.
Leverage the 6136 N push force at 0.5 MPa to move heavy pallets or metal blanks through automated machining cells.
Select this 125 mm bore when 80 mm is insufficient (the 80 mm bore yields 2513 N at 0.5 MPa) and you need variable end stops for product changeovers. The integrated 40 mm adjuster removes the need to swap cylinders or bolt on external stopper blocks when tuning the 135-175 mm travel. As an ISO 15552 profile cylinder, it matches standard mounting dimensions and uses a PT G1/2 tapered port.
When specifying a replacement, verify the bore, stroke, 40 mm adjustment, PT G1/2 port, and the -S magnet. The SAIJ mounting set includes Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, omitting the FB, CA, CB, and CR styles found on some fixed-stroke lines. For any stroke of 300 mm or more, an external guide is recommended to manage side loads, though this 175 mm unit handles standard loads well.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, this 125 mm bore cylinder 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 acts as a mechanical stop that lets you shorten the effective stroke by up to 40 mm, creating a 135 to 175 mm travel window. It sets the end position but does not lock the load without live air.
