The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ125 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ125AX230-30 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 230mm 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 SAIJ125X230-30 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster. It provides a nominal 230 mm stroke that can be dialed back by up to 30 mm, giving you a usable travel window of 200 to 230 mm. This allows for fine end-position tuning at commissioning without swapping the cylinder or bolting on external stops.
Belonging to the 125 mm bore class, it delivers 6136 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa and up to 11045 N at 0.9 MPa. The piston rod is crafted from SUS420J2 stainless steel (code A) for improved corrosion resistance, and the body uses an extruded aluminum profile with sensor grooves on both sides. The rear adjuster acts purely as a mechanical stop to set the travel end; it does not hold the load without live air.

Dial in the 200-230 mm stroke window during product size changes on a packaging line without replacing the cylinder.
Fine-tune the retract end-position during commissioning to perfect the seating of heavy components.
Utilize the 11045 N push force at 0.9 MPa to secure large workpieces while adjusting the clamping depth by up to 30 mm.
Choose this 125 mm bore when your application requires high thrust (6136 N pull at 0.5 MPa) and a variable end-stop. If you need less force, stepping down to an 80 mm bore yields 2268 N pull at 0.5 MPa, whereas a 160 mm bore provides 9425 N pull for heavier loads. The SAIJ is selected over a fixed-stroke SAI when machine setup or product changeover requires adjustable travel limits.
Because the 230 mm stroke is below the 1500 mm maximum, it is standard length, but any stroke of 300 mm or more requires an external guide to prevent side-load damage. For load-holding without live pressure, this cylinder is insufficient; you must use a SAIL (pneumatic lock) or BSAI (clamp-lock) cylinder, or install an external rod lock. This model uses PT tapered ports and supports Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2 mounts.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 125 mm bore cylinder provides 6136 N of pull force and 8590 N of push force. At 0.9 MPa, the push force increases to 11045 N.
A rear mechanical screw acts as a stopper, allowing you to shorten the effective travel from the 230 mm nominal stroke down to 200 mm. This adjuster only sets the travel end and does not lock or hold the load without continuous air pressure.
