The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ125 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ125AX240-40 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 240mm 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 SAIJ125X240-40 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster. It delivers a substantial 8590N push force at 0.7 MPa, utilizing a 32mm rod and PT tapered port threads. By turning the external rear stopper screw, you can fine-tune the effective travel down from the 240mm nominal stroke, creating a precise 200 to 240mm usable window. This allows exact end-position calibration during commissioning without adding external stops.
This model features a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod (material code A) for enhanced durability against moisture and minor corrosion. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides, ready to accept AirTAC CMSE reed or DMSE electronic solid-state switches if a magnet is specified later. It uses the standard SAIJ mounting set (Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, TCM2), omitting the FB, CA, CB, and CR options.

Quickly adjust the retract end-position by up to 40mm when switching product sizes on a packaging line, avoiding complete cylinder replacement.
Dial in the exact 200 to 240mm travel window during commissioning to ensure the 6136N thrust at 0.5 MPa is applied at the precise mechanical depth required.
Lift and shift heavy workpieces using the 8590N push force at 0.7 MPa, relying on the robust SUS420J2 stainless steel rod for durability.
Selecting this 125mm bore over a 100mm version steps the 0.5 MPa push force up from 3927N to 6136N, providing the necessary thrust for heavier actuators. The 40mm adjustment range is ideal for product changeovers on a line, letting you dial in a new retract distance rapidly. Because the rear adjuster acts purely as a travel stop and the air cushions handle deceleration, neither will hold a load without live air pressure. For true load-holding requirements, consider the SAIL or BSAI series.
When matching this ISO 15552 cylinder for a retrofit, verify the 240mm stroke, 40mm adjustment, PT G1/2 port, and the required mounting bracket. With a 240mm stroke, the 32mm rod diameter handles high side loads well, but any long unsupported travel still necessitates an external guide rail to prevent premature seal wear.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, it provides 6136N of push force and 5734N of pull force. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 8590N.
The rear adjuster screw acts as a mechanical stop, allowing you to shorten the 240mm nominal stroke by up to 40mm. This creates a 200 to 240mm usable travel window for fine-tuning end positions without swapping the cylinder.
