The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ125 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ125AX250-30 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 250mm 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 SAIJ125X250-30 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster that creates a 220-250 mm usable travel window. Delivering 6136 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, it handles heavy actuation while allowing precise end-position tuning during commissioning. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides for flexible switch placement.
This model uses a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod for improved corrosion resistance and features PT tapered port threads. The rear adjustment screw acts purely as a mechanical stop to fine-tune the retract position without requiring external stops, while the standard air cushions manage end-of-stroke deceleration.

Fine-tune the exact retract end-position during commissioning to achieve precise mechanical alignment.
Adjust the mechanical stop point on the fly for heavy-duty forming or clamping stations requiring 6136 N of force.
Choose this 125 mm bore when a 100 mm cylinder (providing 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa) lacks thrust, but a 160 mm bore (10053 N) is excessive. The 30 mm adjustment window is ideal for applications requiring variable end-stops or product-size changeovers, avoiding the need to physically swap cylinders compared to a fixed-stroke SAI. Remember that the adjuster is a travel stop, not a lock; for load-holding without live air pressure, consider an AirTAC SAIL or BSAI cylinder.
To match this ISO 15552 footprint for a direct replacement, confirm the 125 mm bore, 250 mm stroke, PT port threads, SUS420J2 rod material, and the required mounting style from the available SAIJ set: Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, or TCM2. Because the stroke is under 300 mm, side-load risks are moderate, but external guides are still recommended for heavy off-center loads.
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 deliver up to 8590 N push at 0.7 MPa.
The rear adjuster screw allows you to shorten the effective stroke by up to 30 mm, creating a 220-250 mm travel window. It functions as a mechanical stop for position tuning and does not lock the load without live air.
