The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ125 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ125AX260-50 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 260mm 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 SAIJ125X260-50 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster that creates a 210 to 260 mm usable travel window. It delivers 6136 Newtons of push force at 0.5 MPa, making it a robust choice for heavy-duty actuation. The standard extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides, allowing direct mounting of CMSE reed or DMSE electronic sensors if a magnet is specified later.
This variant features a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod (material code A) and PT tapered port threads. The rear adjustment screw allows you to fine-tune the retract end position during commissioning or product changeovers without adding external stops. Remember that this adjuster acts purely as a travel stop and does not hold the load without live air pressure; for true locking needs, consider the SAIL or BSAI series.

Dial in the exact 210 to 260 mm retract distance for multi-size metal forming operations without physically swapping cylinders between production runs.
Quickly reposition the diverting end-stop on packaging lines to handle different carton lengths, using the rear screw to adapt the stroke on the fly.
Fine-tune the end-of-travel position during initial commissioning to perfectly time heavy-duty assembly presses, avoiding the need for machined spacer blocks.
Select this 125 mm bore cylinder when your application requires substantial force—stepping down to a 100 mm bore reduces thrust to 3927 N at 0.5 MPa, while moving up to a 160 mm bore yields 10053 N. The 50 mm adjustment range is ideal for machinery requiring variable end-stops across different product sizes. Because the 260 mm stroke exceeds 300 mm is false here, but always ensure proper guiding for heavy loads to prevent excessive side-loading on the 32 mm rod.
When replacing an ISO 15552 cylinder, match the 125 mm bore, 260 mm stroke, 50 mm adjustment, PT G1/2 port, and required mounting accessory. SAIJ supports a reduced mounting set including Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2 (omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR). Operating speed for this bore size is 30-500 mm/s.
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 force at 0.7 MPa.
The rear adjuster screw lets you trim the effective travel back by up to 50 mm from the 260 mm nominal stroke, providing a 210 to 260 mm usable window. It functions as a mechanical stop for end-position tuning and does not lock the load without continuous air pressure.
