The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ125 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ125AX280-10S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 280mm 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 SAIJ125X280-10-S is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster. It delivers 6136N of push force at 0.5MPa and features a 10mm adjustment range, creating a precise 270-280mm usable travel window for fine-tuning end positions without external stops.
This variant includes a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod (code A) for improved corrosion resistance and a built-in magnet (-S) for use with CMSE reed or DMSE electronic sensors. The extruded aluminum barrel incorporates sensor grooves on both sides, and the rear stopper simply sets the travel limit without locking the load.

Dial in the 270-280mm travel window during packaging line format changes to accommodate slightly different carton depths without changing the cylinder.
Fine-tune the retract stroke end during machine commissioning to perfectly seat heavy components, utilizing the 10mm rear stopper for exact positioning.
Leverage the 6136N push force at 0.5MPa to seat large bearings, using the adjustable stop to prevent over-travel on delicate parts.
Choose this 125mm bore when a 100mm cylinder (providing 3927N push at 0.5MPa) lacks the necessary thrust, but a 160mm bore (10053N) would be excessive. The 10mm adjustable window is ideal for applications requiring slight end-position tuning during commissioning or product-size changeovers, avoiding the need to physically swap out a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder.
Because the nominal stroke is 280mm, ensure adequate external guidance to prevent excessive side loading on the rod. To match this exact configuration for an ISO 15552 replacement, specify the 125mm bore, 280mm stroke, PT tapered port thread, SUS420J2 rod, and the -S magnet. If true load-holding without live air pressure is required, select an SAIL or BSAI cylinder instead, as this adjuster acts only as a stop.
Quick checklist
At 0.5MPa operating pressure, this 125mm bore cylinder provides 6136N of push force and 5734N of pull force. At 0.7MPa, the push force increases to 8590N.
The rear adjuster acts as a mechanical stop that shortens the effective stroke. For this SAIJ125X280-10-S model, you can trim the nominal 280mm stroke back by up to 10mm, providing a usable travel window of 270-280mm. It does not lock the load without live air pressure.
