The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ125 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ125AX290-20S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 290mm 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 SAIJ125X290-20-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, enabling a usable travel window of 270-290 mm from its 290 mm nominal stroke. Delivering 5734 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, it handles heavy positioning tasks with precision. The extruded aluminum barrel features dual sensor grooves, and the -S magnet seamlessly integrates with CMSE reed and DMSE electronic solid-state switches for exact position feedback.
This variant features a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod (code A) for superior corrosion resistance and utilizes PT tapered port threads. The rear adjustment screw acts purely as a mechanical stop to dial in the retract end-position during commissioning; it does not hold the load without live air pressure. Mounting options are restricted to Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, deliberately omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR brackets.

Dial in the exact retract position within a 270-290 mm window during machine commissioning to accommodate slight variations in tooling or fixture lengths.
Quickly adjust the stroke end-position on packaging or assembly lines when switching between different product sizes, avoiding the need to bolt on external stops.
Leverage the 6136 N push force at 0.5 MPa to move heavy pallets or lifts, using the rear screw to set the precise lower stopping point.
Choose this 125 mm bore cylinder when an 80 mm bore (2268 N pull) lacks the force to move your load, but you need the flexibility to fine-tune the end-stop on the fly without physically swapping components. The adjustable rear stopper is ideal for product changeovers, letting you trim up to 20 mm of travel directly on the machine. If your application requires the load to be held mechanically without continuous air pressure, the standard SAIJ adjuster will not suffice; you should instead select an SAIL (air-released lock) or BSAI (clamp-lock) cylinder. For a direct ISO 15552 replacement, match the 125 mm bore, 290 mm stroke, 20 mm adjustment, PT G1/2 port, mounting style, and -S magnet requirement.
Quick checklist
The rear adjuster screw allows you to shorten the effective stroke by up to 20 mm, providing a usable travel window of 270-290 mm. It functions as a mechanical stop for end-position tuning and is not a lock; it cannot hold a load without live air pressure.
At 0.5 MPa, it provides 6136 N of push force and 5734 N of pull force. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 8590 N. The maximum operating pressure is 1.0 MPa.
