The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ125 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ125AX300-40 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 300mm 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 SAIJ125X300-40 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster that allows you to fine-tune the effective travel down from a 300 mm nominal stroke to a minimum of 260 mm. This creates a precise 260-300 mm usable window, giving you 40 mm of flexibility to dial in the retract end-position without swapping hardware. It delivers a robust 6136 N pull force at 0.5 MPa, making it suitable for heavy-duty positioning.
Equipped with a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod (material code A) for enhanced corrosion resistance, this model uses PT tapered port threads (G1/2) and operates at speeds of 30-500 mm/s. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides, allowing you to easily mount CMSE reed or DMSE electronic switches if position feedback is required later.

Dial in the 260-300 mm retract window during line changeovers to accommodate different product lengths without replacing the cylinder.
Leverage the 6136 N pull force to move heavy pallets or fixtures, using the rear stop to set the exact resting position.
Fine-tune the end-of-stroke position at commissioning to perfect tooling alignment, avoiding the need to machine custom spacers.
Choose this 125 mm bore when a 100 mm cylinder (providing 3681 N pull at 0.5 MPa) lacks the necessary force, but a 160 mm bore is physically oversized for your machine. The adjustable 260-300 mm travel window is perfect for production lines running mixed product sizes, letting operators change the retract end-stop during changeovers instead of adding external stops. Because the 300 mm stroke is substantial, ensure you provide an external guide to handle side loads, as the M27x2 rod thread and cushioning manage axial forces but cannot support unsupported lateral loads.
This cylinder is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552. To match this configuration exactly, specify PT port threads, SUS420J2 rod material, and the 40 mm adjustment range. Remember that the rear adjuster acts only as a travel stop, not a lock; if your application requires the load to be held without live air pressure, you must use an external rod lock or select an AirTAC SAIL or BSAI series cylinder.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 125 mm bore cylinder provides 6136 N of pull force and 6136 N of push force. At the maximum 1.0 MPa pressure, it can deliver up to 1251 kgf.
The rear adjuster screw lets you shorten the 300 mm nominal stroke by up to 40 mm, creating a 260-300 mm travel window. It acts as a mechanical stop to set the end position, but it does not lock the load without continuous air pressure.
