The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ125 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ125AX45-40S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 45mm 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 SAIJ125X45-40-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear-mounted stroke adjuster. It provides a nominal 45 mm stroke that can be dialed back by up to 40 mm, yielding a precise 5 to 45 mm usable travel window for exact end-position tuning. Delivering 6136 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, it handles heavy actuation with ease.
This unit is configured with a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod (code A) for enhanced corrosion resistance and includes a magnet for position sensing. It is compatible with AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic switches fitted into the dual-side sensor grooves on the extruded aluminum barrel.

Dial in the 5-45 mm travel window during product size transitions on a packaging line without replacing the cylinder.
Leverage 6136 N of thrust at 0.5 MPa to secure heavy workpieces while fine-tuning the exact clamp contact point.
Set precise retract positions on automated machinery, using the rear screw to trim up to 40 mm off the nominal stroke.
Choose this 125 mm bore when a 100 mm cylinder (offering 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa) lacks the necessary thrust, but a 160 mm bore (10053 N) would be excessive overkill. The 40 mm adjustment range is ideal for machine setups requiring variable end stops during product changeovers, eliminating the need to physically swap cylinders or bolt on external stops. Mounting options are limited to the SAIJ subset: Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2 (omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR). Port threads are PT tapered.
Because the stroke is under 300 mm, side-load stress on the 32 mm rod is manageable without an external guide. Note that the rear adjuster acts strictly as a travel stop to work alongside the variable air cushions; it does not hold the load without live air. For true load-holding without pressure, consider an SAIL pneumatic lock, a BSAI clamp-lock, or an external rod lock.
Quick checklist
At a 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 of push force at 0.7 MPa.
The rear adjuster screw acts as a mechanical stop that can trim the effective travel by up to 40 mm. This turns the nominal 45 mm stroke into a 5 to 45 mm usable window, allowing you to fine-tune the retract end position at commissioning without altering the cylinder mount.
