The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ125 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ125AX50-40 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 50mm 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 SAIJ125X50-40 is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear-mounted stroke adjuster. It delivers 6136N of push force and 5734N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, placing it firmly in the heavy-duty thrust class. A built-in variable air cushion at both ends decelerates the load before the mechanical stop.
The -40 adjustment code allows you to dial back the nominal 50mm stroke by up to 40mm, creating a precise 10-50mm usable travel window. This fine-tuning at commissioning is achieved without swapping the cylinder or bolting on external stops. It features a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod for enhanced corrosion resistance and uses PT tapered ports.

Fine-tune the 10-50mm travel window during product size changeovers without replacing the cylinder or adding external mechanical stops.
Leverage 6136N of thrust at 0.5MPa to push heavy fixtures, using the rear adjuster to precisely set the retracted position for different assembly jigs.
Dial in the exact end-of-stroke position during initial machine commissioning to compensate for mechanical tolerance stack-ups across the fixture.
Choose this 125mm bore when a 100mm bore (offering 3927N push at 0.5MPa) is insufficient, but a 160mm bore (10053N) is physically oversized. The adjustable stroke is ideal for product-size changeovers on a line, letting operators set variable end stops on the fly. Remember that the rear adjuster acts purely as a travel stop and does not hold the load without live air; for true fail-safe load holding, consider an AirTAC SAIL or BSAI cylinder. To match this ISO 15552 replacement exactly, specify the 125mm bore, 50mm stroke, 40mm adjustment, PT port, and no magnet.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 125mm bore cylinder provides 6136N of push force and 5734N of pull force. At the maximum pressure of 1.0 MPa, it delivers up to 1251 kgf.
The rear adjuster screw acts as a mechanical stop that lets you trim the effective travel back from the 50mm nominal stroke by up to 40mm, yielding a usable 10-50mm window. It only sets the end position and does not lock or hold the load without continuous air pressure.
