The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ125 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ125AX55-30S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 55mm 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 SAIJ125X55-30-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a 125mm bore and a 55mm nominal stroke. A rear adjusting screw allows you to trim the retract travel by up to 30mm, creating a precise 25-55mm usable stroke window for exact end-position tuning during commissioning. It delivers 6136N of push force at 0.5MPa and includes a -S magnet for use with CMSE reed and DMSE solid-state sensors.
This unit uses a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod (material code A) and PT tapered port threads. The extruded aluminum barrel incorporates sensor grooves on both sides. Mounting options cover the SAIJ subset (Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, TCM2), omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR. The rear adjuster acts purely as a mechanical stop for deceleration, not a lock, so live air is required to hold the load.

Dial in the 25-55mm stroke window on the fly to accommodate different product lengths without changing the cylinder.
Use the rear stopper to fine-tune the retract distance during machine setup, ensuring exact alignment for high-force operations.
Leverage the 6136N push force at 0.5MPa for pressing or lifting tasks while relying on the adjustable stop for precise travel limits.
Choose this 125mm bore if your application requires higher force than the 100mm option (3927N push at 0.5MPa) but less than the 200mm class. An adjustable stroke is selected over a fixed SAI cylinder when you need variable end-stops for product changeovers without swapping hardware. For load-holding without live air pressure, consider a SAIL or BSAI cylinder instead. To match this ISO 15552 interchangeable replacement, specify 125mm bore, 55mm stroke, 30mm adjustment, PT G1/2 port, and the -S magnet.
Quick checklist
The rear adjuster screw lets you shorten the 55mm nominal stroke by up to 30mm, providing a usable travel window of 25-55mm for fine-tuning the retract end position without external stops.
At 0.5MPa operating pressure, it provides 6136N of push force and 5734N of pull force. It can reach up to 11045N push force at 0.9MPa.
