The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ125 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ125AX85-40S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 85mm 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 SAIJ125X85-40-S is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster. It delivers 6136N of push force at 0.5MPa, stepping up to 11045N at 0.9MPa. The integrated -S magnet enables position detection with AirTAC CMSE reed or DMSE electronic solid-state switches mounted into the dual-side sensor grooves. This unit features a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod and PT tapered ports.
With a nominal 85mm stroke and a 40mm adjustment code, the usable travel window spans 45-85mm. You can fine-tune the retract end-position at commissioning or during product changeovers without swapping the cylinder or adding external stops. The rear adjuster functions strictly as a travel stop and works alongside the 40mm air cushions to decelerate the load; it does not hold the load without live air pressure.

Dial in the 45-85mm travel window during packaging line format changes to accommodate varying carton sizes without mechanical rebuilds.
Fine-tune the retract position during machine commissioning to perfectly seat heavy 6136N assemblies without adding external hard stops.
Adjust the stroke on the fly for pressing or forming applications that require precise, repeatable depth control across different material batches.
Select this 125mm bore when an 80mm cylinder (providing 2513N push at 0.5MPa) lacks the necessary thrust, but you want to avoid the size and air consumption of a 160mm bore. The adjustable 45-85mm travel window is ideal for machines requiring variable end-stops. Because the stroke is under 300mm, side-load risks are moderate, though the 32mm rod and M27x2 thread provide robust resistance. For load-holding without live air pressure, select a SAIL or BSAI cylinder instead, as the SAIJ adjuster is not a lock.
This cylinder is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552. To match this exact configuration, specify the 125mm bore, 85mm stroke, 40mm adjustment, PT tapered ports, SUS420J2 rod, and the -S magnet. It uses a reduced mounting set of Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR.
Quick checklist
The rear adjuster acts as a mechanical stop that trims the retract stroke. For the SAIJ125X85-40-S, you can reduce the 85mm nominal stroke by up to 40mm, creating a usable travel window of 45-85mm to fine-tune the end position.
At 0.5MPa it provides 6136N of push force and 5734N of pull force. At 0.9MPa, the push force increases to 11045N.
