The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ125 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ125BX165-50 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 165mm 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 SAIJ125X165-50 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, enabling you to dial back the nominal 165 mm travel by up to 50 mm for a usable window of 115-165 mm. Delivering 6136 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, it handles heavy positioning tasks while maintaining a standard ISO 15552 mounting footprint. The extruded aluminum barrel features sensor grooves on both sides, and the piston rod is built from SUS304 stainless steel for superior corrosion resistance.
This model uses PT tapered port threads and operates at speeds between 30-500 mm/s. The rear adjuster acts purely as a mechanical stop to fine-tune the retract end position during commissioning or product changeover without adding external stops. It is important to note that this adjuster is not a locking device; the cylinder cannot hold a load without live air pressure, so applications requiring true load-holding should utilize a SAIL or BSAI variant.

Dial in the exact 115-165 mm retract position for machining operations that require frequent adjustments to accommodate different part lengths.
Rapidly reconfigure conveyor sorting arms by up to 50 mm during product size transitions without swapping out the entire cylinder assembly.
Utilize the 6136 N pull force at 0.5 MPa to press components securely, using the rear stop to fine-tune the final pressing depth.
Choose this 125 mm bore when the 80 mm bore's 2268 N pull at 0.5 MPa is insufficient, but a 160 mm bore would be excessive. The 50 mm adjustment range is ideal for machinery requiring variable end-stops during product size changeovers, offering flexibility that a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder cannot. For an exact ISO 15552 replacement match, specify a 125 mm bore, 165 mm stroke, 50 mm adjustment, PT ports, and Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, or TCM2 mounting. Since the stroke is under 300 mm, standard side-load guidance is less critical, but external guides are still recommended for heavy lateral loads.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 125 mm bore cylinder provides 6136 N of pull force and 8590 N of push force. It can deliver up to 11045 N of push force at 0.7 MPa.
The rear adjuster screw allows you to mechanically shorten the 165 mm nominal stroke by up to 50 mm, providing a usable travel window of 115-165 mm. This stopper sets the end position but does not lock or hold the load without continuous air pressure.
