The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ125 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ125BX210-40 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 210mm 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 SAIJ125X210-40 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster that allows you to trim the effective travel by up to 40 mm. This creates a precise 170-210 mm usable window, enabling fine end-position tuning at commissioning without swapping out the physical cylinder. It delivers a robust 6136 N push force at 0.5 MPa, making it suited for heavy-duty positioning tasks.
This specific configuration incorporates a SUS304 stainless steel rod (material code B) for superior corrosion resistance and utilizes PT tapered port threads. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides for flexible switch mounting. While the rear adjuster sets the travel limit and the integrated air cushions handle deceleration, neither component will hold a load without continuous live air pressure.

Dial in the 170-210 mm travel window during format changes on a packaging line, using the rear screw to set exact end positions for different carton sizes without changing cylinders.
Leverage the 6136 N push force at 0.5 MPa to move heavy pallets or chassis components into exact alignment before a secondary machining operation.
Trim up to 40 mm off the nominal stroke during initial machine setup to perfectly time the kinematics, preventing over-travel without installing external shock absorbers.
Choose this 125 mm bore when an 80 mm bore (providing 2513 N push at 0.5 MPa) lacks the thrust for your heavier fixtures, but a 160 mm bore (10053 N) would be excessive. The adjustable 170-210 mm travel window is ideal for production lines running mixed product sizes, allowing operators to dial in the exact end-stop during changeovers instead of adding external mechanical stops. To match this cylinder exactly when replacing an ISO 15552 unit, specify the 125 mm bore, 210 mm stroke, 40 mm adjustment range, PT ports, and SUS304 rod.
Because the nominal stroke is 210 mm, ensure your mounting arrangement adequately supports the load to prevent excessive side-loading on the rod. If your application requires the load to be held mechanically in place during a loss of air pressure, a standard SAIJ is insufficient; you should explore an AirTAC SAIL (pneumatic lock) or BSAI (clamp-lock) cylinder instead. SAIJ supports a reduced mounting set of Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR options.
Quick checklist
At a 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 125 mm bore cylinder generates 6136 N of push force and 5734 N of pull force. At the maximum 1.0 MPa pressure, it can deliver up to 1251 kgf.
The rear adjuster acts as a mechanical stop that allows you to shorten the 210 mm nominal stroke by up to 40 mm, providing an effective travel range of 170 to 210 mm. It only sets the end position and does not lock the load without live air pressure.
