The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ125 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ125BX35-20S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 35mm 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 SAIJ125X35-20-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, delivering robust thrust for heavy-duty automation. It features a 125 mm bore, generating 6136 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa and a maximum of 1251 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The integrated -20 adjustment mechanism allows the 35 mm nominal stroke to be fine-tuned down to a 15 mm effective travel, providing a precise 15-35 mm usable window for exact end-position calibration during commissioning.
This model incorporates a SUS304 stainless steel piston rod (option B) for superior corrosion resistance in harsh environments. An integrated magnet (-S) enables position sensing with AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic solid-state switches, which mount directly into the extruded aluminum barrel's dual sensor grooves. Unlike fixed-stroke SAI cylinders, this adjustable variant eliminates the need to swap hardware or add external stops when dialing in a specific end-of-stroke position.

Leverage the 1251 kgf maximum thrust and SUS304 rod for heavy-duty positioning tasks requiring precise stroke limits in harsh environments.
Selecting this 125 mm bore cylinder is ideal when an application demands high force (6136 N pull at 0.5 MPa) and exact end-position tuning. If your force requirements are lower, stepping down to a 100 mm bore yields 3681 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, while moving up to a 160 mm bore provides 9425 N. Choose the SAIJ adjustable-stroke design over a fixed SAI when you need a variable end-stop for product changeovers or setup fine-tuning. Remember that the rear adjuster acts purely as a travel stop and does not hold the load without live air; for true load-holding without pressure, consider an SAIL or BSAI cylinder.
For ISO 15552 replacement matching, verify this cylinder's 125 mm bore, 35 mm stroke, -20 adjustment range, PT tapered port threads, and the -S magnet option. The SAIJ series utilizes a reduced mounting subset of Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR mounts. Although the 32 mm diameter rod and M27x2 thread handle high axial loads well, always support any long-stroke application with an external guide to prevent side-load damage.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, this 125 mm bore cylinder provides 6136 N of push force and 1402 N of pull force (accounting for the rod). At the maximum operating pressure of 1.0 MPa, it delivers up to 1251 kgf.
The rear adjuster screw allows you to shorten the 35 mm nominal stroke by up to 20 mm, creating a 15-35 mm usable travel window. This stopper fine-tunes the end position but does not lock or hold the load without continuous air pressure.
