The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ125 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ125BX40-40S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 40mm 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 SAIJ125X40-40-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a 125 mm bore and a 40 mm nominal stroke. Equipped with a rear adjusting stopper, it provides a usable travel window of 0 to 40 mm, allowing you to dial back the full stroke by up to 40 mm during commissioning. It delivers a robust 6136 N pull force at 0.5 MPa, making it suitable for heavy-duty positioning tasks.
This variant features a SUS304 stainless steel rod (option B) for superior corrosion resistance and includes a magnet (-S) for use with AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides. It uses a PT tapered G1/2 port and offers adjustable air cushions at both ends to decelerate the load smoothly.

Dial in the exact 0 to 40 mm end-stop during product size transitions without physically replacing the cylinder or adding spacers.
Leverage the 6136 N pull force to move heavy assemblies, using the rear stopper to set the precise retracted position at commissioning.
Rely on the SUS304 stainless steel rod and position-sensing magnet to operate reliably in washdown or corrosive manufacturing environments.
Choose this 125 mm bore cylinder when your application requires substantial thrust—neighboring bore sizes offer 3927 N (100 mm) or 6136 N (125 mm) of pull force at 0.5 MPa. An adjustable stroke is preferred over a fixed SAI cylinder when you need to fine-tune the end position on a machine changeover without swapping the hardware or adding external stops. 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 the SAIL or BSAI series.
For an exact ISO 15552 replacement, match the 125 mm bore, 40 mm stroke, 40 mm adjustment code, PT G1/2 port, and the -S magnet requirement. The SAIJ mounting set includes Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, omitting the FB, CA, CB, and CR options found on other variants.
Quick checklist
The rear adjusting screw acts as an external stopper, allowing you to shorten the effective stroke by up to 40 mm. This creates a 0 to 40 mm usable travel window for fine-tuning the end position without changing the cylinder itself.
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, it provides 6136 N of pull force and 8590 N of push force. The maximum operating pressure is 1.0 MPa.
