The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ125 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ125BX50-40S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 50mm 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 SAIJ125X50-40-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, delivering robust performance with a 6136N push force at 0.5 MPa. It features a SUS304 stainless steel rod (code B) for superior corrosion resistance and includes a magnet for position sensing. The integrated rear stopper allows you to fine-tune the travel end-point at commissioning without physically swapping the cylinder.
With a nominal 50mm stroke and a 40mm adjustment range, this model provides a usable travel window of 10-50mm. This wide adjustment band is ideal for product-size changeovers on a packaging line. The rear screw acts purely as a travel stop and works alongside the variable air cushions at both ends to decelerate the load, but it does not hold the load without live air pressure.

Dial in the exact 10-50mm travel window during machine commissioning to achieve precise mechanical positioning without adding external stops.
Quickly adjust the rear stopper to accommodate varying package sizes on a conveyor line, reducing downtime between production runs.
Leverage the 6136N push force at 0.5MPa for robust clamping tasks, using the adjustable stroke to control the clamp depth precisely.
Select this 125mm bore when a 100mm cylinder (providing 3927N push at 0.5MPa) lacks the necessary thrust, but a 160mm bore (10053N) is physically oversized for your machine. Choose the adjustable SAIJ over a fixed SAI when your application requires variable end-stops or frequent machine setup changes. To replace an ISO 15552 cylinder, match the 125mm bore, 50mm stroke, 40mm adjustment, PT tapered port, and the -S magnet requirement.
For load-holding without continuous air pressure, note that this cylinder's adjuster is a stop, not a lock; you would need an external rod lock or the AirTAC BSAI clamp-lock series. Since the stroke is under 300mm, side-load stress is minimal, but the 32mm rod and M27x2 thread handle high forces well. Mounting options are limited to Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2.
Quick checklist
The rear adjusting screw acts as a mechanical stop that shortens the effective stroke. With a 50mm nominal stroke and a 40mm adjustment range, you can tune the usable travel window from 10mm to 50mm. The adjuster only sets the travel end and does not lock the load without live air pressure.
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, it provides 6136N of push force and 5734N of pull force. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 8590N. The maximum operating pressure is 1.0 MPa.
