The AirTAC SAIJ125 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ125X100-40 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 100mm stroke, G1/2 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. Its standardized mounting interface makes it interchangeable with other ISO 15552 cylinders at the mounting interface.
By incorporating a 40mm adjustment range, this unit allows the effective travel to be dialed back from its 100mm nominal length, creating a precise 60-100mm usable window. This fine-tuning capability is ideal for optimizing end positions during commissioning without the need to physically swap out the cylinder.
The extruded aluminum barrel features sensor grooves on both sides, ready to accept CMSE or DMSE switches if a magnet is specified later. It uses a PT tapered port thread and a robust 32mm carbon steel rod with an M27x2 thread, providing high rigidity against side loads. The mounting hardware is limited to the SAIJ subset of Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, deliberately omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR options.

Double-rod model: the rod passes through the rear cover, so both piston faces lose rod area and push is shown at the annular-area value. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a safety margin.

Dial in the exact retraction point within the 60-100mm window to accommodate different material thicknesses or tooling lengths without changing the cylinder.
Quickly adjust the stroke length during product line changeovers by turning the rear screw, drastically reducing setup time and eliminating the need for external stopper blocks.
The adjustable stroke is chosen over a fixed SAI cylinder when a process requires variable end-stops or frequent product-size changeovers, allowing operators to reposition the stopper mechanically rather than adding external physical stops.
For replacement, ensure the ISO 15552 footprint matches your existing mount, verify the 100mm nominal stroke, and confirm the PT port thread. Because the rear adjuster acts only as a travel stop and the air cushions handle deceleration, this cylinder will not hold a load without live air pressure. If your application requires true load-holding, consider the SAIL or BSAI series instead. Furthermore, while the 32mm rod handles substantial stress, any stroke over 300mm on larger bores requires external guide rails to prevent binding.
Quick checklist
If pressure is increased to 0.7MPa, the push force rises to 8590N.
The rear adjuster acts as a mechanical stop that shortens the effective travel. For this 100mm nominal stroke cylinder, the -40 code means you can trim the stroke by up to 40mm, resulting in a usable travel window of 60 to 100mm.
