The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ125 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ125X1000-20S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 1000mm 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 SAIJ125X1000-20-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, allowing you to dial back the nominal 1000 mm travel by up to 20 mm. This creates a usable 980-1000 mm end-position window for fine-tuning at commissioning without adding external stops. It features a carbon steel piston rod and a PT tapered G1/2 port. Because it includes the -S magnet option, it directly supports AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE solid-state sensors in the dual-side barrel grooves.
Operating at 0.7 MPa, this 125 mm bore generates 8590 N of push force and 5734 N of pull force, placing it firmly in heavy-duty machinery territory. The rear adjuster acts purely as a travel stop and works in tandem with the 40 mm variable air cushions at both ends to decelerate the load. It does not hold the load without live air; for pneumatic locking, consider the SAIL or BSAI series.

Related SAI-family variants: SAID (double rod), SAIJ (adjustable stroke), SAIL (with lock), SAIF (with valve), BSAI (enclasp / clamp-lock), and SAI-S with built-in magnet. Rod material: carbon steel (blank) / SUS420J2 (A) / SUS304 (B); seals: TPU (blank) / Viton H / NBR N.
Dial in the 980-1000 mm travel window during product family changeovers to hit new end positions without physically swapping the cylinder.
Leverage the 8590 N push force at 0.7 MPa for heavy pressing operations while using the rear stopper to fine-tune the final approach depth.
Use the 1000 mm travel for extended indexing or material handling, relying on the 40 mm air cushions to safely decelerate the load.
Choose this adjustable-stroke variant over a fixed SAI when a machine setup requires variable end-stops or product-size changeovers that would otherwise demand a physical cylinder swap. If your application requires less force, stepping down to an 80 mm bore yields 3518 N at 0.7 MPa; if you need more push, a 160 mm bore provides 14074 N.
When matching the ISO 15552 replacement, verify the 125 mm bore, 1000 mm stroke, 20 mm adjustment, G1/2 PT ports, and the -S magnet. The SAIJ mounting set includes Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR. Because the stroke is 1000 mm, the 32 mm rod is highly susceptible to side-loading; an external guide rail is strongly recommended to prevent rod binding and premature seal wear.
Quick checklist
At 0.7 MPa, this 125 mm bore cylinder provides 8590 N of push force and 5734 N of pull force. The operating speed range is 30-500 mm/s.
A rear adjusting screw lets you shorten the effective travel by up to 20 mm, creating a 980-1000 mm usable window. This stopper sets the travel end but does not lock the load without live air pressure.
