The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ125 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ125X135-40 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 135mm 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 SAIJ125X135-40 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster. It delivers 6136N of push force at 0.5 MPa and uses a PT tapered G1/2 port. The integrated rear stopper screw allows you to trim the nominal 135mm travel back by up to 40mm, creating a precise 95-135mm usable stroke window for product changeovers.
This model features a carbon steel piston rod and a 32mm rod thread, providing high rigidity against side loads. It uses variable air cushions at both ends to decelerate the moving mass, but the rear adjuster acts only as a travel stop, not a lock. For applications requiring position holding without live air pressure, you must use a related type like the SAIL or BSAI series.

Dial in the exact retract distance from 95 to 135mm during machine setup to accommodate different material thicknesses without changing the cylinder.
Quickly readjust the rear stopper screw on automated lines when switching between product sizes, saving downtime on mechanical modifications.
Leverage the 6136N thrust at 0.5MPa to push heavy workpieces into a precise end-position while using the 40mm adjustment window for final calibration.
Choose this 125mm bore when a 100mm bore (offering 3927N push at 0.5MPa) lacks the thrust to move your load, but you want to avoid stepping up to a 160mm bore. The 40mm adjustment range lets you fine-tune the retract end-position at commissioning without physically swapping the cylinder or machining external stopper blocks, which is highly beneficial on machines processing varying product sizes.
When replacing an ISO 15552 cylinder, match the 125mm bore, 135mm stroke, PT port thread, and the reduced SAIJ mounting set (Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, TCM2). Because the nominal stroke is under 300mm, external side-load guides are less critical than on longer strokes, but the heavy 125mm mass still benefits from the robust 32mm rod thread. Note that without a -S magnet option specified, this unit cannot host CMSE or DMSE sensors.
Quick checklist
The rear adjuster screw acts as a mechanical stop that lets you shorten the 135mm nominal stroke by up to 40mm, providing a usable travel window of 95-135mm. It only sets the end position and does not lock the load without live air.
At a 0.5MPa operating pressure, it provides 6136N of push force and 5734N of pull force. The maximum thrust is 1251kgf at 1.0MPa.
