The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ125 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ125X140-40 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 140mm 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 SAIJ125X140-40 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, delivering 6136N of push force at 0.5 MPa. It features a standard carbon steel rod and a PT tapered port. By integrating an external adjusting screw, this model allows you to fine-tune the effective travel window down to 100-140 mm without swapping out the entire unit.
Because the rear stopper simply trims the retract end-position, it acts as a travel stop rather than a load lock. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides for adding CMSE reed or DMSE electronic switches. For applications requiring position holding without live air pressure, an external rod lock or a related SAIL pneumatic lock cylinder is necessary.

Dial in the 100-140 mm retract window on the fly to accommodate different product lengths on a packaging line without changing cylinders.
Fine-tune the exact bottom-out point during machine commissioning using the rear adjuster, ensuring precise mechanical alignment.
Leverage the 6136N push force at 0.5 MPa for pressing operations, adjusting the stroke depth to prevent over-travel on sensitive tooling.
Selecting this 125 mm bore cylinder makes sense when your application requires substantial force but demands variable end-stops for product changeovers. If 6136N at 0.5 MPa is excessive, stepping down to an 80 mm bore yields 2513N; if you need more power, a 160 mm bore provides 10053N. The adjustable 40 mm window is ideal for dialing in exact retraction distances during commissioning, avoiding the need to bolt on external stops or buy multiple fixed-stroke SAI cylinders.
When replacing an ISO 15552 cylinder, match the 125 mm bore, 140 mm nominal stroke, PT port thread, and mounting style. SAIJ supports Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2 mounts, deliberately omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR. Note that operating speed for this bore size is 30-500 mm/s. Although the 140 mm stroke is relatively short, always ensure adequate external guiding if the load geometry induces high bending moments.
Quick checklist
The rear adjusting screw acts as a mechanical stopper that shortens the effective stroke. For this model, you can trim the 140 mm nominal stroke back by up to 40 mm, creating a usable travel window of 100-140 mm to fine-tune the end position.
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 125 mm bore cylinder provides 6136N of push force and 5734N of pull force. It can reach up to 11045N push force at 0.7 MPa.
