The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ125 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ125X140-40S 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-S is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear-mounted stroke adjuster. It provides a usable travel window of 100 to 140 mm, allowing you to dial back the nominal 140 mm stroke by up to 40 mm during commissioning. This bore size delivers substantial thrust, yielding 6136 N of push force and 5734 N of pull force at a 0.5 MPa operating pressure. Equipped with a standard magnet, it integrates seamlessly with AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE solid-state sensors via the dual-side barrel grooves.
The carbon steel piston rod features an M27x2 thread, providing a robust interface for high-load couplings. Unlike fixed-stroke SAI units, this adjustable model uses an external rear stopper to set the retract end position without adding external physical stops. The rear adjuster acts purely as a travel stop and does not hold the load without live air pressure. It supports a reduced mounting set of Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, omitting the FB, CA, CB, and CR variants.

Quickly reconfigure the 100-140 mm travel window when switching product sizes on a packaging line, eliminating the need to physically swap cylinders.
Dial in the exact retract position during machine commissioning using the rear adjuster, ensuring perfect alignment without external mechanical stops.
Leverage the 6136 N of push force at 0.5 MPa for pressing or clamping applications where the exact end-position needs on-the-fly adjustment.
Choose this 125 mm bore cylinder when an application demands high force combined with variable end-stop positioning. If your setup requires less force, stepping down to an 80 mm bore yields 2513 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. The adjustable stroke is highly advantageous for product-size changeovers on a line, as it allows rapid fine-tuning of the travel end without swapping the cylinder. For load-holding without live pressure, this unit is insufficient; consider the SAIL air-released lock or BSAI clamp-lock cylinders instead.
To match this ISO 15552 interchangeable cylinder exactly, specify a 125 mm bore, 140 mm nominal stroke, 40 mm adjustment range, PT tapered port thread, and the -S magnet option. Operating speed is 30-500 mm/s, and the unit includes variable air cushions at both ends to manage kinetic energy. The standard carbon steel rod is suitable for general industrial environments.
Quick checklist
The rear adjuster acts as a mechanical stop that lets you shorten the effective stroke from 140 mm down to as little as 100 mm, providing a 40 mm tuning window for precise end-position setup.
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, it provides 6136 N of push force and 5734 N of pull force. At the maximum 1.0 MPa pressure, the push force increases to 11045 N.
