The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ125 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ125X165-30S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 165mm 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 SAIJ125X165-30-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, providing a usable travel window of 135 to 165 mm. It delivers substantial thrust, generating 6136 N of pull force and 8590 N of push force at 0.7 MPa, making it well-suited for heavy-duty positioning tasks.
This variant includes a magnetic piston for position detection and uses a PT tapered port thread. The extruded aluminum barrel features sensor grooves on both sides, allowing you to mount CMSE reed or DMSE electronic switches precisely where needed for automated feedback.

Dial in the 135-165 mm travel window during format size shifts on packaging lines, avoiding the need to physically swap out the entire actuator.
Leverage the 8590 N push force at 0.7 MPa to securely seat large components, using the rear stopper to fine-tune the exact contact depth.
Integrate the magnetic piston with DMSE electronic sensors to confirm end-of-stroke arrival while relying on the built-in air cushions for smooth deceleration.
Select this 125 mm bore model when your application requires the 6136 N pull force at 0.5 MPa and benefits from on-the-fly end-position tuning without swapping cylinders. If your setup demands less force, stepping down to an 80 mm bore yields 2268 N pull at 0.5 MPa, whereas moving up to a 160 mm bore provides 9425 N pull. The 30 mm adjustment range is ideal for accommodating slight mechanical variances or product size changeovers directly at commissioning.
When matching an ISO 15552 replacement, verify the 125 mm bore, 165 mm stroke, 30 mm adjustment range, PT G1/2 port, and the -S magnet. The SAIJ mounting set includes Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2 options, omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR. Note that the rear adjuster acts strictly as a travel stop to set deceleration, not as a lock; for load-holding without live air pressure, consider an external rod lock, or use SAIL or BSAI cylinders.
Quick checklist
At an operating pressure of 0.5 MPa, this 125 mm bore cylinder provides 6136 N of pull force and 8590 N of push force. At 0.9 MPa, the push force increases to 11045 N.
The rear adjuster screw acts as an external stopper that allows you to shorten the effective stroke by up to 30 mm, creating a usable travel window of 135 to 165 mm. It sets the travel end and relies on the air cushion for deceleration, but it does not lock or hold the load without continuous air pressure.
