The AirTAC SAIJ125 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ125X165-40 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 interchangeable with other ISO 15552 cylinders at the mounting interface.
The AirTAC SAIJ125X165-40 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster. The built-in rear stopper allows you to trim the nominal 165mm stroke back by up to 40mm, creating a precise 125-165mm usable travel window for exact end-position tuning.
This adjustable design eliminates the need to swap cylinders or add external stops during product changeovers. It includes variable air cushions at both ends (40mm cushion length) to absorb kinetic energy, operating at speeds of 30-500mm/s. The extruded aluminum barrel features sensor grooves on both sides for flexible mounting of CMSE reed or DMSE electronic sensors.

Double-rod model: the rod passes through the rear cover, so both piston faces lose rod area and push is shown at the annular-area value. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a safety margin.

Dial in the exact retraction point within the 125-165mm window during machine commissioning to accommodate different product sizes without changing the cylinder.
Quickly adapt automated assembly lines to new part dimensions by turning the rear adjuster screw, avoiding the downtime of physically swapping cylinders.
Select this 125mm bore model when your application requires heavy thrust up to 6136N at 0.5MPa (or 8590N at 0.7MPa) alongside a variable end-stop. If your force requirements are lower, stepping down to the 100mm bore yields 3927N at 0.5MPa, whereas moving up to the 160mm bore provides 10053N. The SAIJ125X165-40 is ideal for dialing in exact travel distances during commissioning without replacing the cylinder.
Because the nominal stroke is 165mm, an external guide is recommended to manage side loads. Remember that the rear adjuster acts only as a mechanical travel stop, not a lock; the cylinder cannot hold a load without live air pressure. For drop prevention, consider an AirTAC SAIL or BSAI cylinder. This model uses PT tapered port threads and supports the SAIJ mounting subset: Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2.
Quick checklist
The cylinder has a rear adjusting screw that acts as a mechanical stopper, allowing you to shorten the effective stroke by up to 40mm. This provides a usable travel window of 125-165mm so you can fine-tune the end position at commissioning without swapping the cylinder.
At 0.7MPa, the push force increases to 8590N.
