The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ125 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ125X170-50S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 170mm 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 SAIJ125X170-50-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder with a rear stroke adjuster, providing a usable travel window of 120-170 mm. It delivers 6136 N of push force and 5734 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, making it suitable for heavy-duty positioning. The standard carbon steel rod features an M27x2 thread, and the PT tapered ports ensure tight pneumatic sealing.
This SAIJ variant includes a -S magnet for position sensing with AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic switches. The rear adjuster acts purely as a mechanical stop for end-position tuning and does not hold the load without live air pressure. It uses the reduced SAIJ mounting set of Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR.

Dial in the exact 120-170 mm end position during format changes on packaging lines without physically replacing the actuator.
Fine-tune the retract stop during commissioning to compensate for mechanical wear or sensor drift in heavy assembly presses.
Leverage the 6136 N push force at 0.5 MPa to eject metal parts, using the adjustable stop to vary the ejection distance safely.
Select this 125 mm bore when your application requires high thrust (6136 N at 0.5 MPa) and variable end-stop positioning within a 120-170 mm window. The adjustable stroke is ideal for machine changeovers, allowing you to fine-tune the retract position without swapping cylinders or adding external stops. For lower force requirements, a 100 mm bore offers 3927 N at 0.5 MPa.
Because the 170 mm stroke falls below the 300 mm side-load threshold, a separate external guide is less critical, though the 32 mm rod diameter handles moderate side loads well. To replace an ISO 15552 cylinder, match the 125 mm bore, 170 mm stroke, 50 mm adjustment, PT G1/2 ports, and the -S magnet. For load-holding without live air, use an SAIL or BSAI cylinder instead of relying on this rear stop.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 125 mm bore cylinder provides 6136 N of push force and 5734 N of pull force. At 0.9 MPa, the push force increases to 11045 N.
The rear adjuster screw lets you mechanically shorten the effective stroke from 170 mm down to 120 mm. This stopper only sets the travel end and deceleration; it does not lock or hold the load without continuous air pressure.
