The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ125 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ125X220-50 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 220mm 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 SAIJ125X220-50 is a double-acting profile cylinder that adds a rear mechanical stopper to the standard ISO 15552 dimensional interface. With a nominal 220 mm stroke and a 50 mm adjustment range, you can dial the effective travel back to anywhere between 170 and 220 mm. This on-machine tuning eliminates the need to swap hardware when finalizing end positions.
Featuring a 125 mm bore, it delivers 6136 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa and reaches a maximum of 1251 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides for CMSE and DMSE switches, while the carbon steel rod and PT G1/2 tapered port handle heavy-duty flow requirements.

Dial in the retract position from 170 to 220 mm during machine setup to accommodate different material thicknesses without changing out the cylinder.
Leverage the 1251 kgf maximum output force for high-resistance pressing operations while using the rear screw to set precise bottoming depth.
Quickly adjust the travel window on automated packaging equipment when switching to a new product format, reducing line downtime.
Selecting this 125 mm bore over a smaller 100 mm option steps the thrust up significantly from 3681 N to 6136 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, which is critical for moving heavy jigs or forming loads. You would choose the SAIJ adjustable-stroke variant over a fixed SAI cylinder when you need to accommodate product size changeovers on a packaging line or fine-tune the retract end position during machine commissioning without adding external stopper blocks.
The rear adjuster acts purely as a travel stop and does not lock the load; for true load-holding without live air pressure, consider an AirTAC SAIL pneumatic lock or BSAI clamp-lock cylinder. The mounting footprint uses the reduced SAIJ set of Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2. Because the 220 mm stroke is relatively short for this bore, side-load stress is minimal, but an external guide is still recommended for heavy lateral loads.
Quick checklist
The rear of the cylinder features an external adjusting screw that acts as a mechanical stopper. It allows you to shorten the effective stroke by up to 50 mm, providing a usable travel window of 170 to 220 mm without replacing the cylinder.
At a standard operating pressure of 0.5 MPa, it provides 6136 N of pull force and 8590 N of push force. At the maximum rated pressure of 1.0 MPa, it can deliver up to 1251 kgf.
