The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ125 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ125X240-20 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 240mm 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 SAIJ125X240-20 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, delivering 6136N of push force at 0.5 MPa. It features a 32mm carbon steel piston rod with an M27x2 thread and PT tapered ports. By integrating an external adjusting screw, this cylinder allows you to fine-tune the retract end position, creating a usable travel window between 220 and 240mm without swapping out hardware.
This adjuster acts purely as a mechanical stop to set the travel end and relies on the standard variable air cushions for deceleration; it does not hold the load without live air. For load-holding without pneumatic pressure, a related type like the SAIL or BSAI is required. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides, and adding a magnet (-S) enables tracking with CMSE reed or DMSE electronic sensors.

Dial in the 220-240mm travel window during format changes on packaging lines, using the rear screw to adapt the stroke to new carton sizes instantly.
Achieve precise end-position calibration during initial commissioning without machining external stopper blocks or altering the ISO 15552 mounting footprint.
Leverage the 6136N push force at 0.5 MPa to move heavy pallets or workpieces, relying on the robust 32mm carbon steel rod to withstand demanding industrial loads.
Selecting this 125mm bore cylinder makes sense when your application requires substantial force—such as the 6136N push or 5734N pull at 0.5 MPa—but demands exact end-position tuning during commissioning or product changeover. If your setup needs less force, stepping down to a 100mm bore yields 3927N push force, whereas moving up to a 160mm bore provides 10053N. Because the nominal stroke is 240mm, an external guide is recommended to manage side loads and prevent excessive wear on the rod seals.
The adjustable stroke is chosen over a fixed SAI cylinder when machine setups involve variable end-stops or slight product size changes, saving the cost of stocking multiple fixed-length cylinders. When matching this ISO 15552 dimensionally interchangeable cylinder, verify the 240mm stroke, 20mm adjustment range, PT port threads, and your required mounting set. SAIJ supports Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2 mounts, omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR options.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 125mm bore cylinder provides 6136N of push force and 5734N of pull force. At 0.9 MPa, the push force increases to 11045N.
The rear adjusting screw acts as a mechanical stopper that lets you shorten the effective travel from the 240mm nominal stroke down to 220mm. This creates a 220-240mm adjustable window for fine-tuning the end position at commissioning, but it does not lock the load without live air pressure.
