The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ125 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ125X270-20 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 270mm 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 SAIJ125X270-20 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder engineered to deliver substantial thrust, providing 6136N push force at 0.5 MPa. It features a 125mm bore, a 270mm nominal stroke, and a PT tapered port thread. By incorporating a rear adjusting screw, this unit allows you to fine-tune the retract end position, creating a usable travel window between 250 and 270mm without adding external stops.
The carbon steel rod and M27x2 thread provide a robust interface for heavy loads, while the extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides. You can install switches directly without brackets, though this base configuration omits the magnet, requiring a -S suffix if CMSE reed or DMSE electronic sensors are needed. The rear stopper sets the travel limit but does not lock the load; use a SAIL or BSAI cylinder for pilot-operated load holding without live air.

Dial in the 250-270mm travel window during product size changes on large equipment, avoiding the need to physically swap out cylinders for different stroke requirements.
Fine-tune the retract end-stop during commissioning to achieve exact material contact points, utilizing the 6136N force output for heavy pressing and forming tasks.
Move substantial payloads along a 270mm path with external guides, relying on the robust 32mm carbon steel rod to maintain structural integrity under demanding conditions.
Select this 125mm bore when an 80mm cylinder (delivering 2513N push at 0.5 MPa) is undersized, but a 160mm unit is physically too large. The 20mm adjustment range is ideal for product changeovers on heavy machinery, letting you dial in the exact end-of-stroke position at commissioning rather than swapping a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder. As a true profile cylinder, it is dimensionally interchangeable with ISO 15552 mounting interfaces.
For this 270mm stroke, ensure adequate external guiding to prevent excessive side loading on the rod. The available mounting set includes Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, deliberately omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR. Operating speed is rated for 30-500 mm/s, supported by 40mm variable air cushions at both ends to decelerate the heavy moving mass smoothly.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 125mm bore cylinder provides 6136N of push force and 5734N of pull force. At the maximum 1.0 MPa pressure, it can deliver up to 1251 kgf.
The rear adjuster screw acts as a mechanical stop that lets you shorten the effective stroke by up to 20mm, providing a usable travel window of 250 to 270mm. This stopper only sets the end position and does not hold the load without continuous air pressure.
