About the Airtac SAIJ125 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ125X290-50
The AirTAC SAIJ125X290-50 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 carbon steel piston rod and PT tapered port threads. By integrating an external stopper at the rear, this model allows you to fine-tune the effective travel down from its 290mm nominal stroke, creating a precise 240-290mm usable window without requiring physical cylinder swaps.
This adjuster functions strictly as a mechanical end-stop for deceleration and positioning, meaning it will not hold a load dynamically without continuous live air pressure. For applications requiring genuine load-holding safety, an external pilot-operated check valve or the related AirTAC SAIL locking cylinder is necessary. The extruded aluminum barrel includes dual sensor grooves for straightforward position feedback.

Where the Airtac SAIJ125 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ125X290-50 Is Used
Product Size Changeovers
Dial in the 240-290mm travel window during format changes on packaging lines, using the rear adjuster to accommodate different carton depths instantly.
Machine Setup Tuning
Fine-tune the exact end-of-stroke position during initial commissioning without machining external stop blocks or altering the ISO 15552 mounting footprint.
Variable End-Stop Forming
Adjust the mechanical stop on the fly for heavy-duty forming or pressing applications that need slight positional variance across different material batches.
Is the Airtac SAIJ125 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ125X290-50 the Right Cylinder?
Selecting this 125mm bore makes sense when your application requires the 6136N thrust at 0.5 MPa (or 8590N at 0.7 MPa) and on-the-fly end-position tuning during machine commissioning. If your process demands less force, stepping down to a 100mm bore yields 3927N at 0.5 MPa, whereas moving up to a 160mm bore provides 10053N. The adjustable rear stop is ideal for product-size changeovers, whereas a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder is better suited for dedicated, single-purpose stations.
When ordering a direct ISO 15552 replacement, verify the 125mm bore, 290mm stroke, 50mm adjustment range, PT port threads, and absence of a magnet. Because the 290mm stroke is relatively long, the 32mm rod diameter handles significant side loads, but an external guide rail should still be used to prevent rod binding under heavy off-center loading. Mounting options are limited to Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2.

- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/NPT/G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Side load — consider a guided cylinder
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Adjust end cushion screws for smooth stops.
- check Use correct mounting accessory (FA/FB/CA/CB/LB/TC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac SAIJ125 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ125X290-50 FAQ
The rear adjuster acts as a mechanical stop that trims the effective travel. For this model, you can reduce the 290mm nominal stroke by up to 50mm, providing a usable travel window of 240-290mm. Note that this stop only sets the end position; it does not lock the load without live air pressure.
At 0.5 MPa, the SAIJ125X290-50 provides 6136N of push force and 5734N of pull force. If you increase the operating pressure to 0.7 MPa, the push force rises to 8590N.
