The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ125 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ125X475-40 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 475mm 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 SAIJ125X475-40 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, allowing you to dial back the nominal 475 mm travel by up to 40 mm. This creates a precise 435-475 mm usable stroke window, allowing you to fine-tune end positions at commissioning without swapping out the cylinder or adding external stops. It delivers robust thrust, generating 6136 N of push force and 5734 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa.
Featuring a 32 mm carbon steel rod and an M27x2 rod thread, this unit is built to handle heavy loads. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides for flexible switch placement. If position detection is needed later, you can add AirTAC CMSE reed or DMSE electronic solid-state sensors, though a magnet is required for them to function.

Dial in the exact 435-475 mm end position during machine commissioning to accommodate varying product lengths without fabricating new physical stopper blocks.
Rapidly adjust the retract stroke on a packaging line when switching between different pallet or container sizes, leveraging the 6136 N push force for heavy loads.
Utilize the 475 mm travel for large-format material handling, making fine adjustments to the final position via the rear screw rather than reprogramming the entire pneumatic system.
Choose this 125 mm bore when a 100 mm cylinder (providing 3927 N push at 0.5 MPa) lacks the necessary force, but a 160 mm bore (10053 N push) would be excessive. The adjustable stroke is ideal for product-size changeovers on a line, letting you shift the end-stop dynamically rather than machining new hard stops. Because the stroke is 475 mm, the extended rod is susceptible to side-loading; always use an external guide to prevent premature seal wear.
To match this ISO 15552 interchangeable cylinder, specify a 125 mm bore, 475 mm stroke, 40 mm adjustment range, PT tapered port thread, and your required mounting option. The SAIJ series supports Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2 mounts, omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR. Note that the rear adjuster acts only as a travel stop and does not hold the load without live air; for dead-air load holding, consider an AirTAC SAIL or BSAI cylinder.
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 its maximum 1.0 MPa pressure, it can deliver up to 1251 kgf.
The rear adjuster screw allows you to shorten the 475 mm nominal stroke by up to 40 mm, creating a usable travel window of 435-475 mm. This stopper only sets the end position and deceleration; it does not lock the load without continuous air pressure.
