The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ125 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ125X50-30 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 50mm 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 SAIJ125X50-30 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear mechanical stroke adjuster. It provides a usable travel window of 20 to 50 mm, letting you dial back the 50 mm nominal stroke by up to 30 mm during machine setup. In the 125 mm bore class, it generates a substantial 6136 N push force and 5734 N pull force at 0.5 MPa. The extruded aluminum barrel features dual-side sensor grooves, and because this unit lacks the -S magnet suffix, it operates without internal position sensing.
The rear adjuster functions strictly as a travel stop to set the end position, not as a load-holding brake. For load holding without live air pressure, you would need a different unit like the SAIL or BSAI series. This model uses a PT tapered port thread, a 32 mm carbon steel piston rod with an M27x2 rod thread, and relies on a 40 mm variable air cushion at both ends to absorb kinetic energy. Its mounting options cover the standard SAIJ subset: Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2.

Fine-tune the retraction end position within a 20 to 50 mm window to adapt machinery for varying product lengths without changing the cylinder.
Leverage 6136 N of push force at 0.5 MPa to press or support heavy workpieces while adjusting the stopper to match new tooling dimensions.
Dial in the exact end-of-stroke contact point during commissioning to prevent mechanical crashes and ensure precise product placement.
Choose this 125 mm bore cylinder when your application requires heavy thrust but variable end-stop positioning, such as accommodating different product sizes on a single line. If you need less force, stepping down to an 80 mm bore drops the 0.5 MPa push force to 2513 N. Stepping up to a 160 mm bore raises it to 10053 N. The adjustable stroke prevents the need to physically swap cylinders or bolt on external stops during changeovers.
When specifying this ISO 15552 interchangeable replacement, verify the 50 mm nominal stroke, the 30 mm adjustment range, the PT G1/2 port, and the carbon steel rod material. Since the standard stroke is 50 mm, side-loading is minimal, but the 32 mm rod and M27x2 thread provide excellent structural rigidity. The operating speed is 30-500 mm/s, which is lower than smaller bores due to the larger internal air volume.
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 0.9 MPa, the push force increases to 11045 N.
The rear adjuster screw acts as a mechanical stop, allowing you to shorten the effective stroke from 50 mm down to 20 mm. This provides a 20-50 mm usable travel window for fine-tuning end positions without replacing the cylinder.
