The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ125 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ125X55-50S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 55mm 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 SAIJ125X55-50-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster that trims the nominal 55 mm travel back by up to 50 mm, yielding a highly versatile 5 to 55 mm usable window. It delivers 6136 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and accommodates PT tapered port threads with a G1/2 connection. Equipped with a standard magnet, it integrates seamlessly with CMSE reed and DMSE electronic solid-state sensors.
This adjustable design allows operators to fine-tune end positions at commissioning or during product changeovers without swapping the cylinder or adding external stops. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides, and the carbon steel rod provides durable service in demanding industrial environments.

Fine-tune the travel window from 5 to 55 mm during machine setup to perfect the pressing or clamping depth on the fly.
Use the rear adjuster to set precise deceleration points for heavy 125 mm bore loads without relying on external mechanical stops.
Choose this 125 mm bore model when an application requires substantial thrust—6136 N at 0.5 MPa or up to 11045 N at 0.9 MPa—combined with precise, variable end-stop control. If your force requirements are lower, stepping down to a 100 mm bore yields 3927 N at 0.5 MPa, whereas moving up to a 160 mm bore provides 10053 N. The rear adjuster acts solely as a travel stop to set deceleration; it does not hold the load without live air. For true load-holding without continuous pressure, consider the SAIL or BSAI series.
As a dimensionally interchangeable ISO 15552 cylinder, it replaces comparable profile cylinders using the exact bore, 55 mm stroke, 50 mm adjustment, PT port, and -S magnet specifications. The SAIJ mounting set includes Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2 options, deliberately omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR. Because the stroke is short, side-loading is minimal, but an external guide is always recommended for heavy loads.
Quick checklist
At a 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 shortens the 55 mm nominal stroke by up to 50 mm, creating a usable travel window of 5 to 55 mm. This allows precise end-position tuning without changing the cylinder.
