The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ125 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ125X650-40 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø125mm bore and 650mm 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 SAIJ125X650-40 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 125mm bore, a 650mm nominal stroke, and a PT tapered port thread. By turning the external stopper screw, you can trim the effective travel back by up to 40mm, creating a precise 610-650mm usable window for exact end-position tuning.
This model utilizes a carbon steel piston rod and operates at speeds between 30-500mm/s. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides, allowing for the direct mounting of CMSE reed or DMSE electronic switches if a magnet is specified later. The rear adjuster acts strictly as a travel stop to fine-tune deceleration, not as a lock, meaning live air is required to hold the load.

Dial in the 610-650mm stroke window during format changes on packaging lines, allowing rapid adaptation to different carton lengths without changing hardware.
Fine-tune the final retract position during machine commissioning to achieve precise mechanical alignment, absorbing minor tolerances in the assembly.
Leverage the 6136N push force at 0.5 MPa to move heavy workpieces or pallets, using the adjustable stop to set safe travel limits.
Choose this 125mm bore when a 100mm cylinder (providing 3927N push at 0.5 MPa) lacks the necessary thrust, but a 160mm bore (10053N) would be excessive. The adjustable 610-650mm travel window is ideal for machine setups requiring product-size changeovers, eliminating the need to swap out a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder or bolt on external stops. When specifying a replacement, ensure you match the 125mm bore, 650mm stroke, 40mm adjustment, PT port thread, and the reduced SAIJ mounting set (Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, TCM2).
Because the 650mm stroke is substantial, the 32mm carbon steel rod and M27x2 thread will still experience leverage forces; an external guide should be used to prevent side-loading damage. For applications requiring the load to be held without continuous air pressure, this cylinder is insufficient, and a SAIL air-released lock or BSAI clamp-lock cylinder should be evaluated instead.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 125mm bore cylinder provides 6136N of push force and 5734N of pull force. If pressure is increased to 0.7 MPa, the push force rises to 8590N.
The rear adjuster screw acts as a mechanical stop that lets you shorten the 650mm nominal stroke by up to 40mm, providing a usable travel window of 610-650mm. It is a travel stop and does not lock the load without live air pressure.
