The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ125 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ125X650-40S 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-S is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster. It delivers a robust 6136N push force at 0.5 MPa and features a 650mm nominal stroke that can be fine-tuned down by up to 40mm, creating a precise 610-650mm usable travel window. The integrated -S magnet enables position detection with AirTAC CMSE reed or DMSE electronic sensors.
Because the adjuster acts purely as a mechanical stop at the retract end, it allows rapid end-position tuning during commissioning without adding external stops. This extruded aluminum cylinder includes standard variable air cushions at both ends and utilizes a PT tapered port thread. It supports a speed range of 30-500mm/s, making it well-suited for heavy-duty cycling.

Dial in the 610-650mm retract stop during format size changes on a packaging line without swapping out the entire actuator.
Leverage the 6136N push force at 0.5MPa to seat heavy mechanical components, using the adjuster to prevent over-travel.
Fine-tune the end-of-stroke position during initial machine commissioning to achieve exact clamping pressure on large parts.
Select this 125mm bore when a smaller 100mm bore (providing 3927N push at 0.5MPa) lacks the necessary thrust, but a 160mm bore is physically excessive. The adjustable 610-650mm travel window is ideal for machinery requiring frequent product changeovers, eliminating the need to physically swap cylinders for slightly different part sizes. For stroke lengths of 650mm, the 32mm diameter carbon steel rod handles significant loads, but an external guide is strongly recommended to prevent excessive side-loading on the piston.
To replace an ISO 15552 cylinder, match the 125mm bore, 650mm stroke, PT port thread, and -S magnet requirement. Remember that the rear adjuster and air cushions only decelerate the load; they do not hold position without live air. For true load-holding without pneumatic pressure, consider an AirTAC SAIL pneumatic lock or BSAI clamp-lock cylinder. The SAIJ mounting set includes Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, deliberately omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 125mm bore cylinder provides 6136N of push force and 5734N of pull force. At its maximum 1.0 MPa pressure, it can deliver up to 1251 kgf.
The rear mechanical stopper allows you to shorten the 650mm nominal stroke by up to 40mm, providing an effective travel window of 610-650mm. This stopper only sets the end position and does not lock the load without continuous air pressure.
