The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ200 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ200AX55-50 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø200mm bore and 55mm stroke, G3/4 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 SAIJ200X55-50 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster that allows you to trim the nominal 55 mm travel back by up to 50 mm. This creates a highly flexible 5 to 55 mm usable travel window, letting you dial in the exact retract end-position during commissioning without swapping out the barrel or adding external stops. Built with a robust 40 mm SUS420J2 stainless steel rod and a G3/4 PT port, it delivers massive thrust up to 15708 N at 0.5 MPa.
Because the rear adjuster acts purely as a mechanical stop and works in tandem with the variable air cushions at both ends, it decelerates the load but does not hold it without live air pressure. For fail-safe load holding, you would need to specify a separate SAIL or BSAI lock cylinder. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides, ready to accept CMSE reed or DMSE electronic switches if a magnet is added later. SAIJ supports a reduced mounting subset of Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, omitting the FB, CA, CB, and CR options.

Dial in the exact retract distance from 5 to 55 mm during machine commissioning to perfect product placement without changing hardware.
Quickly adapt automated lines to new package sizes by adjusting the rear stopper screw, eliminating the need to swap out entire cylinders.
Leverage the 15708 N of push force at 0.5 MPa for heavy pressing or forming tasks that require precise, adjustable travel limits.
Choose this 200 mm bore when your application requires extreme push force, stepping up from a 160 mm bore that provides 10053 N at 0.5 MPa. The adjustable stroke is ideal for machine changeovers where product sizes vary, allowing operators to fine-tune the retract distance on the fly rather than maintaining an inventory of fixed-stroke SAI cylinders. Since the 55 mm nominal stroke is short, side-load risks are minimal, but the heavy 40 mm rod thread provides excellent rigidity for any offset loads. Remember that the adjustment screw only sets the travel endpoint; it is not a brake.
Quick checklist
The rear adjuster screw allows you to shorten the effective stroke by up to 50 mm from the nominal 55 mm, giving a usable travel window of 5 to 55 mm. It acts as a mechanical stop to set the retract position precisely.
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, the SAIJ200X55-50 provides a push force of 15708 N and a pull force of 15080 N. At the maximum 1.0 MPa pressure, it can deliver up to 3204 kgf of push force.
