The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ50 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ50AX155-40 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 155mm stroke, G1/4 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 SAIJ50X155-40 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, allowing you to dial back the nominal 155 mm travel by up to 40 mm. This creates a precise 115-155 mm usable window, ideal for fine-tuning end positions during commissioning without swapping hardware. It delivers 982 N of push force and 825 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa.
This variant features a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod (code A) for improved corrosion resistance and uses PT tapered port threads with a G1/4 connection. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides, though this specific unit lacks the internal magnet, meaning position sensing via CMSE or DMSE switches is not supported without modification.

Quickly reconfigure the retract distance across a 115-155 mm window when switching a packaging line to a different product size.
Fine-tune the exact endpoint during machine commissioning to avoid hard mechanical crashes without machining new spacers.
Adjust the depth of a pressing or forming operation on the fly to accommodate material thickness variations.
Choose this 50 mm bore when an application demands moderate thrust—delivering 982 N push at 0.5 MPa—stepping up from a 40 mm bore (628 N) if extra force is needed, or dropping down if a smaller 32 mm bore (402 N) suffices. The 40 mm adjustment range is selected when a process requires significant product-size changeover flexibility, allowing the retract end-stop to move across a 115 to 155 mm window. Unlike a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder, this rear screw lets you trim travel mechanically without adding external stops.
For ISO 15552 replacement matching, confirm the 50 mm bore, 155 mm stroke, 40 mm adjustment, PT G1/4 port, and the absence of a magnet (-S). Because the stroke is 155 mm, side-load risks are moderate, but always guide the load externally for long unsupported travels. Remember that the rear adjuster acts only as a travel stop; it will not hold the load without live air. For true load-holding, consider the SAIL or BSAI series.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 50 mm bore cylinder provides 982 N of push force and 825 N of pull force. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 1374 N.
The rear adjuster screw acts as a mechanical stop, allowing you to shorten the effective stroke from its nominal 155 mm down to 115 mm. This creates a 115-155 mm adjustable travel window for fine-tuning the retract position without replacing the cylinder.
