The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ50 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ50AX170-75 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 170mm 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 SAIJ50X170-75 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear-mounted stroke adjuster. It provides a usable travel window of 95 to 170 mm, allowing you to dial back the nominal 170 mm stroke by up to 75 mm during commissioning. This bore size delivers 982 N of push thrust and 825 N of pull thrust at 0.5 MPa, making it well-suited for moderate-force positioning tasks.
This model is built with an SUS420J2 stainless steel piston rod for enhanced corrosion resistance and uses PT tapered port threads. The extruded aluminum barrel incorporates sensor grooves on both sides. Because the rear adjuster acts strictly as a mechanical stop and the built-in air cushions only manage end-of-travel deceleration, this cylinder cannot hold a load without continuous live air pressure.

Dial in the exact retract distance within the 95-170 mm window during machine commissioning to perfect product hand-offs.
Quickly adapt the stroke length on packaging lines handling different carton sizes without replacing the entire actuator.
Use the rear screw to set a precise mechanical stop for moderate-force pressing or indexing operations up to 982 N.
Choose this 50 mm bore when a 40 mm bore (providing 628 N push force at 0.5 MPa) is insufficient, but a 63 mm bore (delivering 1559 N) would be excessive for your application. The generous 75 mm adjustment range is ideal for product changeovers or fine-tuning end positions without swapping the cylinder or adding external stopper blocks. For load-holding requirements without live air, consider an AirTAC SAIL or BSAI cylinder instead.
When replacing an ISO 15552 cylinder, match the 50 mm bore, 170 mm stroke, G1/4 port, and PT thread type. The SAIJ mounting set includes Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2 options, omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR. Since this unit lacks a magnet, it does not support CMSE or DMSE sensors.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, 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 operating speed range is 30-800 mm/s.
The rear adjuster screw lets you shorten the effective travel from the nominal 170 mm down to 95 mm. This mechanical stop fine-tunes the retract end position but does not lock the load; live air pressure is required to hold position.
