The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ50 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ50AX240-20S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 240mm 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 SAIJ50X240-20-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, allowing you to fine-tune the end-of-travel position during commissioning. With a nominal 240 mm stroke and a 20 mm adjustment range, it provides a usable travel window of 220 to 240 mm without needing external stops. It delivers 982 N of push force and 825 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, fitting medium-force applications perfectly.
This variant features a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod (material code A) for enhanced corrosion resistance and includes a built-in magnet (-S) for use with AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides, and fluid must be filtered to 40 um. It supports a speed range of 30-800 mm/s and uses PT tapered port threading (G1/4) for reliable pneumatic connections.

Dial in the exact 220-240 mm travel window during initial commissioning to perfect end-positioning without adding external mechanical stops.
Quickly adapt the retract end-stop on packaging lines when processing different product sizes, using the rear screw to trim up to 20 mm of stroke.
Fine-tune the pusher stroke on a conveyor sorting system to accommodate varying package lengths without replacing the entire cylinder.
Choose this 50 mm bore when an application requires roughly 982 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, stepping up from the 40 mm bore (628 N) or down from the 63 mm bore (1559 N). An adjustable stroke is selected over a fixed SAI cylinder when you need variable end-stops for product changeovers or precise machine setup without physically swapping the actuator. At 240 mm nominal stroke, the 16 mm rod diameter handles moderate side loads, but long unsupported strokes still require an external guide to prevent binding.
For exact ISO 15552 dimensional interchangeability, match the 50 mm bore, 240 mm nominal stroke, 20 mm adjustment range, PT G1/4 port, and -S magnet. The SAIJ mounting set includes Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2 options, omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR. Note that the rear adjuster acts only as a travel stop and does not hold the load without live air; for true load-holding without pressure, use an SAIL or BSAI cylinder, or an external rod lock.
Quick checklist
At a 0.5 MPa operating pressure, the 50 mm bore provides 982 N of push force and 825 N of pull force. At the maximum 1.0 MPa pressure, it delivers up to 200 kgf.
The rear adjuster screw acts as a mechanical stop that lets you shorten the effective travel from the nominal 240 mm down to 220 mm. This allows precise end-position tuning during setup, but it is a stop, not a lock, and will not hold the load without live air pressure.
