The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ50 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ50AX250-30 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 250mm 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 SAIJ50X250-30 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, enabling you to dial back the 250 mm nominal travel by up to 30 mm. This yields a precise 220-250 mm usable window, perfect 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 SKU features a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod (option A) for improved corrosion resistance and PT tapered port threads (G1/4). The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides. Note that the rear adjuster acts strictly as a travel stop and does not hold the load without live air pressure; for locking needs, consider the SAIL or BSAI series.

Quickly reconfigure the 220-250 mm travel window when switching product sizes on a packaging line, avoiding the need to physically swap out the entire cylinder.
Dial in the exact retracted stop during commissioning to perfect tooling alignment, absorbing mechanical tolerance stack-ups without adding external stopper blocks.
Provide adjustable physical endpoints for diverter arms or gating mechanisms on conveyors, allowing operators to tweak stroke limits on the fly.
Choose this 50 mm bore when an application requires roughly 982 N of thrust at 0.5 MPa, stepping up from a 40 mm bore (628 N) or down from a 63 mm bore (1559 N). The adjustable 220-250 mm window is ideal for product changeovers on a line, whereas a fixed SAI cylinder locks you into a single exact dimension. To match this cylinder for an ISO 15552 replacement, verify the 250 mm stroke, 30 mm adjustment range, PT G1/4 port, and desired mounting style.
Because the 250 mm stroke is substantial, the 20 mm piston rod should be adequately supported by an external guide to prevent excessive side-loading and premature seal wear. The SAIJ supports a reduced mounting set of Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR options.
Quick checklist
The rear adjuster screw acts as a mechanical stop that lets you shorten the effective travel from the 250 mm nominal stroke down to a minimum of 220 mm, creating a 220-250 mm usable window. It only sets the travel end and does not lock the load without continuous air pressure.
Operating at 0.5 MPa, the SAIJ50X250-30 provides 982 N of push force and 825 N of pull force. At the maximum operating pressure of 1.0 MPa, the push force reaches 1767 N.
