The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ50 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ50AX250-75 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 SAIJ50X250-75 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a 50 mm bore and a 250 mm nominal stroke. A rear-mounted adjusting screw allows you to dial back the effective travel by up to 75 mm, creating a precise 175-250 mm usable window for fine-tuning retract end positions without adding external stops. It delivers 982 N of push force and 825 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, making it well-suited for moderate-load handling tasks.
This unit is configured with an SUS420J2 stainless steel rod (option A) for enhanced corrosion resistance and utilizes PT tapered port threads with a G1/4 connection. The extruded aluminum barrel incorporates sensor grooves on both sides; adding a magnet later allows the use of AirTAC CMSE reed or DMSE electronic solid-state switches. The rear adjuster acts purely as a travel stop to set deceleration and end position, so live air pressure is required to maintain the load.

Quickly re-tune the 175-250 mm retract window during packaging line size changes without replacing the cylinder or adding shims.
Dial in the exact end position for a diverting gate on a conveyor to accommodate varying package lengths on the fly.
Fine-tune the tooling end-stop during initial commissioning to find the optimal clamping position before locking down the sequence.
Select this 50 mm bore cylinder when an application requires 982 N of thrust at 0.5 MPa, stepping down from a 63 mm bore (1559 N) if you want a lighter footprint, or up from a 40 mm bore (628 N) when extra force is needed. The 75 mm adjustment range is ideal for machines handling frequent product-size changeovers, allowing operators to reposition the retract end-stop on the fly rather than physically swapping out a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder.
Because the 250 mm stroke is substantial, ensure the piston rod side-loading is controlled with an external guide to prevent premature seal wear. For true load-holding without continuous air pressure, note that the SAIJ adjuster is not a brake; you would need to specify an external rod lock or look at related types like the SAIL or BSAI. This model is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552 and uses the reduced SAIJ mounting set: Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2.
Quick checklist
At a 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 lets you shorten the 250 mm nominal stroke by up to 75 mm, providing a usable travel range of 175 to 250 mm. It acts as a mechanical stop to set the end position and does not lock the load without live air pressure.
