The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ50 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ50AX270-20S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 270mm 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 SAIJ50X270-20-S is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster. It delivers a 982N push force at 0.5 MPa and features a 20mm adjustment range, creating a precise 250-270mm usable travel window for commissioning flexibility.
This variant includes an SUS420J2 stainless steel rod (code A) and a built-in magnet (-S) for position sensing with AirTAC CMSE reed or DMSE electronic solid-state switches. The extruded aluminum barrel incorporates sensor grooves on both sides, and the rear stopper allows you to fine-tune the retract end position without adding external stops.

Dial in the 250-270mm travel window during product size transitions without physically replacing the cylinder or adding external mechanical stops.
Fine-tune the retract stroke end during commissioning to absorb mechanical tolerance variations and perfectly time the machine sequence.
Adjust the stroke on the fly to push different box sizes to a designated lane while maintaining the 982N push force at 0.5 MPa.
Choose this 50mm bore when an application requires roughly 982N of push force at 0.5 MPa, stepping up from a 40mm bore that provides 628N. The adjustable stroke is ideal for machine setups requiring variable end-stops or product-size changeovers, letting you dial in the exact 250-270mm travel without swapping the cylinder for a fixed-stroke SAI.
For drop-in compatibility, match the 50mm bore, 270mm stroke, 20mm adjustment, PT tapered port threads, and the -S magnet. The SAIJ mounting set includes Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2. Because the stroke is 270mm, the 16mm rod needs external guidance to prevent excessive side-loading. The rear adjuster acts only as a travel stop, so for load-holding without live air pressure, select an SAIL or BSAI cylinder instead.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 50mm bore cylinder provides a push force of 982N and a pull force of 825N. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 1374N.
The rear adjuster screw acts as a mechanical stop that lets you shorten the effective travel from the 270mm nominal stroke down to 250mm. This creates a 250-270mm usable window for fine-tuning the end position at commissioning, but it does not lock the load without live air pressure.
