The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ50 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ50AX270-30 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 SAIJ50X270-30 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, allowing you to dial back the 270 mm nominal travel by up to 30 mm for a precise 240-270 mm usable window. Delivering 982 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, it bridges the gap between smaller 40 mm bores and larger 63 mm units. The extruded aluminum barrel features sensor grooves on both sides, though this specific configuration omits the internal magnet.
This variant utilizes a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod (material code A) for enhanced corrosion resistance compared to standard carbon steel. The rear adjuster acts purely as a mechanical stop to fine-tune the retract end position during commissioning; it does not lock the load without continuous air pressure. For load-holding requirements, consider the SAIL or BSAI series instead.

Quickly adapt the 240-270 mm end-stop for different product lengths on a packaging line without changing the physical cylinder mounting.
Fine-tune the retract stroke during machine commissioning to achieve exact positioning without adding external mechanical stops.
Utilize the 982 N push force to drive pressing and joining operations where the final bottoming position requires slight adjustment.
Selecting this 50 mm bore makes sense when an application requires moderate thrust—such as the 982 N push force at 0.5 MPa—without stepping up to the heavier 63 mm bore. The adjustable 240-270 mm travel window is ideal for machine setups requiring product changeovers, eliminating the need to physically swap cylinders or bolt on external stops. If your setup requires position holding without live air pressure, this cylinder's adjuster will not function as a lock, meaning a SAIL or BSAI variant would be necessary.
When replacing an ISO 15552 cylinder, ensure you match the 50 mm bore, 270 mm stroke, 30 mm adjustment range, and PT tapered port threads. The mounting interface supports Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2 accessories. Because the 270 mm stroke is moderately long, ensure adequate external guiding to prevent excessive side-loading on the SUS420J2 rod.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 50 mm bore cylinder provides 982 N of push force and 825 N of pull force. At the maximum 1.0 MPa pressure, it can deliver up to 200 kgf.
The rear adjuster screw allows you to shorten the 270 mm nominal stroke by up to 30 mm, creating a 240-270 mm travel window. It functions as a mechanical stop for end-position tuning and does not lock the load without live air pressure.
