The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ50 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ50AX275-50 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 275mm 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 SAIJ50X275-50 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster that allows you to dial back the travel by up to 50 mm. This yields a usable end-position window of 225 to 275 mm, letting you fine-tune the retract distance at commissioning without swapping hardware. It delivers 982 N of push thrust at 0.5 MPa, making it well-suited for moderate-force positioning tasks.
Built with a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod and PT tapered port threads, this unit resists corrosion and ensures a tight pneumatic seal. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides for CMSE reed or DMSE electronic switches. It supports a reduced mounting set of Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, omitting the FB, CA, CB, and CR options found on some fixed-stroke variants.

Dial in the exact retract distance from 225 to 275 mm during product size transitions without machining new external stop blocks.
Fine-tune the final retract position during commissioning to perfect a 982 N assembly press fit at 0.5 MPa.
Use the built-in 50 mm travel window to adapt a single actuator setup to multiple fixture lengths on the fly.
Choose this 50 mm bore when an application requires 982 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, stepping up from a 40 mm bore (628 N) for more clamping authority, or down from a 63 mm bore (1559 N) to save space. The 50 mm adjustment range is ideal for product-size changeovers on a line, acting as an external stop built into the cylinder. Because the stroke is 275 mm, an external guide is recommended to prevent side-loading damage to the rod over long unsupported travels.
For load-holding requirements, remember that the rear adjuster is a travel stop, not a lock; the cylinder will not hold its position without live air pressure. For true fail-safe holding, consider an AirTAC SAIL or BSAI cylinder instead. To replace an ISO 15552 unit, match the 50 mm bore, 275 mm stroke, 50 mm adjustment, PT G1/4 ports, and the desired mounting bracket.
Quick checklist
A rear adjusting screw acts as a mechanical stop, allowing you to shorten the effective travel by up to 50 mm. This creates a usable stroke window of 225 to 275 mm. The adjuster only sets the travel end; it does not lock the load without live air pressure.
At an operating pressure of 0.5 MPa, the SAIJ50X275-50 provides 982 N of push thrust and 825 N of pull thrust. It can reach up to 1767 N of push force at 0.9 MPa.
