The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ50 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ50AX30-30S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 30mm 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 SAIJ50X30-30-S is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster. It features a 30 mm nominal stroke that can be dialed back by up to 30 mm, providing a highly versatile 0-30 mm usable travel window for exact end-position tuning during machine commissioning. Delivering 982 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, it bridges the gap between smaller 40 mm bores and larger 63 mm units.
This variant includes an SUS420J2 stainless steel rod (code A) for enhanced corrosion resistance and ships with a magnet (-S) for use with AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors. The extruded aluminum barrel incorporates sensor grooves on both sides, and the rear adjuster acts purely as a travel stop, meaning the load is never mechanically locked without live air pressure.

Dial in the exact 0-30 mm end-stop during format size changes on packaging lines without swapping out the physical cylinder.
Fine-tune the retract position at commissioning to perfectly seat components, eliminating the need for external mechanical stops.
Adjust the effective stroke dynamically for short-travel clamping or pressing tasks that require precise positional tuning.
Selecting this 50 mm bore makes sense when an application requires 982 N push force at 0.5 MPa, offering a step up from the 628 N of a 40 mm bore without the bulk of a 63 mm unit. The adjustable 0-30 mm travel window is chosen over a fixed SAI cylinder when setups demand variable end-stops or frequent product-size changeovers. Because the rear adjuster only trims the travel end and is not a locking device, any requirement to hold a load without continuous air pressure necessitates a SAIL pneumatic lock, a BSAI clamp-lock, or an external rod lock. For a true ISO 15552 replacement match, confirm the 50 mm bore, 30 mm stroke, PT tapered port threads, -30 adjustment, -S magnet, and the required mounting accessory from the SAIJ set (Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, TCM2).
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 50 mm bore cylinder generates 982 N of push force and 825 N of pull force. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 1374 N.
The rear adjusting screw allows you to shorten the 30 mm nominal stroke by up to 30 mm, creating a 0-30 mm usable travel window. It acts as a mechanical stop to set the end position and does not lock the load without live air.
