The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ50 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ50AX80-50S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 80mm 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 SAIJ50X80-50-S is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear-mounted stroke adjuster. It provides a nominal 80 mm stroke that can be dialed back by up to 50 mm, creating a highly flexible 30-80 mm usable travel window. Delivering 982 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, it is built with a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod and includes a magnet for position sensing.
This adjustable-stroke design allows you to fine-tune the retract end position at commissioning or during product changeovers without swapping the cylinder or adding external stops. The rear screw acts purely as a travel stop and works alongside standard air cushions to decelerate the load, but it does not hold the load without live air pressure. For load-holding without continuous air, an external rod lock or a related SAIL pneumatic-lock cylinder is required.

Dial in the exact retract distance from 30 to 80 mm on packaging lines when switching between different container sizes without changing hardware.
Fine-tune the final end-stop during machine commissioning to achieve precise pressing or clamping force without machining external spacers.
Provide adjustable travel limits for automated test fixtures where the effective stroke length needs to be tweaked between runs.
Choose this 50 mm bore when an application demands 982 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, stepping up from a 40 mm bore that yields 628 N, or down from a 63 mm bore providing 1559 N. The generous 50 mm adjustment range on an 80 mm nominal stroke is ideal for machines requiring variable end-stops or frequent product-size changeovers, offering flexibility that a fixed-stroke SAI cannot match. Because the stroke is relatively short, side-load stress is minimized, but the load should still be guided to prevent binding.
To match this exact ISO 15552 interchangeable replacement, specify a 50 mm bore, 80 mm stroke, PT tapered port threads (G1/4), and the -S magnet option for CMSE reed or DMSE electronic sensors. Available mountings include Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2.
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 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 1374 N.
The rear adjuster screw allows you to trim the effective stroke by up to 50 mm. With the 80 mm nominal stroke, this creates a usable travel window of 30 to 80 mm. The adjuster is a mechanical stop, not a lock, so the cylinder requires live air to hold its position.
