The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ50 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ50AX900-100S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 900mm 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 SAIJ50X900-100-S is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster. It delivers 982 N of push force and 825 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, utilizing a 20 mm carbon rod with an M16x1.5 thread. This specific SKU features a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod (material code A) for enhanced corrosion resistance and includes a magnet (-S) for position sensing.
Because of the 100 mm adjustment code, the effective travel window can be fine-tuned from 800 mm up to the full 900 mm nominal stroke without swapping hardware. The extruded aluminum barrel incorporates sensor grooves on both sides, allowing you to easily mount AirTAC CMSE reed or DMSE electronic solid-state switches along the stroke.

Dial in the exact retraction point between 800 and 900 mm during machine commissioning to accommodate different material lengths without changing cylinders.
Rapidly adjust the end-of-stroke position on packaging lines when switching between box sizes, relying on the 100 mm trim range for fast setup.
Leverage the built-in magnet and dual sensor grooves to mount CMSE or DMSE switches, confirming the adjusted end position across the long 900 mm travel.
Choose this 50 mm bore when an application requires more thrust than a 40 mm bore (628 N push at 0.5 MPa) but lacks the physical space or air volume for a 63 mm cylinder. The adjustable 800-900 mm window is ideal for machine setups requiring variable end-stops during product changeovers, eliminating the need to bolt on external stops or buy a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder. Fluid must be filtered to 40 um.
At 900 mm of travel, the unsupported piston rod is highly susceptible to side-loading; an external guide mechanism is required to prevent premature seal wear. Note that the rear adjuster acts only as a travel stop and does not hold the load without live air—use an AirTAC SAIL or BSAI cylinder for pneumatic locking. This model uses PT tapered ports and supports Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2 mounts (omitting FB, CA, CB, CR). It is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552.
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 adjusting screw acts as an external stopper, allowing you to shorten the effective stroke by up to 100 mm. This creates an adjustable travel window from 800 mm to 900 mm, enabling fine-tuning of the end position without replacing the cylinder.
