The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ50 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ50BX1000-20 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 1000mm 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 SAIJ50X1000-20 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster that creates a 980-1000 mm usable travel window. Delivering 982 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, it integrates a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides for flexible switch placement.
This model utilizes a PT tapered G1/4 port and variable air cushions at both ends to manage deceleration. The rear adjustment screw acts purely as a travel stop to fine-tune the end position without requiring external stops. It supports a mounting subset of Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2.

Dial in the 980-1000 mm travel window during size changeovers without physically replacing the cylinder or adding external stopper blocks.
Fine-tune the exact retract position at commissioning using the rear screw, absorbing mechanical setup tolerances on long-stroke machinery.
Leverage the SUS304 stainless steel rod for reliable actuation in washdown or chemical exposure areas where carbon steel rods would fail.
Choose this 50 mm bore when 40 mm falls short at 628 N, but 63 mm provides excessive force at 1559 N. The 20 mm adjustment range is ideal for product changeovers, allowing you to dial in the exact end-stop during commissioning rather than swapping a fixed SAI cylinder. Because the stroke is 1000 mm, an external guide is recommended to manage side loads on the extended rod.
For ISO 15552 replacement matching, verify the 1000 mm stroke, 20 mm adjustment, PT port, and SUS304 rod material. Note that the rear adjuster and air cushions do not hold the load without live air; for true position holding, consider the SAIL or BSAI series.
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. It can reach a maximum push force of 1767 N at 0.9 MPa.
The rear adjuster acts as a mechanical stop, allowing you to shorten the nominal 1000 mm stroke by up to 20 mm, creating a 980-1000 mm travel window. It only sets the end position and does not lock the load without continuous air pressure.
