The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ50 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ50BX175-100 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 175mm 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 SAIJ50X175-100 is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster. It provides a nominal 175 mm stroke that can be dialed back by up to 100 mm, creating a highly flexible 75-175 mm usable travel window. Delivering 982 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, it handles mid-range actuation while allowing precise end-position tuning during commissioning.
This SKU is configured with a SUS304 (B) stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance and uses PT tapered port threads. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides for CMSE reed or DMSE electronic switches. Because the rear adjuster acts solely as a travel stop and does not hold the load without live air, machine builders needing fail-safe holding should evaluate the SAIL or BSAI series instead.

Dial in the exact retract distance within the 75-175 mm window during machine setup without swapping out the entire actuator.
Adjust the stroke on the fly to accommodate different package lengths moving down a packaging line.
Fine-tune the final end position at machine startup to compensate for mechanical tolerances without adding external stops.
Choose this 50 mm bore when an application requires more thrust than the 40 mm version (628 N push at 0.5 MPa) but is constrained by space, avoiding the bulk of a 63 mm cylinder. The 100 mm adjustment range is ideal for product-size changeovers on a packaging line, eliminating the need to physically swap cylinders or add external mechanical stops.
For an exact ISO 15552 replacement match, specify a 50 mm bore, 175 mm stroke, 100 mm adjustment, PT port thread, and the SUS304 (B) rod material. Note that this model omits the -S magnet; position sensing requires adding that option to drive CMSE or DMSE switches. The SAIJ mounting set includes 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 the maximum 1.0 MPa pressure, it can deliver up to 200 kgf.
A rear adjusting screw acts as a mechanical stopper, allowing you to shorten the effective travel from the 175 mm nominal stroke down to as little as 75 mm. This stopper only sets the travel end and does not lock or hold the load without continuous air pressure.
