The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ50 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ50BX175-40S 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 SAIJ50X175-40-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster. It provides a usable travel window of 135 to 175 mm, allowing you to dial in the exact end position during commissioning without adding external stops. In the 50 mm bore class, it delivers 982 N of push force and 825 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa.
This variant features a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance and includes a built-in magnet for CMSE and DMSE sensors. The extruded aluminum barrel has sensor grooves on both sides, and the rear adjuster acts purely as a mechanical stop to set deceleration, not to hold the load without live air pressure.

Quickly fine-tune the retract end position by up to 40 mm when switching production lines to accommodate slightly different product lengths.
Dial in precise end-of-stroke positioning during commissioning without the need to bolt on custom external physical stops.
Adjust the cylinder travel window on the fly to handle varying package dimensions on packaging and sorting conveyors.
Select this 50 mm bore when you need more thrust than the 40 mm class (628 N at 0.5 MPa) but want a lighter frame than the 63 mm bore (1559 N). An adjustable stroke is ideal for product changeovers on a line, letting you fine-tune the retract end by up to 40 mm instead of swapping a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder. To replace this ISO 15552 cylinder, match the 50 mm bore, 175 mm stroke, PT tapered port threads, and the -S magnet requirement.
Because the nominal stroke is 175 mm, side loads are moderate, but you should still ensure proper guiding for long unsupported rods. Note that the SAIJ mounting set includes Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, omitting the FB, CA, CB, and CR options. If your application requires true load-holding without continuous air pressure, use an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve, or switch to the SAIL or BSAI series.
Quick checklist
The rear adjusting screw lets you shorten the effective nominal stroke by up to 40 mm. This creates a usable travel window of 135 to 175 mm, allowing precise end-position tuning without replacing the cylinder.
At an operating pressure of 0.5 MPa, the SAIJ50X175-40-S provides 982 N of push force and 825 N of pull force. At the maximum pressure of 1.0 MPa, it delivers up to 200 kgf.
