The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ50 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ50BX180-30 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 180mm 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 SAIJ50X180-30 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster that creates a 150-180mm usable travel window from its 180mm nominal stroke. Delivering 982N of push force at 0.5MPa, it handles mid-range automation tasks efficiently. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides for flexible mounting of CMSE and DMSE switches.
This variant uses a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance and features PT tapered port threads. The rear adjuster acts purely as a mechanical stop to dial in the end position during commissioning without adding external stops. It is not a locking device, so load-holding without live air requires a SAIL or BSAI cylinder.

Dial in the exact 150 to 180mm travel distance during machine setup without swapping cylinders or adding external stopper blocks.
Quickly adjust the retract end-position to accommodate varying package sizes on a single conveyor handling system.
Leverage the SUS304 stainless steel rod for reliable mid-force clamping in washdown or chemical exposure areas.
Choose this 50mm bore when 40mm (628N at 0.5MPa) is insufficient but 63mm (1559N) is oversized. The 30mm adjustment range is ideal for product changeovers where exact end-of-stroke positioning varies. For strokes of 180mm, the 16mm rod and M12x1.25 thread handle moderate side loads, though longer unsupported strokes still need an external guide. To match this ISO 15552 cylinder, specify 50mm bore, 180mm stroke, 30mm adjustment, PT G1/4 ports, and the SUS304 (B) rod option.
Quick checklist
It provides 982N push and 825N pull force at 0.5MPa, reaching 1374N push at 0.7MPa. The operational speed range is 30-800mm/s.
The rear adjuster screw lets you shorten the effective travel from 180mm down to 150mm. It functions as a travel stop for fine-tuning, not a lock, so it will not hold a load without live air pressure.
