The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ50 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ50BX225-40S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 225mm 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 SAIJ50X225-40-S is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster. It delivers 982N of push force at 0.5 MPa and features a 225mm nominal stroke that can be fine-tuned down by up to 40mm, creating a precise 185-225mm usable travel window. This built-in adjustability allows you to dial in the retract end-position during commissioning without adding external stopper blocks.
This specific configuration includes a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance and a position-sensing magnet. The magnet is fully compatible with AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic solid-state switches, which seat neatly into the sensor grooves machined into both sides of the extruded aluminum barrel. The standard PT tapered port is G1/4.

Dial in the 185-225mm travel window on the fly when switching between product sizes on a packaging line, avoiding physical cylinder swaps.
Fine-tune the retract stop during machine commissioning to achieve exact mechanical positioning without machining custom external spacers.
Leverage the SUS304 stainless steel rod for pushing or clamping tasks in environments where moisture or mild chemicals are present.
Select this 50mm bore cylinder when an application requires 982N of push thrust at 0.5 MPa but demands variable end-stops for product changeovers; if you need less force, the 40mm bore provides 628N, while the 63mm bore offers 1559N. The adjustable rear screw is a travel stop, not a locking mechanism, so it cannot hold a load without live air pressure. For positive load-holding, consider an external pilot-operated check valve or the related SAIL pneumatic lock cylinder. To match this ISO 15552 footprint exactly, specify the 50mm bore, 225mm stroke, 40mm adjustment, PT G1/4 port, and the -S magnet. Because the 225mm stroke is relatively long, ensure external guide rails are used to prevent excessive side-loading on the rod.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, this 50mm bore cylinder provides 982N of push force and 825N of pull force. At a maximum 0.7 MPa operating pressure, the push force increases to 1374N.
The rear adjuster screw acts as a mechanical stop that shortens the 225mm nominal stroke by up to 40mm, giving a usable travel range of 185-225mm. It only sets the end position and does not lock the load without air pressure.
