The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ50 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ50BX280-75S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 280mm 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 SAIJ50X280-75-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster. It provides a usable travel window of 205-280 mm, letting you dial back the nominal 280 mm stroke by up to 75 mm during commissioning without swapping out the unit. Delivering 982 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, it bridges the gap between smaller 40 mm bores and heavier 63 mm actuators.
This SKU ships with a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance and includes a magnet for position sensing. It is fully compatible with AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors. The extruded aluminum barrel incorporates sensor grooves on both sides, and because this is a profile cylinder, it omits the FB, CA, CB, and CR mounts, utilizing a reduced SAIJ mounting set (Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, TCM2).

Dial in the 205-280 mm travel window during format size changes on a packaging line, using the rear screw to fine-tune the retract position without adding external stopper blocks.
Perfect for commissioning new equipment where the exact end-of-stroke position is unknown, letting technicians trim up to 75 mm off the nominal 280 mm stroke to clear mechanical obstructions.
Ideal for testing fixtures that require multiple retract distances, providing a hard stop at the rear while the air cushion decelerates the load safely.
Choose this 50 mm bore when an application requires 982 N push force at 0.5 MPa, which is significantly more than the 628 N from a 40 mm bore, yet lighter and faster than a 63 mm unit. The 75 mm adjustment range is ideal for product changeovers on a line, allowing operators to set variable end-stops on the fly rather than machining new hard stops. If your process requires the load to be held mechanically without live air pressure, note that the rear adjuster here acts only as a travel stop, not a lock; you would need an external rod lock or a SAIL/BSAI series cylinder instead.
Because the 280 mm stroke is substantial, the 20 mm rod diameter and M16x1.5 rod thread will experience some deflection under heavy side loads. For strokes of 300 mm or more, always guide the load externally to prevent rod bending. This actuator is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, uses PT tapered ports (G1/4), and operates at speeds of 30-800 mm/s.
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.
The rear adjuster screw lets you shorten the effective travel from 280 mm down to a minimum of 205 mm, creating a 75 mm adjustable window. The adjuster acts as a mechanical stop to set the retract position and does not lock the load without live air pressure.
