The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ50 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ50BX290-100 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 290mm 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 SAIJ50X290-100 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster. It provides a generous 100mm adjustment range, allowing you to dial the effective travel down from the 290mm nominal stroke to a 190mm minimum without swapping hardware. Delivering 982N of push force at 0.5MPa, it handles mid-range automation loads with precision.
This variant uses a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance and features PT tapered port threads. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides for flexible mounting of CMSE or DMSE electronic sensors. Remember the rear stopper only sets the end position; it does not hold the load without live air pressure.

Dial in the exact 190-290mm travel window during commissioning to accommodate different material thicknesses without adding external mechanical stops.
Quickly adjust the retract position on packaging lines when switching to a new carton size, minimizing machine downtime.
Fine-tune the end-of-stroke position on multi-stage assembly machines to perfectly seat components and compensate for mechanical drift.
Select this 50mm bore cylinder when your setup requires variable end-stops for frequent product changeovers, avoiding the need to physically swap out a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder. If your application needs less push force, stepping down to a 40mm bore yields 628N at 0.5MPa. For higher force demands, a 63mm bore provides 1559N.
Because the 290mm stroke is substantial, an external guide is recommended to prevent rod sag and manage side loads over extended travel. To match this ISO 15552 footprint, specify a 50mm bore, 290mm stroke, 100mm adjustment, PT ports, SUS304 rod, and Basic/LB/TC mountings. For load-holding without live air, consider an external rod lock or the SAIL series.
Quick checklist
At 0.5MPa operating pressure, this 50mm bore cylinder provides 982N of push force and 825N of pull force. The maximum thrust is 200kgf at 1.0MPa.
The rear adjuster screw acts as a mechanical stop, allowing you to shorten the effective travel from the nominal 290mm down to 190mm. This stopper only sets the end position and does not lock the load without live air pressure.
