The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ50 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ50BX425-100S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 425mm 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 SAIJ50X425-100-S is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster. It delivers a robust 982N push force at 0.5 MPa and features a 425mm nominal stroke that can be fine-tuned down by up to 100mm, creating a precise 325-425mm usable travel window. This adjustability allows you to dial in the retract end-position at commissioning without swapping out the cylinder.
This specific SKU is built with a SUS304 stainless steel rod (code B) for superior corrosion resistance and includes a magnet (-S) for direct compatibility with AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors. As an extruded aluminum profile cylinder, it integrates sensor grooves on both sides and utilizes PT tapered port threads (G1/4). It supports a standard mounting set including Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2.

Quickly adapt machinery for varying package sizes by dialing the retract stroke back anywhere within the 325-425mm window during line changeovers.
Fine-tune the final retract position at machine commissioning to achieve exact alignment without fabricating custom external stopper blocks.
Drive variable-length diversion gates on material handling conveyors, relying on the 982N thrust class and precise stroke limits.
Choose this 50mm bore when you need 982N of push force (825N pull) at 0.5 MPa, stepping up from a 40mm bore that provides 628N, or down from a 63mm bore yielding 1559N. The 100mm adjustment range is ideal for product-size changeovers on a line, letting you set a new variable end-stop without adding external stops. Because the nominal stroke is 425mm, an external guide is recommended to manage side-load on the extended rod.
For a direct ISO 15552 replacement match, ensure you specify the 50mm bore, 425mm stroke, 100mm adjustment, PT port thread, the desired mounting style, and the -S magnet. Note that the rear adjuster acts strictly as a travel stop and does not hold the load without live air; for true load-holding without pressure, consider an AirTAC SAIL or BSAI cylinder.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 50mm bore cylinder provides 982N of push force and 825N of pull force. At the maximum 1.0 MPa pressure, it can deliver up to 200 kgf.
The rear adjuster screw allows you to shorten the effective stroke by up to 100mm from the 425mm nominal length, providing a usable travel window of 325-425mm. It functions as a mechanical stop to set the end position and is not a locking device.
