The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ50 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ50BX425-50S 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 SAIJ50X425-50-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster that creates a 375-425 mm usable travel window from its 425 mm nominal stroke. It delivers 982 N of push force and 825 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, making it a robust choice for mid-range actuation. The barrel is extruded aluminum with sensor grooves on both sides, and this variant includes a magnet for position feedback.
This specific SKU is configured with a SUS304 stainless steel rod (option B) for superior corrosion resistance and PT tapered port threads. Because the stroke extends past 300 mm, the 20 mm piston rod and M16x1.5 rod thread will experience higher bending moments under side loads, so an external guide rail is recommended to prevent premature wear.

Dial in the retract distance up to 50 mm during format changes on packaging lines without swapping out the entire actuator.
Fine-tune the final resting position during machine commissioning to achieve exact alignment without external mechanical stops.
Adjust the stroke window on the fly to handle different product sizes moving down a conveyor without reprogramming the motion controller.
Choose this adjustable model over a fixed SAI when you need to fine-tune the retract position at commissioning or during a product changeover without adding external stops. If you need less force, stepping down to a 40 mm bore yields 628 N of push at 0.5 MPa; if your application requires more clamping power, a 63 mm bore provides 1559 N. The rear adjuster on this cylinder acts only as a travel stop and does not hold the load without live air pressure. For load-holding requirements without continuous air, consider the SAIL or BSAI series. To match this ISO 15552 footprint exactly, specify a 50 mm bore, 425 mm stroke, PT ports, Basic/FA/LB/TC/FTC/TCM1/TCM2 mountings, and the -S magnet option.
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 allows you to shorten the effective travel by up to 50 mm, creating a 375-425 mm usable stroke window. It functions as a mechanical stop and does not lock the load in place without continuous air pressure.
