The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ50 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ50BX50-20S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 50mm 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 SAIJ50X50-20-S is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear-mounted stroke adjuster. It delivers 982N of push force at 0.5MPa, with a nominal 50mm stroke that can be fine-tuned down by up to 20mm. This yields a usable travel window of 30-50mm, allowing precise end-position calibration during commissioning without swapping hardware.
Equipped with a SUS304 stainless steel rod and a PT tapered port, this unit includes a magnet (-S) for CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors. The extruded aluminum barrel provides sensor grooves on both sides. Mounting options include Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, deliberately omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR.

Dial in the 30-50mm travel window during format size changes on a packaging line without adding external stops.
Fine-tune the exact retracted position of a clamping fixture at commissioning using the rear adjustment screw.
Accommodate multiple part lengths on a single machining station by adjusting the stroke back by up to 20mm.
Select this 50mm bore when an application requires moderate thrust and variable end-stops; if you need less force, the 40mm bore offers 628N at 0.5MPa. The adjustable stroke is ideal for product changeovers, but note the rear screw is a travel stop, not a lock. For load-holding without live air, use a SAIL or BSAI cylinder. To match this ISO 15552 replacement exactly, specify: 50mm bore, 50mm stroke, 20mm adjustment, PT port, and the -S magnet.
The 16mm rod and M16x1.5 thread handle side loads well, but always support long unsupported strokes with an external guide. The variable air cushions at both ends decelerate the load, while the adjuster sets the final resting position.
Quick checklist
At 0.5MPa operating pressure, this 50mm bore cylinder provides 982N of push force and 825N of pull force. At 0.7MPa, the push force increases to 1374N.
The rear adjuster acts as a mechanical stop, allowing you to shorten the 50mm nominal stroke by up to 20mm. This creates a 30-50mm usable travel window for fine-tuning the end position without replacing the cylinder.
