The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ50 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ50X185-50 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø50mm bore and 185mm 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 SAIJ50X185-50 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster. It delivers 982N of push thrust and 825N of pull thrust at 0.5 MPa. By turning the rear stopper screw, you can dial back the nominal 185mm travel by up to 50mm, creating a precise 135-185mm usable stroke window without swapping out the barrel.
This 50mm bore unit features a 20mm carbon steel rod and M16x1.5 rod threading, offering solid resistance to side loads. It uses PT tapered port threads (G1/4) and includes variable air cushions at both ends to decelerate the moving piston. The extruded aluminum barrel omits tie-rods and carries sensor grooves on both sides for flexible switch mounting.

Quickly reposition the retract end-stop by up to 50mm to accommodate varying package lengths on a packaging line without changing the cylinder.
Dial in the exact 135-185mm travel distance during machine commissioning to perfect mating alignment without adding external shims.
Set a precise stroke limit for a conveyor sorting arm, allowing the retract position to be fine-tuned to the exact product width.
Choose this 50mm adjustable model when your machine setup requires fine-tuning the retract end-position during commissioning or accommodating product-size changes on a line. If your application needs less force, stepping down to a 40mm bore yields 628N push at 0.5 MPa; stepping up to a 63mm bore provides 1559N. The rear adjuster acts purely as a travel stop and cannot hold a load without live air pressure—use an AirTAC SAIL or BSAI cylinder for fail-safe load holding.
To match this ISO 15552 cylinder for a direct replacement, specify the 50mm bore, 185mm stroke, 50mm adjustment range, PT port threads, and your preferred mounting accessory from the SAIJ subset (Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, TCM2). Because this specific SKU lacks the -S magnet suffix, it will not trigger position switches without physical modification.
Quick checklist
A rear stopper screw lets you shorten the nominal 185mm stroke by up to 50mm. This provides an adjustable travel window of 135 to 185mm so you can set the exact retract end-position at commissioning.
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, it provides 982N of push force and 825N of pull force. At the maximum 1.0 MPa pressure, it can deliver up to 200 kgf.
