The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ80 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ80AX250-50S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 250mm stroke, G3/8 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 SAIJ80X250-50-S is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear-mounted stroke adjuster. It delivers a robust 4523N of push force at 0.9 MPa, making it well-suited for heavy-duty positioning tasks. The integrated -S magnet enables precise end-of-stroke detection using AirTAC CMSE reed or DMSE electronic solid-state sensors housed within the dual-side barrel grooves.
With a 250mm nominal stroke and a 50mm adjustment range, this SKU provides a usable travel window of 200-250mm. This allows operators to fine-tune the retract end-position during commissioning or product changeovers without swapping the cylinder. The piston rod is constructed from SUS420J2 stainless steel (code A) for enhanced corrosion resistance, and the PT tapered port threads ensure a reliable, leak-free pneumatic connection.

Choose this 80mm bore when an application requires substantial thrust, such as the 4523N push force at 0.9 MPa, stepping up from a 63mm bore that provides 2805N. The 50mm rear adjuster acts purely as a mechanical stop to set the 200-250mm travel window; it does not hold the load without live air. For load-holding requirements without continuous pneumatic pressure, consider an AirTAC SAIL pneumatic lock, a BSAI clamp-lock cylinder, or an external rod lock. Because the 250mm stroke is substantial, an external guide should be used to support the load and mitigate side-loading on the rod.
To replace this cylinder with a standard ISO 15552 unit, match the 80mm bore, 250mm stroke, PT port threads, SUS420J2 rod material, and the -S magnet option. The SAIJ mounting hardware is limited to Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2 brackets, deliberately omitting the FB, CA, CB, and CR styles found on some other profiles.
Quick checklist
At 0.9 MPa operating pressure, the 80mm bore produces a push force of 4523N and a pull force of 3681N. The maximum thrust at 1.0 MPa is 513 kgf.
The rear adjuster screw allows you to shorten the effective travel from the 250mm nominal stroke by up to 50mm, creating a 200-250mm usable window. The adjuster serves as a travel stop and does not lock the load without live air pressure.
