The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ80 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ80AX270-20 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 270mm 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 SAIJ80X270-20 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster that allows you to fine-tune the end position without swapping components. Based on a 270 mm nominal stroke, the external stopper provides a usable travel window of 250-270 mm, letting you dial in the exact retract distance during commissioning. It delivers 2513 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and 4523 N at 0.9 MPa.
This unit is built with an SUS420J2 stainless steel rod for improved corrosion resistance and uses a PT tapered G3/8 port. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides for flexible switch mounting. Remember that the rear adjuster functions strictly as a travel stop to set deceleration, not as a lock to hold the load without live air pressure.

Quickly adjust the retract end-stop by up to 20 mm when switching between product sizes on a packaging line, avoiding physical cylinder swaps.
Fine-tune the final resting position of a tooling head during commissioning to achieve exact alignment without adding external mechanical stops.
Leverage the 2513 N push force at 0.5 MPa for pressing operations, using the adjustable stop to set precise contact depth limits.
Choose this 80 mm bore when an application requires higher thrust than a 63 mm cylinder (which provides 1559 N push at 0.5 MPa), but does not need the full 3927 N output of a 100 mm unit. The adjustable stroke is ideal for machine setups requiring variable end stops or product-size changeovers, avoiding the need to maintain multiple fixed-stroke SAI cylinders. To match this ISO 15552 replacement exactly, specify the 80 mm bore, 270 mm stroke, 20 mm adjustment, PT G3/8 port, SUS420J2 rod, and no magnet.
Because the 270 mm stroke creates a longer unsupported rod extension, an external guide should be used to prevent excessive side-loading and premature seal wear. If the machine requires true load-holding without continuous air pressure, a standard SAIJ is insufficient; consider an AirTAC SAIL pneumatic lock or BSAI clamp-lock cylinder instead. Mounting options include Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, this 80 mm bore cylinder provides 2513 N of push force and 2268 N of pull force. At 0.9 MPa, the push force increases to 4523 N.
The rear adjuster acts as a mechanical stop, allowing you to shorten the effective travel from the 270 mm nominal stroke down to 250 mm, creating a 250-270 mm usable window. It sets the travel end but does not lock the load without live air.
