The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ80 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ80AX280-100 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 280mm 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 SAIJ80X280-100 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster that allows you to trim the effective travel. With a nominal 280 mm stroke and a 100 mm adjustment range, it provides a usable travel window of 180 to 280 mm. This enables precise end-position tuning at commissioning without adding external stops. The 80 mm bore delivers 2513 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, scaling up to 4523 N at 0.9 MPa.
This unit uses a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod (option A) for improved corrosion resistance and features PT tapered port threads. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides for flexible switch placement. It supports AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors, though this specific SKU is configured without a magnet. The rear adjuster acts strictly as a travel stop for deceleration and does not hold the load without live air pressure.

Dial in the exact end-stop position on the fly when switching a packaging line to a different carton size, utilizing the full 100 mm adjustment window.
Fine-tune the retract position during commissioning to perfect a press fit without physically swapping the cylinder or machining external stop blocks.
Adjust the stroke on a diverter arm to route products of varying widths down a conveyor belt accurately.
Choose this 80 mm bore when an application requires substantial thrust—stepping down to a 63 mm bore reduces push force to 1559 N at 0.5 MPa, while stepping up to a 100 mm bore yields 3927 N. An adjustable stroke is selected over a fixed SAI cylinder when machine setups require variable end-stops or frequent product-size changeovers. For load-holding without continuous air pressure, this cylinder is insufficient; the rear stop is not a brake, so consider an AirTAC SAIL or BSAI series instead.
This configuration includes a 280 mm stroke, 100 mm adjustment, PT port, and no magnet. It is dimensionally interchangeable with ISO 15552 cylinders. Available mountings are limited to Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2. Because the stroke is 280 mm, the 25 mm rod should be guided externally on long unsupported spans to prevent side-load damage.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa, the 80 mm bore 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 screw lets you shorten the 280 mm nominal stroke by up to 100 mm, creating a usable travel window of 180 to 280 mm. It functions as a physical stop to set the end position and does not lock the load.
