The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ80 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ80AX280-20 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 SAIJ80X280-20 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster that creates a 260-280 mm usable travel window. Delivering 2513 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, it handles robust actuation while allowing fine end-position tuning at commissioning without swapping out the unit.
This variant uses a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod for enhanced durability against moisture and features PT tapered port threads. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides, though this specific configuration omits the internal magnet, meaning electronic DMSE or reed CMSE position switches cannot be used without a model change.

Dial in the exact retract distance within the 260-280 mm window during product size changes without physically replacing the cylinder or adding external stopper blocks.
Fine-tune the end-of-stroke position on a conveyor divert arm to compensate for mechanical wear over time, using the rear screw rather than relocating hard mounts.
Apply up to 2513 N of pull force for pressing operations while precisely setting the final lower position via the 20 mm adjustment range at commissioning.
Choose this 80 mm bore when a 50 mm bore's 825 N pull at 0.5 MPa is insufficient but you want to avoid stepping up to a 100 mm frame. The 20 mm rear adjuster acts purely as a travel stop to dial in the exact retract position during product changeover; it does not hold the load without live air pressure. For load-holding requirements, select the SAIL or BSAI series instead.
As a dimensionally interchangeable ISO 15552 cylinder, it matches standard mounting footprints but restricts the mounting set to Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR brackets. Because the 280 mm stroke is relatively long, ensure you provide an external guide to support the 25 mm rod and prevent excessive side-loading on the barrel.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 80 mm bore cylinder provides 2513 N of pull force and 3518 N of push force. It can deliver up to 4523 N of push force at the maximum 1.0 MPa pressure.
The rear adjuster screw allows you to shorten the 280 mm nominal stroke by up to 20 mm, creating a 260-280 mm usable travel window. This stopper only sets the end position and does not lock the load without continuous air pressure.
