The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ80 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ80AX280-40 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 SAIJ80X280-40 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear-mounted stroke adjuster. It provides a nominal 280 mm stroke that can be fine-tuned down by up to 40 mm, giving you a usable travel window between 240 and 280 mm to perfectly dial in end positions during commissioning. Delivering 2513 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, it is built with an SUS420J2 stainless steel rod for enhanced corrosion resistance and uses PT tapered port threads.
This extruded aluminum profile cylinder includes variable air cushions at both ends to manage deceleration. The rear adjuster acts purely as a mechanical stop to set the travel limit and does not hold the load without live air pressure. It supports standard SAIJ mounting options including Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, deliberately omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR configurations.

Quickly adapt the 240-280 mm travel window for different sized parts on the same conveyor line without changing out the physical cylinder.
Fine-tune the exact end-of-stroke position during initial commissioning to perfect pressing or lifting operations without external shims.
Dial in the rear mechanical stop to accommodate multi-format packaging machines that require precise but flexible stroke limits.
Select this 80 mm bore when an application requires substantial thrust, such as 2513 N push or 2268 N pull at 0.5 MPa, but needs less power than a 100 mm bore that yields 3927 N push. The adjustable 240-280 mm travel window is ideal for product changeovers on a line, allowing you to shift the end-stop without physically swapping the cylinder or adding external stops. For load-holding without continuous air pressure, this cylinder is insufficient; you should explore the SAIL or BSAI series instead.
Because this 280 mm stroke creates a long lever arm, the 25 mm rod diameter and M20x1.5 rod thread provide robust support, but an external guide is still recommended to prevent excessive side-loading. To achieve a true ISO 15552 replacement match, verify the 80 mm bore, 280 mm stroke, 40 mm adjustment, G3/8 port, PT thread type, and your required mounting hardware.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 80 mm bore cylinder provides 2513 N of push force and 2268 N of pull force. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 3518 N.
The rear adjuster screw allows you to shorten the effective travel from the nominal 280 mm down to 240 mm. This mechanical stop sets the end position but does not lock the load without live air pressure.
