The AirTAC SAIJ80 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ80AX280-40S 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 interchangeable with other ISO 15552 cylinders at the mounting interface.
The AirTAC SAIJ80X280-40-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster that creates a 240 to 280 mm usable travel window. Equipped with a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod and a -S magnet, it supports position sensing via AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic solid-state switches in the dual-side sensor grooves.
The 40 mm adjustment range allows you to dial back the end-of-stroke position at commissioning without swapping out the cylinder or adding external stops. The rear adjuster acts purely as a travel stop and works alongside the 36 mm air cushions at both ends to decelerate the load. It does not hold the load without live air pressure; for dead-end holding, consider an external rod lock or the AirTAC SAIL series.

Double-rod model: the rod passes through the rear cover, so both piston faces lose rod area and push is shown at the annular-area value. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical due to friction and back-pressure. Size with a safety margin.

Dial in the exact retract distance within the 240-280 mm window during machine commissioning without physically changing the cylinder mounting.
Quickly adapt the stroke end-position on a packaging line when switching between different box or part sizes, saving setup time.
The 280 mm stroke with a 40 mm adjuster is ideal for machine setups requiring variable end-stops during product changeovers. When ordering an ISO 15552 replacement, match the 80 mm bore, 280 mm stroke, 40 mm adjustment, PT tapered ports, and the -S magnet option. The SAIJ mounting set includes Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, omitting the FB, CA, CB, and CR variants.
Because the 280 mm stroke is substantial, the 25 mm rod diameter and M20x1.5 thread provide rigidity, but an external guide rail is still recommended for long unsupported loads to prevent side-loading damage. Operating speed ranges from 30 to 800 mm/s.
Quick checklist
At 0.9 MPa, the push force increases to 4523 N.
The rear adjusting screw acts as a mechanical stop, allowing you to shorten the effective stroke by up to 40 mm from the 280 mm nominal length, creating a 240-280 mm travel window. It does not lock the load without live air pressure.
