The AirTAC SAIJ80 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ80BX185-20S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 185mm 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 SAIJ80X185-20-S is a double-acting, adjustable-stroke ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a robust SUS304 stainless steel rod and a magnetic piston for position sensing. The rear adjuster screw provides a usable travel window of 165-185mm, allowing you to dial in the exact end-of-stroke position without adding external stops.
This rear adjuster functions strictly as a travel stop to set the retract end-position, not as a load-holding lock; it cannot hold a load without live air pressure. For position holding without continuous air, consider the SAIL or BSAI series. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides, seamlessly accommodating CMSE reed and DMSE electronic switches.

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.

Fine-tune the 165-185mm retract stop instantly when switching between product sizes on a packaging line, eliminating the need to physically swap cylinders.
Dial in the exact clamping or pressing depth during initial commissioning using the rear adjuster, ensuring precise force delivery without external shims.
Adjust the effective travel window on the fly for automated assembly equipment that processes parts with slightly varying dimensional tolerances.
The adjustable 165-185mm travel is ideal for machine setups requiring fine end-position tuning during commissioning or product changeovers, offering more flexibility than a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder.
Because the 185mm stroke is below the 300mm threshold, side-load stress is moderate, but the 25mm rod diameter and M20x1.5 thread provide excellent rigidity. If your load geometry introduces severe lateral forces, an external guide is still recommended. The SAIJ mounting set includes Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2 (omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR). To replace an ISO 15552 cylinder, match the 80mm bore, 185mm stroke, 20mm adjustment, PT G3/8 port, and -S magnet.
Quick checklist
It operates at speeds between 30-800 mm/s.
The rear adjuster screw allows you to shorten the 185mm nominal stroke by up to 20mm, creating a usable travel window of 165-185mm. It acts as a physical stop to fine-tune the retract position and does not lock the load without live air.
