The AirTAC SAIJ80 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ80BX280-30 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 SAIJ80X280-30 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster that lets you fine-tune the travel window from 250 to 280 mm without adding external stops. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides for flexible mounting of CMSE reed or DMSE solid-state switches, though this specific SKU is supplied without a magnet.
This model features a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance and uses a PT tapered port thread. The 25 mm rod and M20x1.5 thread provide excellent rigidity, but with a 280 mm stroke, maintaining alignment is critical to prevent excessive side-loading. The rear adjuster acts purely as a mechanical stop to set the end position and relies on the variable air cushions at both ends for deceleration; it does not lock or hold the load without live air pressure.

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 250 to 280 mm travel distance during commissioning to accommodate varying material thicknesses without swapping out the entire cylinder.
Quickly readjust the retract end-position on a packaging line when switching to a different carton size, using the rear screw to fine-tune the stroke on the fly.
Eliminate mechanical hard stops and simplify assembly by using the built-in stroke adjustment to perfectly time the cylinder's endpoint with the machine cycle.
The 30 mm adjustment range is ideal for machine setups requiring variable end-stops or product changeovers, offering a clear advantage over a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder. Because the stroke reaches 280 mm, you should use an external guide to support the load and prevent side-loading damage. For any ISO 15552 replacement, match the 80 mm bore, 280 mm stroke, 30 mm adjust, PT G3/8 port, and your required mounting accessory from the SAIJ subset (Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, TCM2). If your application requires position holding without continuous air pressure, consider the SAIL or BSAI series instead, as the SAIJ adjuster is not a lock.
Quick checklist
At the maximum 1.0 MPa pressure, it can deliver up to 513 kgf.
The rear adjuster screw allows you to shorten the nominal 280 mm stroke by up to 30 mm, creating a usable travel window between 250 and 280 mm. The adjuster acts as a mechanical stop and does not function as a lock or brake to hold the load without continuous air pressure.
