The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ80 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ80BX500-50S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 500mm 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 SAIJ80X500-50-S is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster. It features a 500 mm nominal stroke that can be dialed back by up to 50 mm, providing a precise 450-500 mm usable travel window for commissioning. Delivering 3518 N of push force at 0.7 MPa, it is built with a SUS304 stainless steel rod and includes a magnet for CMSE or DMSE sensors.
This adjustable model uses an external stopper screw at the rear to fine-tune the retract end position without swapping the cylinder or adding external stops. The rear adjuster acts purely as a travel stop and does not hold the load without live air pressure; for load-holding requirements, consider the SAIL or BSAI series. It supports a reduced mounting set of Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR.

Dial in the exact 450-500 mm retract position during machine commissioning to accommodate varying product lengths without mechanical redesign.
Quickly adjust the stroke by up to 50 mm when switching product sizes on a conveyor, using the rear stopper to set new end positions rapidly.
Utilize the 3518 N push force at 0.7 MPa for long-travel assembly tasks, relying on the adjustable stop to fine-tune the final pressing distance.
Choose this 80 mm bore when the 50 mm bore's 1374 N at 0.5 MPa is insufficient, but the 100 mm bore's 5497 N at 0.7 MPa is excessive. The adjustable stroke is ideal for machine setups requiring a variable end-stop or product changeover, offering flexibility a fixed SAI cylinder cannot. With a 500 mm stroke, the 25 mm rod diameter and M20x1.5 thread provide robust support, but the long unsupported travel requires an external guide to prevent side-loading damage.
For a true ISO 15552 replacement match, verify the 80 mm bore, 500 mm stroke, 50 mm adjustment, PT tapered port, and the -S magnet for CMSE/DMSE switches. The standard variable air cushions at both ends help decelerate the load, but remember they do not function as a lock.
Quick checklist
It delivers 2513 N push and 2268 N pull force at 0.5 MPa, and 3518 N push at 0.7 MPa. The operating speed range is 30-800 mm/s.
The rear adjuster screw acts as a mechanical stop that lets you shorten the effective travel from 500 mm down to 450 mm. It is a stop, not a lock, so it will not hold the load without live air pressure.
