The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ80 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ80BX550-20 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 550mm 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 SAIJ80X550-20 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster that creates a 530-550 mm usable travel window. Delivering 2513 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, it is built with a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance. The PT tapered port threads ensure a reliable, leak-free pneumatic connection.
This adjustable-stroke design allows you to fine-tune the retract end position during commissioning without adding external stops. The 25 mm rod and M20x1.5 thread provide robust side-load capability, though the 550 mm stroke requires an external guide to prevent rod deflection. It uses a reduced mounting set of Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2.

Dial in the exact retract position within the 530-550 mm window during machine commissioning without swapping cylinders or adding bulky external stopper blocks.
Quickly adapt a packaging line for different carton lengths by turning the rear adjuster, saving setup time and eliminating the need for fixed SAI cylinders.
Leverage the SUS304 stainless steel rod for pushing and pulling tasks in washdown or mildly corrosive manufacturing settings where carbon steel rods would fail.
Choose this 80 mm bore when a 50 mm bore (982 N push at 0.5 MPa) lacks thrust or a 100 mm bore (3927 N) is excessive. The 20 mm rear adjuster is ideal for variable end-stops and product changeovers, unlike a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder. For a 550 mm stroke, an external guide is strongly recommended to manage side loads.
This standard profile cylinder does not hold loads without live air, as the rear adjuster is a travel stop, not a lock. For dead-air load holding, consider an AirTAC SAIL or BSAI cylinder. To match this ISO 15552 replacement, specify: 80 mm bore, 550 mm stroke, 20 mm adjustment, PT port threads, SUS304 rod, and no magnet.
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 acts as a mechanical stop, allowing you to shorten the effective stroke by up to 20 mm. This creates a 530-550 mm travel window for fine-tuning the end position at commissioning. It is a stop, not a lock, and requires live air to hold the load.
