About the Airtac SAIJ80 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ80BX550-30
The AirTAC SAIJ80X550-30 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear-mounted stroke adjuster. It provides a 520-550 mm usable travel window, allowing you to dial back the nominal 550 mm stroke by up to 30 mm during commissioning. Delivering 2513 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, it handles substantial loads with precision.
This variant is built with a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance and features PT tapered port threads. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides, ready for CMSE or DMSE switches if a magnet is added later. Note that the rear adjuster acts purely as a mechanical stop and does not hold the load without continuous air pressure.

Where the Airtac SAIJ80 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ80BX550-30 Is Used
Product Changeover
Quickly fine-tune the 520-550 mm travel endpoint on packaging lines when switching to different carton sizes, bypassing the need to physically swap out cylinders.
Machine Setup Calibration
Dial in the exact retract position during initial commissioning, using the 30 mm rear adjustment window to perfect tooling alignment without adding external mechanical stops.
Variable End-Stop Forming
Adapt the stroke endpoint on the fly for automated metal-forming or bending equipment, ensuring precise material positioning across different production runs.
Is the Airtac SAIJ80 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ80BX550-30 the Right Cylinder?
Selecting this 80 mm bore cylinder makes sense when your application requires 2513 N push force at 0.5 MPa but demands exact end-position tuning without external stops. If you need less force, stepping down to a 63 mm bore yields 1559 N; stepping up to a 100 mm bore provides 3927 N. The adjustable 520-550 mm window is perfect for product changeovers, whereas a fixed SAI cylinder locks you into a single 550 mm dimension.
Because the 550 mm stroke is relatively long, the 25 mm rod should be paired with an external guide to prevent excessive side-loading and premature seal wear. For any load-holding requirements without live air pressure, this cylinder is insufficient—the adjuster is a stop, not a lock—so you should explore an AirTAC SAIL or BSAI model instead. Mounting options are limited to Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2.

- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/NPT/G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Side load — consider a guided cylinder
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Adjust end cushion screws for smooth stops.
- check Use correct mounting accessory (FA/FB/CA/CB/LB/TC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
Airtac SAIJ80 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ80BX550-30 FAQ
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 80 mm bore cylinder provides 2513 N of push force and 2268 N of pull force. At a maximum 1.0 MPa, the push force reaches 513 kgf.
The rear adjuster screw allows you to shorten the effective travel from the nominal 550 mm down to as little as 520 mm. This creates a 30 mm tuning window for precise end-positioning at commissioning, but it functions only as a travel stop and does not lock the load without air pressure.
