The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ80 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ80X160-30 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 160mm 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 SAIJ80X160-30 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, delivering 2513N of push force at 0.5 MPa. By integrating an external adjusting screw, this actuator allows you to fine-tune the effective travel down from the 160mm nominal stroke, providing a usable adjustment window of 130-160mm. This eliminates the need to swap cylinders or bolt on external stops during machine commissioning.
This model features a robust 25mm carbon steel piston rod with an M20x1.5 thread, designed to handle demanding operational loads. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides, allowing for direct mounting of CMSE or DMSE switches if a magnet is specified later. It utilizes a PT tapered port thread and relies on adjustable air cushions at both ends to decelerate the load smoothly.

Dial in the 130-160mm travel window during product size transitions to set new end stops without replacing the entire actuator.
Provide adjustable physical endpoints for diverter arms or pusher plates on a packaging line, allowing rapid format adjustments.
Trim the rear stroke by up to 30mm during initial machine setup to perfect the mechanical timing without adding external stopper blocks.
Selecting this 80mm bore actuator makes sense when your application requires substantial thrust but variable end-positioning, such as accommodating product size changes on a line. If you need less force, stepping down to a 63mm bore yields 1559N of push force at 0.5 MPa. For higher force requirements, moving up to a 100mm bore provides 3927N.
Because the nominal stroke is 160mm, the unsupported rod length is manageable, but you should always verify side-load conditions against the 25mm rod diameter. Remember that the rear adjuster acts purely as a travel stop and the air cushions manage deceleration; neither will hold a load without live air pressure. For true load-holding, consider an external rod lock or explore the SAIL or BSAI series. To ensure exact ISO 15552 replacement interchangeability, match the 80mm bore, 160mm stroke, PT port thread, and the reduced SAIJ mounting set (Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, TCM2).
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 80mm bore cylinder provides 2513N of push force and 2268N of pull force. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 3518N.
The rear adjusting screw acts as a mechanical stopper, allowing you to shorten the effective stroke from the 160mm nominal length down to 130mm. It sets the travel end and works with the air cushions for deceleration, but it does not lock the load without continuous air pressure.
