The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ80 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ80X260-30 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 260mm 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 SAIJ80X260-30 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster that permits you to trim the nominal 260 mm travel back by up to 30 mm. This creates a 230-260 mm usable end-position window, allowing you to fine-tune the retract distance at commissioning without bolting on external stops. It features a carbon steel piston rod and PT tapered port threads.
Belonging to the 80 mm bore class, it delivers a robust 4523 N of push force at 0.9 MPa and 2268 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides for easy switch mounting, while the variable air cushions at both ends absorb kinetic energy. The rear adjuster acts purely as a travel stop and does not lock the load without live air pressure.

Dial in the exact retract distance from 230 to 260 mm during machine commissioning to perfect product seating without physically swapping out the cylinder.
Quickly adapt the stroke length on packaging lines when switching to different carton sizes, using the 30 mm adjustment range to accommodate new format requirements.
Leverage the 4523 N push force at 0.9 MPa for pressing operations, using the rear stopper to fine-tune the final pressing depth safely and accurately.
Selecting this 80 mm bore model makes sense when your application requires the 2513 N push force available at 0.5 MPa, bridging the gap below the 100 mm bore class. You would choose this adjustable-stroke version over a fixed SAI cylinder when a machine requires variable end-stops to handle product-size changeovers on the fly. To drop in a replacement, match the 260 mm stroke, 30 mm adjustment, PT port threads, and the reduced SAIJ mounting set (Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, TCM2), which omits FB, CA, CB, and CR.
Because the 260 mm stroke is substantial, the 25 mm rod diameter and M20x1.5 rod thread provide stiffness, but an external guide is still recommended to manage side loads over the extended travel. Remember that the rear adjuster is a stop, not a brake; for true fail-safe load holding without live air, look to the SAIL or BSAI series instead.
Quick checklist
It features a rear adjusting screw that acts as a mechanical stopper, allowing you to shorten the 260 mm nominal stroke by up to 30 mm. This provides a usable travel window of 230 to 260 mm for fine-tuning the end position.
At an operating pressure of 0.9 MPa, the SAIJ80X260-30 generates 4523 N of push force and 4055 N of pull force. At 0.5 MPa, it provides 2513 N of push force.
