The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ80 Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ80X280-20S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 280mm 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 SAIJ80X280-20-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster. It provides a usable travel window of 260 to 280 mm, allowing you to dial back the nominal 280 mm stroke by up to 20 mm during commissioning. Delivering 2513 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, it handles robust actuation tasks without requiring external stops.
This model features a carbon steel piston rod and a PT tapered port. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides, and because this is the -S variant, it contains a magnet for CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors. The rear adjuster acts purely as a travel stop and does not hold the load without live air pressure.

Quickly adapt end-stop positions for different product sizes on a single line without physically replacing the actuator.
Dial in the exact 260-280 mm travel window during setup to perfect positioning and avoid mechanical hard hits.
Provide adjustable physical stops for diverter arms or pushers that must handle varying package dimensions.
Select this 80 mm bore when your application requires high thrust (2513 N pull at 0.5 MPa) and precise end-position tuning. If your force requirements are lower, stepping down to a 63 mm bore yields 1402 N of pull force, while moving up to a 100 mm bore provides 3681 N. The adjustable stroke is ideal for product changeovers, enabling variable end-stops without swapping cylinders.
Because the 280 mm stroke is relatively long, ensure adequate support to prevent excessive side-loading on the 25 mm rod. Remember that the rear adjuster only decelerates the travel end; for true load-holding without live air, consider the SAIL or BSAI series. This unit is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552 and uses a reduced mounting set (Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, TCM2).
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 80 mm bore cylinder provides 2513 N of pull force and 3518 N of push force. The maximum thrust is 513 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
The rear adjuster screw lets you shorten the effective travel from the nominal 280 mm down to 260 mm. This creates a 260-280 mm usable window for fine-tuning the retract end position without adding external stops.
