The AirTAC Airtac SAUJ80 Adjustable Stroke Cylinder SAUJ80X100-20 is a genuine double-acting profile-type standard air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 100mm stroke, 3/8" air ports and adjustable end cushioning. Its hard-anodized aluminum-profile barrel is shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same bore, and it shares SC-series mounting accessories.
The AirTAC SAUJ80X100-20 is a double-acting single-rod profile cylinder with an on-site extend stroke adjustment window of 20 mm. You can trim the 100 mm nominal stroke down to 80 mm using the external stop screw. It features a 3/8" port, an M20x1.5 rod thread, and 28 mm adjustable air cushions at each end. The extruded aluminum profile barrel makes this unit shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same bore.
This 80 mm bore generates 2513 N push and 2268 N pull force at 0.5 MPa, peaking at a theoretical 513 kgf at 1.0 MPa. For sizing, the safe working load is roughly 1508 N, and it can vertically lift about 128 kg with a 2:1 safety margin. Choose this adjustable model over a fixed SAU cylinder when you need final end-position tuning without buying new hardware. Note this SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG or DMSG sensors.

Inserting bearings where the exact depth needs field tuning. The stop screw adjusts the extend end position to perfect the press fit without changing the cylinder body.
Routing packages of varying sizes on a line. Shorten the actuator stroke by up to 20 mm to alter the diverting arm angle for different carton dimensions.
Acting as a physical end stop for incoming pallets. Fine-tune the gate position on-site to accommodate slight pallet length variations.
When sizing this actuator, look both ways: a 63 mm bore offers 1559 N push at 0.5 MPa, while a 100 mm bore provides 3927 N. The 80 mm bore hits 2513 N, making it ideal for medium-heavy loads. Select the SAUJ over a fixed SAU when your machine build requires slight extend length tweaks to dial in a process. The 20 mm adjust window lets you shorten the stroke on-site. Mounting options include Basic, FA flange, and LB foot, sharing compatibility with the AirTAC SC series. Because this specific SKU has no -S magnet, it cannot support position sensing. For strokes over 300 mm, ensure external guides handle side loads to prevent rod wear. Operating speed spans 30-800 mm/s.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa it provides 2513 N push and 2268 N pull force. Push force increases to 3518 N at 0.7 MPa and 4523 N at 0.9 MPa, with a theoretical max of 513 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The nominal stroke is 100 mm, but the external stop screw lets you shorten the extend stroke by up to 20 mm, giving a usable range of 80-100 mm.
No. A plain cylinder drifts when air is lost or the valve is centered; the 28 mm air cushion only decelerates the piston near the end of travel and the stop screw only sets the end position. Neither acts as a load lock. To hold a load securely, install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
