The AirTAC Airtac SAUJ80 Adjustable Stroke Cylinder SAUJ80X120-10 is a genuine double-acting profile-type standard air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 120mm 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 SAUJ80X120-10 is a double-acting, single-rod profile cylinder with an on-site extend stroke trim of up to 10 mm via an external stop screw. You get a usable stroke range of 110-120 mm, letting you dial in the exact end position without buying a new actuator. The extruded aluminum barrel is noticeably shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same bore, saving machine space. It features a 3/8" port, an M20x1.5 rod thread, and 28 mm adjustable air cushions at each end.
This 80 mm bore generates 2513 N of push force and 2268 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, peaking at a theoretical 513 kgf at 1.0 MPa. For sizing, a safe working load is roughly 1508 N (about 60% of the 0.5 MPa push figure), translating to a vertical lift capacity of about 128 kg with a 2:1 safety margin. The unit operates at 30-800 mm/s and accepts basic, FA flange, or LB foot mounts. Note this specific SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG or DMSG sensors.

Related SAU-family variants: SAUD (double rod), SAUJ (adjustable stroke), SAUF (with built-in solenoid valve), and SAU-S with built-in magnet. Seals: TPU (blank) / Viton H / NBR N. Sensor switches: CMSG / DMSG / EMSG.
Dial in the exact 110-120 mm insertion depth for bearing presses on-site using the stop screw, ensuring perfect seating without reordering actuators.
Adjust the extend endpoint by up to 10 mm to accommodate varying package sizes on a conveyor line without changing out the entire cylinder assembly.
Fine-tune the clamping contact point on mixed-height pallets, using the 2513 N push force to secure loads while compensating for minor height variations.
When sizing this actuator, look at both the adjacent bores and the force at 0.5 MPa. The 63 mm bore yields 1559 N push, while the 100 mm bore provides 3927 N; this 80 mm actuator delivers 2513 N, making it ideal for medium-heavy tasks. Choose the SAUJ over a fixed SAU when your assembly requires minor end-position tweaking after installation, saving you the cost of machining external hard stops. The 10 mm adjust window is perfect for fine-tuning clamping or pressing depth. Mount using basic, FA, or LB brackets, which share compatibility with the AirTAC SC series. Because this SKU lacks the -S magnet, you cannot mount magnetic switches; if you need position sensing, select a -S variant. For this 120 mm stroke, side-load is minimal, but for any stroke over 300 mm, always use external guide rails to prevent rod binding.
Quick checklist
This 80 mm bore cylinder provides 2513 N push and 2268 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 3518 N push at 0.7 MPa, 4523 N at 0.9 MPa, and a max of 513 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The nominal 120 mm extend stroke can be shortened by up to 10 mm on-site via the external stop screw, giving a usable range of 110-120 mm. The stop screw sets the end position but is not a load lock.
No to both. A plain cylinder drifts on air loss or when the valve is centered; the 28 mm air cushions only decelerate the piston near stroke end and do not function as a brake. For load holding, install an external rod lock or pilot-operated check valve. Additionally, this specific SKU lacks a magnet, so it cannot accept CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors.
