The AirTAC Airtac SAUJ80 Adjustable Stroke Cylinder SAUJ80X240-50S is a genuine double-acting profile-type standard air cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 240mm 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 SAUJ80X240-50S is a double-acting single-rod profile cylinder with an on-site extend stroke adjustment window of 50mm. You can trim the 240mm nominal stroke down to 190mm using the external stop screw. It features a 3/8 inch port, an M20x1.5 piston rod, and 28mm adjustable air cushions. The extruded aluminum profile barrel makes it shorter than an ISO 15552 cylinder of the same bore.
This 80mm bore generates 2513N push and 2268N pull at 0.5MPa, scaling to 4523N at 0.9MPa. A practical computed insight: the safe working load is roughly 1508N (about 60% of the 0.5MPa push figure), and it can vertically lift approximately 128kg with a 2:1 safety margin. The -S suffix means a built-in magnet is present for CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG position sensing.

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.
Allows operators to dial in the exact 190-240mm extend position for inserting bearings without changing hard stops on the machine frame.
Ideal for packaging lines that need to adjust the upper seal head height on the fly to accommodate different carton depths.
Perfect for conveyor sorting gates where the extend reach must be fine-tuned during installation to match varying product widths.
When sizing this unit, look at both neighboring bores and the 0.5MPa force class. The 63mm bore yields 1559N push at 0.5MPa, while the 100mm bore hits 3927N; this 80mm model sits comfortably in the middle at 2513N. Choose the SAUJ over a fixed SAU when your machine assembly requires field tuning of the extend end position without buying multiple cylinders. The 50mm adjust window lets you fine-tune the stroke on-site. Mounting options include Basic, FA flange, and LB foot, with compatibility matching the AirTAC SC series only. The -S magnet allows for electronic or reed sensor tracking. For any stroke over 300mm, ensure you use external guide rails to prevent side-load wear on the rod.
Quick checklist
At 0.5MPa this 80mm bore cylinder provides 2513N push and 2268N pull force. At 0.7MPa it pushes 3518N, and at 0.9MPa it pushes 4523N. The theoretical maximum force is 513kgf at 1.0MPa. The external stop screw allows you to shorten the extend stroke by up to 50mm, giving a usable extend range of 190-240mm from the 240mm nominal maximum.
The -S suffix indicates a built-in piston magnet so you can mount CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors for position detection. Note that a standard cylinder does not hold a load if air pressure is lost; the piston will drift and the 28mm air cushion only decelerates near the end of travel. The external stop screw sets the end position but is not a load lock. For secure load holding, install an external rod lock or a pilot-operated check valve.
