This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is SAIJ80X225-40S — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the SAIJ80X225-40S in place of this model. The SAI replacement keeps the same ISO 15552 mounting interface, bore, stroke, output force and accessories, so it drops straight into existing fixtures. It is the current-production version of this cylinder with an upgraded piston seal.

The AirTAC Airtac SIJ80 Dual Axis Adjustable Cylinder SIJ80X225-40S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 225mm stroke, G3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the SAIJ80X225-40S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SIJ80X225-40S is a discontinued double-acting single-rod ISO 15552 adjustable-stroke cylinder with a 225 mm nominal stroke and a 40 mm external stop screw window, allowing you to trim the extend stroke on-site down to 185 mm. It features an 80 mm bore, a G3/8 port, and delivers 2513 N push / 2268 N pull force at 0.5 MPa. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAIJ80X225-40S, matching the interface, force, and mounting.
The stop screw sets the end position but is not a load lock; without live air the piston drifts. For sizing, a safe working load is roughly 1508 N (60% of the 0.5 MPa push), yielding a 128 kg vertical lift with a 2:1 margin. The SAIJ upgrade uses an improved two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for lower start-up pressure, and the SAI family adds lock variants (SAIL, BSAI) the SI line lacked. This -S model includes a piston magnet for legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches.

The SAIJ80X225-40S produces the same force from the same bore — a true drop-in on output. Actual usable force is lower than theoretical; size with a margin.

Legacy SI-family variants: SID (double rod), SIJ (adjustable stroke) — each maps to its SAI equivalent (SID→SAID, SIJ→SAIJ). Rod material: carbon steel (blank) / SUS420J2 (A) / SUS304 (B).
Dialing in the exact 185-225 mm extend position on-site allows a press to accommodate varying material thicknesses without re-engineering the fixed tooling height.
A pneumatic diverter can fine-tune its reach by up to 40 mm to handle different package widths on the fly, ensuring positive contact without overtravel.
Reject pusher mechanisms benefit from field-tuned endpoints, letting operators shorten the stroke to match specific lane gaps without swapping the cylinder.
To replace the discontinued SIJ80X225-40S, use the drop-in SAIJ80X225-40S, reusing your FA, LB, or TC ISO 15552 mounts. Size both ways: the 63 mm neighbor yields 1559 N push at 0.5 MPa, while the 100 mm bore provides 3927 N. The 40 mm adjust window lets you set the extend stroke precisely between 185 and 225 mm on-site. Because this is a -S model, it retains the piston magnet for position sensing. For strokes of 300 mm or longer, verify side-load limits to prevent rod binding. Remember the stop screw sets position only; for load holding on air loss, use an external rod lock or check valve.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SIJ80X225-40S is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAIJ80X225-40S, offering the same ISO 15552 interface, 80 mm bore, 225 mm stroke, 40 mm adjust window, and G3/8 port.
It delivers 2513 N push and 2268 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 3518 N push at 0.7 MPa, and 4523 N push at 0.9 MPa. The theoretical max is 513 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The external stop screw provides a 40 mm adjust window, shortening the extend stroke from 225 mm down to 185 mm. The stop sets position only and does not hold the load on air loss.
