This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is SAIJ80X250-100S — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the SAIJ80X250-100S 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 SIJ80X250-100S is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 250mm stroke, G3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the SAIJ80X250-100S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SIJ80X250-100S is a discontinued double-acting single-rod ISO 15552 adjustable-stroke cylinder with a 250 mm nominal stroke. An external stop screw lets you trim the extend stroke by up to 100 mm on-site, yielding a usable 150-250 mm window. The 80 mm bore uses a G3/8 port, M20x1.5 rod thread, and 36 mm adjustable cushions. This unit includes a piston magnet (-S) for legacy CS1-B/DS1-B switches. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAIJ80X250-100S, sharing the same interface, force, and mounting.
Force output is substantial: 2513 N push and 2268 N pull at 0.5 MPa, reaching 4523 N at 0.9 MPa. A computed buyer insight from the 0.5 MPa data suggests a safe working load around 1508 N (60% of push), or a 128 kg vertical lift with a 2:1 margin. The SAIJ upgrade features a two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for lower start-up pressure and longer life. Remember the stop screw sets end position only; it is not a load lock, so use an external rod lock or SAIL/BSAI variant for held loads.

The SAIJ80X250-100S 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).
Needs field stroke tuning to alter part depths without changing tooling, using the 100 mm adjust screw to set precise bottom-dead-center on different material batches.
Requires on-site stroke trims to accommodate changing box widths on a packaging line, retracting the extend stop to prevent damaging varying parcel sizes.
Demands adjustable extend endpoints to interface with different pallet stack heights, using the external stop to safely vary the final push position dynamically.
To replace the discontinued SIJ80X250-100S, order the exact drop-in SAIJ80X250-100S, retaining the 250 mm nominal stroke and 100 mm adjust window. If resizing, the adjacent 63 mm bore yields 2182 N push @0.7 MPa, while the 100 mm bore provides 5497 N push @0.7 MPa. Choose the adjust window based on your maximum required on-site variation. Mounting interfaces (FA, LB, TC) reuse existing ISO 15552 holes. The -S suffix confirms a piston magnet for position sensing. For strokes >=300 mm, verify guide alignment to prevent excessive side-loading on the rod. The SAIJ family also adds SAIF (built-in valve) and BSAI (clamp-lock) variants the SI line lacked.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SIJ80X250-100S is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAIJ80X250-100S. It shares the identical ISO 15552 interface, 80 mm bore, 250 mm stroke, 100 mm adjust window, G3/8 port, and mounting options. The SAIJ uses an upgraded two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for lower start-up pressure and longer life.
The 80 mm bore provides 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, with a theoretical max of 513 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The external stop screw allows you to trim the extend stroke by up to 100 mm on-site, giving a usable extend window of 150-250 mm. The stop sets end position only and is not a load lock; for held loads use an external rod lock or SAIL/BSAI variant.
