This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is SAIJ80X250-100TC — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the SAIJ80X250-100TC 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 SIJ80X250-100TC 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 SAIJ80X250-100TC, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SIJ80X250-100TC is a discontinued double-acting single-rod ISO 15552 adjustable-stroke cylinder with a 250 mm nominal stroke and a G3/8 port. An external stop screw lets you trim the extend stroke by up to 100 mm on-site, giving a usable extend window of 150-250 mm. The stop sets the end position; it is not a load lock. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAIJ80X250-100TC, retaining the same interface, 25 mm rod, M20x1.5 thread, and 36 mm adjustable cushions.
At 0.5 MPa this 80 mm bore delivers 2513 N push and 2268 N pull (3518 N push at 0.7 MPa; 4523 N at 0.9 MPa; max 513 kgf). Computed buyer insight: 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 a two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for low start-up pressure, and the SAI family adds lock variants (SAIL/BSAI) the SI line lacked. This non-magnet SKU cannot take a switch.

The SAIJ80X250-100TC 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 set precise material deformation depth on-site without swapping cylinders, trimming the extend stroke within the 150-250 mm window.
Requires altering the extend reach on the fly to handle varying carton widths on the line, using the 100 mm stop screw to prevent over-travel.
Uses the external stop to tune the exact physical barrier position for different pallet sizes entering a staging zone, setting the end position without re-plumbing.
To replace the discontinued SIJ80X250-100TC, order the drop-in SAIJ80X250-100TC; the TC mounting interface and ISO 15552 dimensions are identical. Size both ways by force at 0.5 MPa: the 63 mm bore gives 1559 N push, while the 100 mm bore gives 3927 N push. Choose the 100 mm adjust window if you need to trim the full 150-250 mm extend range. The external stop screw sets end position but is not a lock; for load holding on air loss, use an external rod lock, pilot-operated check valve, or the SAIL/BSAI lock variant. This non-magnet SKU cannot take a magnetic switch (no -S suffix). For strokes >=300 mm, verify side-load guidance to prevent rod binding.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SIJ80X250-100TC is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAIJ80X250-100TC. It shares the same ISO 15552 interface, 80 mm bore, 250 mm nominal stroke, 100 mm adjust window, G3/8 port, and TC mounting.
The double-acting single-rod 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 (max 513 kgf). The external stop screw window is 100 mm, allowing you to trim the extend stroke from the 250 mm maximum down to 150 mm on-site. The stop sets end position and is not a load lock.
