This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is SAIJ80X250-20S — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the SAIJ80X250-20S 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 SIJ80X250-20S 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 SAIJ80X250-20S, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.
The AirTAC SIJ80X250-20S is a discontinued double-acting single-rod ISO 15552 adjustable-stroke cylinder. An external stop screw lets you trim the extend stroke by up to 20 mm on-site, yielding a usable 230-250 mm stroke. The 80 mm bore features a G3/8 port, M20x1.5 rod thread, and 36 mm adjustable cushions. It delivers 2513 N push and 2268 N pull at 0.5 MPa, reaching 4523 N at 0.9 MPa.
The exact drop-in replacement is the SAIJ80X250-20S, reusing the same ISO 15552 mounting interface and force ratings. The SAIJ upgrade introduces a two Y-shaped one-way piston seal for lower start-up pressure and longer life. Computed buyer insight: safe working load is roughly 1508 N (60% of the 0.5 MPa push), lifting about 128 kg vertically with a 2:1 margin. The stop screw sets end position only; it is not a load lock.

The SAIJ80X250-20S 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).
Dial in the exact 230-250 mm extend position for seating bearings without machining hard stops.
Adjust the extend stroke on-site to accommodate varying package widths on a sorting line.
Fine-tune the end position to handle slight pallet height variances during end-of-line staging.
To replace the discontinued SIJ80X250-20S, order the drop-in SAIJ80X250-20S, which preserves the 250 mm stroke, 20 mm adjust window, and G3/8 port. For sizing both ways: the neighbouring 63 mm bore yields 1559 N push at 0.5 MPa, while the 100 mm bore yields 3927 N. Select the 20 mm adjust window when you need precise 230-250 mm extend tuning. Mounting options include FA, LB, and TC brackets. The -S suffix indicates a built-in piston magnet for CS1-B/DS1-B switches. For stroke lengths of 300 mm or more, verify side-load limits to prevent rod distortion.
Replacement checklist
Yes, the SIJ80X250-20S is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAIJ80X250-20S. It shares the same ISO 15552 interface, 80 mm bore, 250 mm stroke, 20 mm adjust window, and G3/8 port, while adding an upgraded piston seal.
The 80 mm bore provides 2513 N push and 2268 N pull at 0.5 MPa, 3518 N at 0.7 MPa, and 4523 N at 0.9 MPa, with a 513 kgf max at 1.0 MPa. The external stop screw offers a 20 mm adjust window, shortening the extend stroke from 250 mm down to 230 mm. The stop sets end position and is not a load lock.
