This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MAL series. The drop-in replacement is SAIJ80X40-30SN — same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. Simply order the SAIJ80X40-30SN 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.
Airtac SIJ80 Dual Axis Adjustable Cylinder SIJ80X40-30SN
The AirTAC Airtac SIJ80 Dual Axis Adjustable Cylinder SIJ80X40-30SN is a double-acting ISO 15552 (orig. ISO 6431) profile-barrel cylinder with a Ø80mm bore and 40mm stroke, G3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. This model is discontinued — the drop-in replacement is the SAIJ80X40-30SN, which matches its ISO interface, bore, stroke, force and mounting.

About the Airtac SIJ80 Dual Axis Adjustable Cylinder SIJ80X40-30SN
The AirTAC SIJ80X40-30SN is a discontinued double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 adjustable-stroke cylinder with a 40 mm nominal stroke. An external stop screw lets you trim the extend stroke by up to 30 mm on-site, yielding a 10-40 mm usable end position. 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. The drop-in replacement is the SAIJ80X40-30SN, retaining the exact bore, force, adjust window, and mounting interface.
The SAIJ upgrade introduces a two-piece Y-shaped piston seal for lower start-up pressure and longer life. For sizing, the safe working load is roughly 1508 N (60% of the 0.5 MPa push), translating to a 128 kg vertical lift with a 2:1 margin. Note that the external stop sets the end position but is not a load lock; a plain cylinder drifts on air loss, so use an external rod lock or SAIL/BSAI variant for held loads. This -SN unit includes a piston magnet for legacy CS1-B/DS1-B sensors and NBR seals rated for -20 to +70 C.

Theoretical Output Force (Ø80mm)
| Pressure | Push force | Pull force |
|---|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 2513 N | 2268 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 3519 N | — |
| Max (@1.0 MPa) | 513 kgf | |
The SAIJ80X40-30SN 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.

Where the Airtac SIJ80 Dual Axis Adjustable Cylinder SIJ80X40-30SN Is Used
Press Fit Tuning
Allows operators to dial in the exact 10-40 mm extend position for seating bearings without swapping mechanical spacers.
Variable Transfer Stops
Adjusts the extend stop on the fly to accommodate different package widths on a single sorting line.
Prototype Actuation
Provides a 30 mm trim window to test various end-of-stroke positions during fixture development before finalizing a fixed stroke.
Replacing the Airtac SIJ80 Dual Axis Adjustable Cylinder SIJ80X40-30SN with the SAIJ80X40-30SN
To replace the discontinued SIJ80X40-30SN, order the SAIJ80X40-30SN (drop-in, same ISO 15552 mounting interface). When sizing both ways, the neighbouring 63 mm bore yields 1559 N push @0.5 MPa, while the 100 mm bore yields 3927 N push @0.5 MPa. Choose the 30 mm adjust window if your application requires on-site tuning of the extend stroke between 10 and 40 mm. Mounting options include Basic, FA, LB, and TC. The -S suffix confirms a built-in magnet for position sensing, and the -N suffix specifies NBR seals. Because the stroke is under 300 mm, side-load concerns are minimal. Remember, the stop screw defines the end position but does not lock the load; for load-holding without live air, specify an external rod lock or a SAIL/BSAI variant.
Replacement checklist
- ✓ Same ISO 15552 interface → SAIJ80X40-30SN
- ✓ Same bore / stroke / force
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/G/NPT)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Mounting reused (FA/FB/CA/CB/CR/LB/TC)
Airtac SIJ80 Dual Axis Adjustable Cylinder SIJ80X40-30SN FAQ
Yes, the SIJ80X40-30SN is discontinued. The exact drop-in replacement is the SAIJ80X40-30SN, which shares the same ISO 15552 interface, 80 mm bore, 40 mm stroke, 30 mm adjust window, G3/8 port, and mounting options. The SAIJ family also features an upgraded two-piece Y-shaped piston seal.
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. The theoretical max is 513 kgf at 1.0 MPa. The external stop screw provides a 30 mm adjust window, allowing you to shorten the 40 mm nominal extend stroke down to 10 mm on-site. The stop sets end position and is not a load lock.
