The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ63 Adjustable Stroke Air Cylinder SAIJ63AX145-50 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 145mm stroke, G3/8 air ports and adjustable end cushioning. Its standardized mounting interface makes it a drop-in replacement for other ISO 15552 cylinders in automation lines.
The AirTAC SAIJ63X145-50 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster that allows you to trim the effective travel back by up to 50 mm. This creates a precise 95-145 mm usable stroke window, letting you dial in the retract end-position at commissioning without swapping out the physical cylinder. It delivers 1559 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa and uses a G3/8 port for optimal flow.
This variant is built with an SUS420J2 stainless steel rod (material code A) for enhanced corrosion resistance compared to standard carbon steel. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides, though this specific SKU is configured without a magnet. You can fine-tune the end-stop using the rear screw, but remember it acts purely as a travel stop and does not hold the load without live air pressure.

Quickly reconfigure the 95-145 mm travel window during product size changes on a packaging line without replacing the cylinder.
Fine-tune the retract stop during commissioning to achieve exact seating forces without adding bulky external stopper hardware.
Adapt clamping or ejection depths on the fly for flexible manufacturing cells using the 50 mm rear adjustment screw.
Choose this 63 mm bore when your application requires the 1559 N pull force (at 0.5 MPa) of a mid-size cylinder but demands variable end-stops for product changeovers. If you need less force, stepping down to a 50 mm bore yields 825 N of pull force, while stepping up to an 80 mm bore provides 2268 N. The adjustable rear stopper is ideal for tuning a 95-145 mm travel window on the fly, avoiding the need to bolt on external stops or purchase multiple fixed-stroke SAI cylinders.
When integrating this ISO 15552 interchangeable cylinder, note the PT tapered port thread and the SUS420J2 rod material. Because the nominal stroke is 145 mm, side-load stress is manageable, but always ensure external guiding for heavy loads. The SAIJ mounting set includes Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2 options, deliberately omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR brackets. For applications requiring true load-holding without continuous air pressure, consider an AirTAC SAIL or BSAI cylinder instead.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 63 mm bore cylinder provides 1559 N of pull force and 1559 N of push force. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 2182 N.
The rear adjuster screw lets you shorten the 145 mm nominal stroke by up to 50 mm, providing a usable travel window of 95 to 145 mm. It acts as a mechanical stop to set the end position and is not a locking device.
