The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ63 Adjustable Stroke Air Cylinder SAIJ63AX145-50S 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-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, allowing you to dial back the 145 mm nominal travel by up to 50 mm. This creates a precise 95-145 mm usable positioning window, perfect for accommodating product size changeovers without swapping hardware. It delivers 1559 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa and features a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod for enhanced corrosion resistance.
Fitted with a magnetic piston (-S), this unit supports AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors housed within the dual-side extruded aluminum barrel grooves. The rear adjuster acts strictly as a travel stop to fine-tune the retract end position, so live air must be maintained to hold the load. It uses a PT G3/8 port and includes adjustable air cushions at both ends to decelerate moving masses smoothly.

Quickly reconfigure the 95-145 mm travel window on packaging lines to handle different carton sizes without replacing the cylinder.
Fine-tune the retract position during machine commissioning to achieve exact placement without adding external mechanical stops.
Dial in the exact retraction point for assembly tooling that needs flexible end-locations across multiple product fixtures.
Choose this 63 mm bore when your application requires the 1559 N pull force at 0.5 MPa, stepping up from a 50 mm bore that provides 825 N, or down from an 80 mm bore yielding 2268 N. The 50 mm adjustment range is ideal for machine setups requiring variable end-stops during commissioning, replacing the need to bolt on external stops or buy a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder. To match this ISO 15552 dimensionally interchangeable cylinder, specify the 63 mm bore, 145 mm stroke, PT G3/8 port, and the -S magnet. Because the 145 mm stroke is below the 300 mm threshold, side-load stress is manageable, but always ensure the M16x1.5 rod thread is aligned to avoid binding. For applications requiring true load-holding without continuous air pressure, consider the SAIL or BSAI locking variants instead of relying on the adjuster.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 63 mm bore cylinder provides 1559 N of pull force and 2182 N of push force. It can reach a maximum push force of 2805 N at 0.9 MPa.
The rear adjuster acts as a mechanical stop that lets you shorten the 145 mm nominal stroke by up to 50 mm, providing a usable travel window of 95-145 mm. It only sets the end position and does not lock the load without live air pressure.
