The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ63 Adjustable Stroke Air Cylinder SAIJ63AX165-10 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 165mm 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 SAIJ63X165-10 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear-mounted stroke adjuster. It provides a 1559N push force at 0.5 MPa and uses a PT tapered G3/8 port. The built-in rear stopper allows you to trim the effective travel within a 155-165mm window, giving you precise end-position control without adding external stops.
This unit features a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod (material code A) for improved corrosion resistance. It operates at speeds of 30-800 mm/s and includes variable air cushions at both ends to decelerate the load. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides, ready for CMSE reed or DMSE electronic switches if a magnet is added later.

Quickly adjust the stroke by up to 10mm on a packaging line when switching to a slightly different product size.
Securely position workpieces with 1559N of push force while fine-tuning the clamping depth on the fly.
Choose this 63mm bore when a 50mm cylinder (offering 982N push at 0.5 MPa) lacks the necessary thrust, but an 80mm bore (2513N push) would be physically oversized. The 10mm adjustment range is ideal for fine-tuning the retracted position during machine commissioning or product changeover, replacing the need to swap out a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder. Remember that the rear adjuster acts only as a travel stop and does not hold the load without live air; for true pneumatic locking, consider the SAIL or BSAI series.
When replacing an ISO 15552 cylinder, match the 63mm bore, 165mm nominal stroke, PT port threads, and mounting style. SAIJ supports Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2 mounts, but omits FB, CA, CB, and CR. As this is a 165mm stroke, it is relatively short, but always ensure adequate external guiding if the load is heavy or offset.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 63mm bore cylinder provides 1559N of push force and 1402N of pull force. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 2182N.
The rear adjuster screw acts as a mechanical stop, allowing you to shorten the nominal 165mm stroke by up to 10mm. This creates a usable travel window of 155-165mm for fine-tuning the end position without replacing the cylinder.
