The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ63 Adjustable Stroke Air Cylinder SAIJ63AX165-50 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 SAIJ63X165-50 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear-mounted stroke adjuster that allows you to trim the effective travel back by up to 50 mm. This yields a usable stroke window of 115 to 165 mm, letting you dial in the exact retract position at commissioning without swapping out the barrel or adding external stops. Operating at 0.5 MPa, it delivers 1559 N of pull force and 2182 N of push force, making it well-suited for medium-duty manipulation tasks.
This SKU is configured with a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod (material code A) for superior corrosion resistance over standard carbon steel. Pneumatic connections use a PT tapered G3/8 port, and the extruded aluminum barrel incorporates sensor grooves on both sides for flexible switch mounting. The rear adjuster functions strictly as a mechanical stop to set the end-of-travel position; it does not lock or hold the load without live air pressure.

Quickly adapt the retract distance by up to 50 mm when switching between product sizes on the same conveyor, eliminating the need for physical cylinder swaps.
Fine-tune the end position during initial commissioning to perfectly align a 1559 N pull-force operation without machining external stopper blocks.
Use the 115 to 165 mm travel window to adjust the retract depth for multi-stage assembly processes within a single ISO 15552 footprint.
Select this 63 mm bore when your application requires the 1559 N pull force at 0.5 MPa (or 1402 N if dropping down to a 50 mm bore) but demands an adaptable end-stop for product changeovers. The 50 mm adjustment range is ideal for lines running multiple product sizes, replacing the need to physically swap a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder. Because the nominal stroke is 165 mm, side-loading is minimal, but always ensure the load is guided to prevent rod binding.
For an exact ISO 15552 dimensional replacement, match the 63 mm bore, 165 mm stroke, 50 mm adjustment range, PT G3/8 port, and the SUS420J2 stainless steel rod. Mounting options are limited to the Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2 interface sets, omitting the FB, CA, CB, and CR styles. If your setup requires true load-holding without continuous air pressure, consider the SAIL or BSAI series instead of relying on this adjuster.
Quick checklist
It features a rear external adjusting screw that acts as a mechanical stop, allowing you to shorten the nominal 165 mm stroke by up to 50 mm. This creates a usable travel window of 115 to 165 mm so you can fine-tune the retract position without changing the cylinder.
At a standard operating pressure of 0.5 MPa, this 63 mm bore double-acting cylinder provides 2182 N of push force and 1559 N of pull force. It can reach up to 2805 N push force at its maximum 1.0 MPa pressure.
