The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ63 Adjustable Stroke Air Cylinder SAIJ63AX170-30 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 170mm 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 SAIJ63X170-30 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear-mounted stroke adjuster. It provides a 140-170 mm usable travel window, allowing you to dial back the 170 mm nominal stroke by up to 30 mm during commissioning. Equipped with a 20 mm piston rod and a PT G3/8 port, it generates 1559 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, fitting perfectly into medium-force pneumatic setups.
This unit uses an SUS420J2 stainless steel rod (option A) for enhanced durability against moisture compared to standard carbon steel. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides for direct mounting of CMSE reed or DMSE electronic switches. It offers variable air cushions at both ends to manage impact, but the rear screw acts only as a travel stop and does not hold the load without live air pressure.

Dial in the exact 140-170 mm end position during commissioning to perfect a pressing or clamping operation without external stops.
Quickly adjust the travel window on a packaging line when switching to a different product size, minimizing downtime.
Use the 30 mm trim range to set precise mechanical limits for testing or assembly fixtures that require flexible positioning.
Choose this 63 mm bore when your application requires more force than a 50 mm cylinder (which provides 825 N pull at 0.5 MPa) but does not need the bulk of an 80 mm unit (2268 N pull). The 30 mm adjustment range is ideal for product changeovers on a line, letting you set a new mechanical end-stop without swapping the cylinder or adding external stops. For load-holding without continuous air pressure, consider a SAIL (air-released lock) or BSAI (clamp-lock) cylinder instead. To match this ISO 15552 footprint exactly, specify the 63 mm bore, 170 mm stroke, 30 mm adjustment, PT G3/8 port, and your required mounting from the SAIJ set: Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, or TCM2.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 63 mm bore cylinder provides 1559 N of push force and 1402 N of pull force. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 2182 N.
The rear adjuster screw lets you mechanically shorten the effective stroke from the 170 mm nominal length down to 140 mm. This stopper only sets the travel end and deceleration; it does not lock the load without live air.
