The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ63 Adjustable Stroke Air Cylinder SAIJ63AX180-75 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 180mm 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 SAIJ63X180-75 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 75 mm. This creates a highly flexible usable-travel window between 105 and 180 mm, letting you dial in exact end positions during commissioning without swapping out the barrel or adding bulky external stops. Equipped with a G3/8 port and a 20 mm piston rod, it delivers a robust 1559 N of push force and 1402 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, making it well suited for moderate to heavy actuation tasks.
This specific configuration utilizes a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod (material code A) for superior corrosion resistance compared to standard carbon steel. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides for flexible mounting of CMSE reed or DMSE electronic solid-state switches, though this particular SKU is specified without a magnet. The rear adjuster acts purely as a mechanical stop to set the retract position, working in tandem with the built-in variable air cushions to decelerate the load at the end of travel.

Dial in the exact retract position within the 105-180 mm window during commissioning or product size changes, eliminating the need to physically swap cylinders on the line.
Use the 75 mm rear adjuster to fine-tune the stroke end-point for multi-format packaging or machining operations without adding external mechanical stops.
Leverage the SUS420J2 stainless steel rod to reliably drive tooling or clamps in environments where moisture or light coolant splash would damage standard carbon steel rods.
Choose this 63 mm bore adjustable-stroke unit when your application requires on-the-fly end-position tuning or frequent product changeovers, stepping up from a 50 mm bore that provides 982 N push force at 0.5 MPa. The 75 mm adjustment range is particularly valuable for prototyping or accommodating multiple product sizes on a single conveyor line. For load-holding requirements without live air pressure, note that neither the rear adjuster nor the air cushions function as a lock; you should instead specify an AirTAC SAIL or BSAI cylinder.
When replacing an ISO 15552 cylinder, match the 63 mm bore, 180 mm nominal stroke, 75 mm adjustment range, PT tapered port threads, and the reduced SAIJ mounting set (Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, TCM2). Because this model omits the FB, CA, CB, and CR mounts, verify your existing bracket compatibility. The 20 mm rod and M16x1.5 thread provide excellent side-load capacity, but for any stroke at or above 300 mm, always use an external guide to prevent rod deflection.
Quick checklist
The rear adjuster is a mechanical stop that allows you to shorten the nominal 180 mm stroke by up to 75 mm, providing a usable travel window of 105 to 180 mm. It sets the retract end position and must be used with live air pressure, as it does not lock the load.
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, the SAIJ63X180-75 provides 1559 N of push force and 1402 N of pull force. It can deliver up to 2182 N of push force at 0.7 MPa.
