The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ63 Adjustable Stroke Air Cylinder SAIJ63AX225-40S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 225mm 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 SAIJ63X225-40-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster that fine-tunes the travel window from 185 to 225 mm without adding external stops. It delivers a robust 2182N push force at 0.7 MPa, utilizing a 20mm carbon steel rod with an M16x1.5 thread. The barrel is machined from extruded aluminum and includes sensor grooves on both sides for straightforward positioning feedback.
This specific SKU is configured with a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod (option A) for enhanced corrosion resistance and features a built-in magnet (-S) compatible with AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic sensors. The rear adjustment mechanism functions purely as a travel stop to dial in end positions during commissioning; it does not lock or hold the load without live air pressure.

Dial in the 185-225mm travel window during machine setup to accommodate new product lengths without disassembling the actuator assembly.
Trim the retract stroke by up to 40mm to perfect the seating force against a workpiece, preventing damage during initial commissioning.
Act as an adjustable physical stop for product diverters on a conveyor, easily modifying the end position as package sizes change.
Choose this 63mm bore when 50mm falls short at 1374N push (0.5 MPa) or 80mm is excessive at 3518N push. The 40mm adjustment range is ideal for production lines running mixed product sizes, allowing you to reposition the end stop rapidly during changeovers instead of swapping the entire cylinder. For fixed travel requirements without the need for end-tuning, the standard SAI cylinder is a simpler alternative.
As a dimensionally interchangeable ISO 15552 cylinder, this model matches standard bore, stroke, and port specifications: 63mm bore, 225mm stroke, 40mm adjustment, PT G3/8 tapered ports, and an -S magnet. It supports a reduced mounting set of Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR. Because the 225mm stroke is relatively long, ensure you use an external guide to prevent excessive side loading on the rod. If your application requires true load holding without continuous air pressure, consider the SAIL pneumatic lock or BSAI clamp-lock series instead.
Quick checklist
At 0.7 MPa operating pressure, this 63mm bore cylinder provides a push force of 2182N and a pull force of 1402N. It can reach a maximum push force of 2805N at 1.0 MPa.
The rear adjuster acts as a mechanical stop that lets you shorten the effective travel from the nominal 225mm down to 185mm. It is a travel stop for fine-tuning end positions, not a lock, and cannot hold the load without live air pressure.
