The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ63 Adjustable Stroke Air Cylinder SAIJ63AX260-20 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 260mm 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 SAIJ63X260-20 is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster. It delivers 1559 N of push force and 1402 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa, making it a robust choice for medium-duty automation. The integrated rear stopper allows you to trim the effective travel, providing a usable window of 240-260 mm for precise end-position calibration.
This unit features a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod (material code A) for enhanced corrosion resistance and carries a G3/8 PT tapered port. It retains the standard extruded aluminum barrel with sensor grooves on both sides. While it lacks a factory magnet, the housing fully supports adding CMSE reed or DMSE electronic sensors if position detection becomes necessary later.

Dial in the 240-260 mm travel window during product size transitions to set exact retract positions without changing hardware.
Use the rear stopper to fine-tune the end-of-stroke deceleration point at commissioning, preventing harsh impacts on tooling.
Synchronize multiple 63 mm bore actuators delivering 1559 N of force by individually trimming each stroke by up to 20 mm.
Choose this 63 mm bore when a 50 mm cylinder (offering 982 N push at 0.5 MPa) lacks the necessary thrust, but an 80 mm bore (2513 N) would be physically oversized. The 20 mm adjustment range is ideal for fine-tuning the retract end during machine setup or product changeover, eliminating the need to swap cylinders or bolt on external stops. For any required load-holding without live air pressure, note that this rear adjuster acts only as a travel stop and not a brake; you would need to specify a SAIL or BSAI cylinder instead.
Because the 260 mm stroke creates an extended lever arm, ensure external guiding is used to prevent excessive side-loading on the SUS420J2 rod. When matching this cylinder for an ISO 15552 interchange, verify the 63 mm bore, 260 mm stroke, 20 mm adjust, G3/8 PT port, and your required mounting style. The SAIJ series supports Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2 mounts, deliberately omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR options.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 63 mm bore cylinder generates 1559 N of push force and 1402 N of pull force. It operates at a speed range of 30-800 mm/s.
The rear adjuster acts as a mechanical stop that lets you shorten the nominal 260 mm stroke by up to 20 mm, creating a usable travel window of 240-260 mm. It only sets the travel end and does not lock or hold the load without continuous air pressure.
