The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ63 Adjustable Stroke Air Cylinder SAIJ63AX260-30S 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 SAIJ63X260-30-S is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster. It provides a usable travel window of 230 to 260 mm, letting you dial back the nominal 260 mm stroke by up to 30 mm during commissioning without adding external stops. Delivering 1559 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, it handles robust actuation while maintaining a standard ISO 15552 mounting footprint.
This variant features a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance and PT tapered port threads. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides, and the integrated -S magnet operates seamlessly with AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE solid-state sensors. It supports a mounting subset of Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2.

Dial in the 230 to 260 mm travel window to accommodate new product lengths on a packaging line without physically swapping the actuator.
Fine-tune the retract stroke by up to 30 mm during setup to compensate for mechanical wear or sensor drift over time.
Leverage the 1559 N push force at 0.5 MPa to seat components, using the adjustable stop to regulate the exact pressing depth.
Choose this 63 mm bore when 50 mm models fall short—offering 982 N at 0.5 MPa—and before stepping to 80 mm which provides 2513 N. The adjustable stroke is ideal for product changeovers or fine-tuning end positions on the fly, avoiding the need to swap out a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder. Since the stroke is 260 mm, ensure adequate external guiding to prevent excessive side loading on the rod.
For position holding without continuous air pressure, note that the rear adjuster acts only as a travel stop, not a lock. You will need an external rod lock, a pilot-operated check valve, or an AirTAC SAIL/BSAI cylinder for secure load holding. This model uses PT ports and is dimensionally interchangeable with ISO 15552 cylinders.
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. It can reach up to 2182 N push at 0.7 MPa.
The rear adjuster screw lets you shorten the nominal 260 mm stroke by up to 30 mm, creating a 230 to 260 mm usable travel window. It acts as a mechanical stop and does not lock the load without live air pressure.
