The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ63 Adjustable Stroke Air Cylinder SAIJ63AX260-50S 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 SAIJ63X260-50-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster. It provides a usable travel window of 210 to 260 mm, allowing you to dial back the nominal 260 mm stroke by up to 50 mm during commissioning. Equipped with a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod and a position magnet, it generates 1559 N of push force at 0.5 MPa.
This adjustable design eliminates the need to swap cylinders or bolt on external stops when fine-tuning end positions. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides for CMSE reed or DMSE electronic switches. The rear adjuster acts purely as a travel stop and does not hold the load without live air pressure.

Dial in the exact end position from 210 to 260 mm when switching product sizes on a packaging line, avoiding mechanical rebuilds.
Fine-tune the retract stop during commissioning to perfect the seating force of 1559 N without adding external stopper blocks.
Leverage the built-in magnet with DMSE solid-state sensors to confirm the adjusted end-of-travel position in automated assemblies.
Choose this 63 mm bore when you need 1559 N of thrust at 0.5 MPa, stepping up from the 50 mm bore which provides 982 N. The 50 mm adjustment range is ideal for machines handling frequent product-size changeovers, whereas a fixed SAI cylinder is better for rigid, single-purpose travel. To replace this unit, match the 63 mm bore, 260 mm stroke, PT tapered port threads, and the -S magnet option.
Mounting options include the reduced SAIJ set: Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR. Because the 260 mm stroke is substantial, always use an external guide to support the rod and prevent excessive side-loading. For load-holding without live air, select a SAIL or BSAI cylinder instead.
Quick checklist
A rear stopper screw lets you shorten the effective travel from 260 mm down to a minimum of 210 mm, giving a 50 mm tuning window. This stopper sets the end position but does not lock the load without live air pressure.
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, it provides 1559 N of push force and 1402 N of pull force. The maximum thrust is 318 kgf at 1.0 MPa.
