The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ63 Adjustable Stroke Air Cylinder SAIJ63AX290-50 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 290mm 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 SAIJ63X290-50 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear-mounted stroke adjuster. It provides a usable travel window of 240 to 290 mm, allowing you to dial back the nominal 290 mm stroke by up to 50 mm. This bore size delivers a robust 2182 N of push force at 0.7 MPa, making it well suited for medium-duty positioning tasks.
The piston rod is constructed from SUS420J2 stainless steel for high durability, and pneumatic connections use PT tapered threads. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides for flexible switch mounting. While the rear adjuster and variable air cushions fine-tune the end-of-stroke deceleration, neither component will hold a load without live air pressure.

Dial in the exact 240 to 290 mm travel distance during product line changeovers without replacing the cylinder or adding external mechanical stops.
Leverage the 50 mm rear adjustment screw to fine-tune the retract end-position precisely during machine commissioning.
Utilize the 2182 N push force at 0.7 MPa to drive medium-duty clamping and assembly operations that require flexible stroke limits.
Choose this 63 mm bore if your application requires more thrust than a 50 mm cylinder (which provides 1374 N push at 0.7 MPa) but you want to avoid the larger footprint of an 80 mm option. The 50 mm adjustment range is ideal for machine setups requiring variable end-stops or frequent product-size changeovers, eliminating the need to physically swap out a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder during commissioning.
Because the total stroke is 290 mm, an external guide is recommended to prevent excessive side-loading on the rod. For exact ISO 15552 interchangeability, match the 63 mm bore, 290 mm stroke, 50 mm adjustment, PT port thread, and Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, or TCM2 mounting options. Note that this unit lacks a magnet; if position sensing is needed, an -S version with CMSE reed or DMSE electronic sensors is required. For load-holding without continuous air pressure, consider the SAIL or BSAI series instead.
Quick checklist
At 0.7 MPa operating pressure, this 63 mm bore cylinder generates 2182 N of push force and 1402 N of pull force. It can reach a maximum of 2805 N push force at 0.9 MPa.
The rear adjuster acts as a stopper that lets you shorten the effective stroke by up to 50 mm, creating a usable travel window of 240 to 290 mm. It only sets the travel end and does not lock the load without live air pressure.
