The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ63 Adjustable Stroke Air Cylinder SAIJ63AX400-20S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 400mm 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 SAIJ63X400-20-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, providing a usable travel window of 380 to 400 mm for precise end-position tuning. Built with a 63 mm bore, it delivers 2182 N of push force at 0.7 MPa, making it suitable for medium-duty handling. The integrated -S magnet enables position sensing with AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic switches fitted into the dual sensor grooves.
This model features a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod for enhanced corrosion resistance and uses PT tapered port threads (G3/8). The rear adjuster acts purely as a mechanical stop to dial in the stroke during commissioning; it does not lock the load without live air. For load-holding requirements, an external pilot-operated check valve or a SAIL locking cylinder is required.

Dial in the 380-400 mm retract position during product size changes without swapping cylinders or repositioning hard stops.
Fine-tune the final end-of-stroke position at commissioning to achieve precise mechanical alignment without external spacers.
Drive medium-duty pushers with 2182 N of force at 0.7 MPa while making quick adjustments for varying package sizes.
Choose this 63 mm bore when a 50 mm cylinder (offering 1374 N push at 0.7 MPa) lacks the necessary thrust, but an 80 mm bore (3518 N) would be physically oversized. The 20 mm adjustment range is ideal for fine-tuning the retract end-position during machine setup or product changeover without adding external stops. If fixed travel is sufficient, a standard SAI cylinder simplifies the assembly.
When replacing an ISO 15552 cylinder, match the 63 mm bore, 400 mm stroke, 20 mm adjuster, G3/8 PT ports, and the -S magnet. The SAIJ mounting set includes Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2 (omitting FB, CA, CB, CR). Because the 400 mm stroke is substantial, the 20 mm rod diameter requires an external guide to prevent excessive side-loading on the unsupported length.
Quick checklist
The rear adjuster screw allows you to shorten the effective stroke by up to 20 mm, creating a usable travel window of 380 to 400 mm. It acts as a mechanical stop to fine-tune the end position and does not function as a lock.
At 0.7 MPa operating pressure, the SAIJ63X400-20-S provides 2182 N of push force and 1402 N of pull force. It can reach a maximum push force of 2805 N at 0.9 MPa.
