The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ63 Adjustable Stroke Air Cylinder SAIJ63AX400-50S 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 SAIJ63X400-50-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear mechanical adjuster, allowing you to fine-tune the retract end-position without adding external stops. It provides a usable travel window of 350-400 mm, trimming up to 50 mm off the 400 mm nominal stroke. In the 63 mm bore class, it delivers 1559 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa and 2182 N at 0.7 MPa.
This variant features a SUS420J2 stainless steel rod for corrosion resistance and includes a magnet for position detection. The extruded aluminum barrel houses sensor grooves on both sides, supporting AirTAC CMSE reed and DMSE electronic solid-state switches. It uses PT tapered G3/8 ports and variable air cushions at both ends to manage deceleration.

Dial in the exact 350-400 mm retract position on packaging lines when switching product sizes, avoiding physical cylinder swaps.
Fine-tune the final end-position during machine commissioning to absorb mechanical tolerances without installing external bumpers.
Adjust the stroke length on the fly for diverting varying package widths on a conveyor belt without reprogramming the motion controller.
Choose this 63 mm bore adjustable cylinder when your application requires precise end-stop tuning during commissioning or frequent product changeovers, stepping up from the 50 mm bore (982 N pull at 0.5 MPa) for heavier loads. Because the 400 mm stroke is relatively long, ensure you use an external guide to prevent excessive rod side-loading, as the 20 mm rod and M16x1.5 thread can only compensate so much for lateral forces. The rear adjuster acts purely as a travel stop and does not hold the load without live air pressure; for true fail-safe load holding, select a SAIL or BSAI series cylinder instead. This SAIJ model uses a reduced mounting set (Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, TCM2) and is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 63 mm bore cylinder provides 1559 N of pull force and 2182 N at 0.7 MPa. The operational speed range is 30-800 mm/s.
The rear adjuster screw lets you shorten the 400 mm nominal stroke by up to 50 mm, creating a usable travel window of 350-400 mm. It functions as a mechanical stop to set the end position, but it does not lock the load without continuous air pressure.
