The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ63 Adjustable Stroke Air Cylinder SAIJ63BX140-40 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 140mm 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 SAIJ63X140-40 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear-mounted stroke adjuster. It provides a usable travel window of 100 to 140 mm, allowing you to dial back the nominal stroke by up to 40 mm during commissioning. Operating at 0.15 to 1.0 MPa, it delivers a push force of 1559 N and a pull force of 1402 N at 0.5 MPa. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides for flexible switch mounting.
This variant features a SUS304 stainless steel piston rod (code B) for superior corrosion resistance. The rod diameter is 20 mm with an M16x1.5 thread, designed to handle side loads effectively, though long unsupported strokes still require an external guide. The rear adjuster acts purely as a mechanical stop to set deceleration and end positions, so it does not hold the load without live air pressure. For load-holding requirements, consider the SAIL or BSAI series instead.

Dial in the exact retract distance between 100 and 140 mm to accommodate varying material thicknesses without repositioning the cylinder.
Quickly adjust the rear stopper during product size transitions on a packaging line, reducing downtime and avoiding external stop hardware.
Fine-tune the end-of-stroke position during initial setup to perfect timing sequences and prevent mechanical interference.
Select this 63 mm bore cylinder when your application requires precise end-position tuning without swapping components. The 40 mm adjustment window is ideal for product changeovers on a line, letting you fine-tune the retract stroke on the fly. If you need less force, stepping down to a 50 mm bore yields 825 N of pull force at 0.5 MPa. If your machine requires higher thrust, stepping up to an 80 mm bore provides 2268 N of pull force.
When replacing an ISO 15552 cylinder, match the 63 mm bore, 140 mm stroke, 40 mm adjustment, PT tapered port threads, and the desired mounting accessory. SAIJ supports a reduced mounting set including Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR. This model does not include a magnet, so position sensing requires adding the -S option to use CMSE reed or DMSE electronic sensors.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 63 mm bore cylinder generates a push force of 1559 N and a pull force of 1402 N. At its maximum rated pressure of 1.0 MPa, it can deliver up to 318 kgf.
The rear adjuster screw acts as a mechanical stop, allowing you to shorten the effective stroke from 140 mm down to 100 mm. It sets the travel end and deceleration point but does not lock or hold the load without continuous air pressure.
