The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ63 Adjustable Stroke Air Cylinder SAIJ63X550-10 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 550mm 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 SAIJ63X550-10 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, allowing you to fine-tune the end-of-travel position. With a 550 mm nominal stroke and a 10 mm adjustment range, it provides a usable travel window of 540-550 mm for precise positioning without adding external stops. It features a carbon steel piston rod and PT tapered ports.
Delivering 2182 N of push force at 0.7 MPa, this bore size handles substantial workloads. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides for flexible mounting of CMSE or DMSE switches, though this specific SKU is configured without a magnet. The rear adjuster acts purely as a travel stop to set deceleration and end position, not as a lock to hold the load without live air pressure.

Dial in the exact end position within the 540-550 mm window during machine setup to perfect the stroke length without machining new hard stops.
Quickly adjust the rear stopper by up to 10 mm on a packaging line when handling slightly different box sizes on the fly.
Utilize the 2182 N push force at 0.7 MPa for pressing or forming tasks where a precise, adjustable end-of-stroke position is critical.
Choose this 63 mm bore when a 50 mm bore (offering 1374 N push at 0.7 MPa) lacks the necessary thrust, but an 80 mm bore (3518 N push) would be physically oversized. The 10 mm adjustable window is ideal for applications requiring minor commissioning tweaks or product changeovers, avoiding the need to physically swap out a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder. To match this ISO 15552 footprint exactly, specify the 63 mm bore, 550 mm stroke, 10 mm adjustment, PT port thread, and no magnet.
Because the stroke is 550 mm, the 20 mm diameter carbon steel rod will experience amplified side-loading if the load is unsupported. An external guide mechanism is strongly recommended to prevent premature seal wear and binding. If your application requires true load-holding without continuous air pressure, consider an AirTAC SAIL or BSAI cylinder, as the SAIJ adjuster is not a braking device.
Quick checklist
It features a rear adjusting screw that mechanically stops the piston up to 10 mm short of its 550 mm nominal stroke, giving an effective travel range of 540-550 mm. The cylinder remains double-acting, and the screw functions as a stop, not a lock.
At 0.5 MPa it provides 1559 N push and 1402 N pull. At 0.7 MPa, the push force increases to 2182 N, with a maximum push force of 2805 N at 0.9 MPa.
