The AirTAC Airtac SAIJ63 Adjustable Stroke Air Cylinder SAIJ63X85-40 is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø63mm bore and 85mm 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 SAIJ63X85-40 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster, allowing you to dial back the nominal 85 mm travel to a precise usable window of 45-85 mm. Delivering 1559 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, it handles mid-range automation tasks with ease. The extruded aluminum barrel features sensor grooves on both sides for flexible switch placement.
This model utilizes a carbon steel piston rod with an M16x1.5 thread and a G3/8 port. The rear adjuster acts purely as a mechanical stop to fine-tune the retract end position during commissioning; it is not a locking device and will not hold a load without live air pressure. For load-holding requirements, consider the SAIL or BSAI series instead.

Dial in the exact retract distance from 45 to 85 mm during product format changes without physically replacing the actuator.
Fine-tune the final resting position at machine commissioning to achieve precise mechanical alignment against hard stops.
Adjust the effective travel window on the fly for automated assembly lines processing parts of slightly different lengths.
Choose this 63 mm bore cylinder when a 50 mm bore (982 N push at 0.5 MPa) lacks the necessary thrust, but an 80 mm bore (2513 N) would be physically oversized. The 40 mm adjustment range is ideal for applications requiring variable end-stops or frequent product changeovers, eliminating the need to swap out a fixed-stroke SAI cylinder. Ensure your mounting choice comes from the SAIJ subset: Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, or TCM2, as FB, CA, CB, and CR configurations are not supported.
To match this cylinder exactly for an ISO 15552 replacement, verify the 85 mm stroke, 40 mm adjuster, PT tapered port thread, and the absence of a magnet (non-S). Because the stroke is under 300 mm, side-load risks are moderate, but the M16x1.5 rod still requires proper external guiding if subjected to lateral forces.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 63 mm bore cylinder provides 1559 N of push force and 1402 N of pull force. It can deliver up to 2182 N of push force at 0.7 MPa.
The rear adjuster screw allows you to mechanically shorten the effective stroke from its 85 mm nominal length down to 45 mm. This creates a 45-85 mm usable travel window for fine-tuning the end position without adding external stops.
