The AirTAC Airtac Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ32 SAIJ32BX160-100S is a genuine double-acting ISO 15552 profile-barrel air cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 160mm stroke, G1/8 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 SAIJ32X160-100-S is a double-acting, single-rod ISO 15552 profile cylinder equipped with a rear stroke adjuster. It features a 32 mm bore delivering 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa, alongside a generous 160 mm nominal stroke that can be dialed back by up to 100 mm, yielding a highly flexible 60-160 mm usable travel window. This wide adjustment range is ideal for applications requiring significant end-position variance without swapping hardware.
Built with a SUS304 stainless steel rod (option B) and PT tapered ports, this extruded aluminum profile cylinder integrates seamlessly into existing setups. The integrated magnet (-S) supports position sensing via AirTAC CMSE reed or DMSE electronic solid-state switches fitted into the dual-side sensor grooves. It utilizes a reduced mounting subset of Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2, omitting FB, CA, CB, and CR options.

Dial in the 60-160 mm travel window during format size changes on packaging lines, avoiding the need to physically swap cylinders for different product lengths.
Fine-tune the exact retraction end-position during machine setup, using the 100 mm adjustment range to perfectly align tooling without adding external stoppers.
Provide adaptable physical stops for light-duty assembly tasks, utilizing the 402 N push force to consistently press parts against an adjustable mechanical stop.
Select this 32 mm bore model when you need precise thrust around 402 N (push at 0.5 MPa) combined with extensive on-machine travel tuning. If your application requires less force, stepping down is not an option below 32 mm in this series, but stepping up to a 40 mm bore yields 628 N. Choose the SAIJ adjustable format over a fixed-stroke SAI when commissioning a new machine or accommodating product changeovers demands a variable end-stop rather than machining custom spacers.
Because the nominal stroke is 160 mm, external guiding is recommended to prevent excessive rod side-loading. Remember that the rear adjuster acts purely as a mechanical stop to set the retraction end-point; it does not lock or hold the load without continuous air pressure. For load-holding requirements, consider an AirTAC SAIL pneumatic lock, a BSAI clamp-lock cylinder, or an external pilot-operated check valve. This unit is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552.
Quick checklist
At 0.5 MPa operating pressure, this 32 mm bore cylinder provides 402 N of push force and 345 N of pull force. At the maximum 1.0 MPa pressure, it delivers up to 82 kgf.
The rear adjuster screw allows you to shorten the 160 mm nominal stroke by up to 100 mm, creating a usable travel window of 60 to 160 mm. This stopper only sets the end position and does not lock the load without live air pressure.
