The AirTAC Airtac Adjustable Cylinder SAIJ32 SAIJ32BX160-30 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 SAIJ32X160-30 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a rear stroke adjuster that allows you to dial back the 160 mm nominal stroke by up to 30 mm, creating a precise 130-160 mm usable travel window. It delivers 402 N of push force at 0.5 MPa and uses a G1/8 port paired with a 12 mm rod.
This variant is built with a SUS304 stainless steel rod for superior corrosion resistance and utilizes PT tapered port threads. The extruded aluminum barrel includes sensor grooves on both sides, allowing you to mount CMSE reed or DMSE electronic switches if needed, though this specific SKU ships without a magnet.

Quickly adjust the 130-160 mm travel window to accommodate slight variations in product sizes on a packaging line without swapping hardware.
Fine-tune the exact retracted position during machine commissioning to prevent crashes and ensure precise mechanical alignment.
Dial in the specific stroke length needed for testing different actuation depths on light-duty assembly equipment.
Choose this 32 mm bore when an application requires precise end-position tuning during commissioning or product changeover without adding external stops. If your setup needs more force, stepping up to the 40 mm bore yields 628 N of push force at 0.5 MPa. Because the stroke is 160 mm, side-load stress is moderate, but always ensure adequate external guiding for rigid loads.
Remember that the rear adjuster functions strictly as a travel stop, not a locking device; it cannot hold a load without continuous air pressure. For true load-holding, consider the SAIL or BSAI series. This cylinder accepts Basic, FA, LB, TC, FTC, TCM1, and TCM2 mounts, omitting FB and rear pivot options.
Quick checklist
An external screw at the rear of the cylinder acts as a mechanical stop, allowing you to shorten the effective stroke by up to 30 mm. This provides a usable travel range of 130 to 160 mm, which is set mechanically rather than by pneumatic pressure.
At a standard operating pressure of 0.5 MPa, the SAIJ32X160-30 provides 402 N of push force and 345 N of pull force. It can reach a maximum push force of 724 N at 0.9 MPa.
