About the Airtac SAI100 Standard Air Cylinder SAI100X160
The AirTAC SAI100X160 is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a 100mm bore and 160mm stroke. It delivers a robust 3927N of push force at 0.5MPa, making it well-suited for heavy-duty positioning and high-load automation tasks. The extruded aluminum barrel design integrates sensor grooves on both sides for flexible switch mounting.
This specific configuration is built with a standard carbon steel piston rod and utilizes PT tapered thread ports (G1/2). For environments requiring higher heat resistance, the standard TPU seals can be swapped for Viton (H) options, and the unit is fully dimensionally interchangeable with other ISO 15552 profile cylinders.

Where the Airtac SAI100 Standard Air Cylinder SAI100X160 Is Used
Heavy-Duty Pressing
Provides the necessary 3927N push force at 0.5MPa for securely seating bearings, stamping components, and assembling heavy mechanical units.
Material Handling Diverters
Actuates large-scale conveyor sorting gates and heavy pallet stops where a 160mm stroke is required to clear wide product traffic.
Automated Welding Clamps
Positions and holds substantial welding fixtures or structural frames, utilizing the 100mm bore's high thrust capacity for stable part presentation.
Is the Airtac SAI100 Standard Air Cylinder SAI100X160 the Right Cylinder?
Selecting this 100mm bore provides 3927N push force at 0.5MPa; if your application requires less force, stepping down to an 80mm bore yields 2513N, while moving up to a 125mm bore offers 6136N. This 160mm stroke is well within standard limits and provides a compact motion range for robust machinery.
Because this is a double-acting cylinder, it relies on continuous air pressure to hold its position; if air is lost or the valve is centered, the piston will drift. For applications that require true load holding without live pressure, consider the SAIL (air-released lock) or BSAI (bidirectional clamp-lock) variants. This model uses a G1/2 port, PT tapered threads, standard carbon steel rod, and does not include a magnet (-S) for sensors.
Quick checklist
- ✓ Required force at your working pressure
- ✓ Stroke and mounting space
- ✓ Port/thread type (PT/NPT/G)
- ✓ Magnet (-S) for sensors?
- ✓ Side load — consider a guided cylinder
Installation & Maintenance Notes
- check Use clean air filtered to 40µm or finer.
- check Keep within 0.15 – 1.0 MPa operating pressure.
- check Avoid side load on the piston rod.
- check Adjust end cushion screws for smooth stops.
- check Use correct mounting accessory (FA/FB/CA/CB/LB/TC).
- check Installation by qualified personnel per AirTAC docs.
