About the Airtac SAI100 Standard Air Cylinder SAI100X160S
The AirTAC SAI100X160-S is a double-acting ISO 15552 profile cylinder featuring a 100 mm bore and 160 mm stroke. It generates 5497 N of push force at 0.7 MPa, making it well-suited for heavy-duty positioning and high-load actuation tasks.
This variant includes an integrated magnet for non-contact position sensing using CMSE or DMSE series switches, which seat neatly into the dual-sided sensor grooves on the extruded aluminum barrel. The standard piston rod is constructed from carbon steel, and the body utilizes a PT tapered port thread (G1/2) for robust pneumatic connectivity.

Where the Airtac SAI100 Standard Air Cylinder SAI100X160S Is Used
Heavy Stamping
Provides the necessary 5497 N push force to operate medium-tonnage stamping and forming presses reliably.
Pallet Diverting
Delivers robust actuation to push heavy loaded pallets across conveyor lanes in high-throughput logistics hubs.
Clamp Actuation
Drives large-scale clamping mechanisms holding heavy metal workpieces securely during CNC machining.
Is the Airtac SAI100 Standard Air Cylinder SAI100X160S the Right Cylinder?
Select this 100 mm bore when an application demands more power than the 80 mm class (3518 N at 0.7 MPa) can provide, but you want to avoid stepping up to the larger 125 mm footprint. The 160 mm stroke provides substantial extension without requiring excessive mounting space. Because it is dimensionally interchangeable per ISO 15552, it serves as a direct drop-in replacement for other ISO 15552 profile cylinders.
For any application requiring the load to be held securely in place during a loss of air pressure, note that the standard SAI does not lock the piston. In such cases, specify the SAIL (air-released lock) variant or utilize an external rod lock to prevent drift.
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.
