About the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160AX100
The AirTAC SAI160X100 is a robust double-acting profile cylinder engineered to the ISO 15552 standard, offering a direct mounting interface for heavy-duty automation. Operating at 0.7 MPa, it generates a substantial push force of 14074 N, making it well-suited for high-mass displacement tasks over its 100 mm stroke.
This configuration features a SUS420J2 stainless steel piston rod (material code A) for enhanced corrosion resistance in demanding environments. Fluid is supplied via PT tapered ports, and while this unit lacks a magnet, the extruded aluminum barrel includes dual sensor grooves ready for CMSE or DMSE switches if position feedback is later required.

Where the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160AX100 Is Used
Heavy Stamping
Provides the immense clamping thrust required to hold large metal plates securely during heavy industrial stamping operations.
Injection Molding
Handles the rugged extraction of large molded components from heavy-duty injection molding machinery.
Press Ejection
Delivers reliable, high-force ejection of finished parts from large-scale hydraulic and pneumatic presses.
Is the Airtac SAI160 Standard Cylinder SAI160AX100 the Right Cylinder?
Selecting this 160 mm bore provides immense thrust; stepping down to the 125 mm bore yields 8590 N at 0.7 MPa, whereas the larger 200 mm bore offers 21991 N. For applications requiring the cylinder to maintain a load position without constant air pressure, a standard SAI will drift, so you must specify the SAIL variant with an air-released lock or the BSAI bidirectional clamp-lock.
Ensure your system matches the 160 mm bore specifications: a 100 mm stroke, PT G3/4 port threads, and an M36x2 rod thread. Because this specific build uses a SUS420J2 rod, it is ideal for environments where standard carbon steel might pit or degrade.
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.
